Fyi, mr debunker:
Just one point among thousands....Toyota corporation has patents, patents that have been applied for, been evaluated and passed scientific muster...and have been granted..on atomic transmutation. For a good 5 years now.
There is absolutely 0 requirement for a patent to pass any scientific muster or viability is only a condition in that the patent must be "useful" but the patent office is woefully ill equipped to determine that for all but the most basic stuff. No one cares i anyone patents something impossible as no one is going to fight to nullify said patent.
FYI, you know that transmutation is essentially Nuclear Fusion? It is not a new concept, but this would be a very novel implementation if it actually works all the time. Fusion does not have to release excess energy, that only happens if there are excess particles converted to energy.
