I wish someone would actually try to reproduce the Farnsworth fusion experiments which really looked like they worked!!!!!

He was quite a genius, and the real inventor of television, not RCA. I can't understand why his experiments have never been tried to be duplicated. It makes no sense at all for them to have been ignored due to current NIH.

Great read, and you know what they say. If you want something done....

There is an active community of amateur open source hobbyists researchers, several of whom have gotten fusors up & running & pumping out neutrons. I don't know how big or powerful the largest ones are, but I don't think anyone's found any hard theoretical limits so far.
