The really weird thing about time itself is one cannot know which direction time actually flows; we think it flows forward - past to future, but there is no way to know if the opposite is really the true direction - future to past. There was a sci-fi book decades ago that explored this theory.

The article you quoted says near the end, that the results are not uniformly reproducible. P> It looks like another case of...
"Cold Fusion"

At the macroscopic level, entropy increases; statistically.

At the level of a single quantum mechanical state-to-state conversion, time reversal invariable holds.

If that was in English, I’d say you agree - but then you might be citing it from the past, we just cannot discern the direction of your comment.

Well, it was worth a try.   (You weren't doing 119 through the time/space continuum -- like Judge Jeanine Pirro -- were you?)

The phenomenon has been reproduced many times. It happens, there’s no denying.

That’s all one can say with certainty. There may be something to cold fusion, too, but too minuscule to be worth much on its own.

You missed the pun: remember from freshman chem or physics lab, the "latent heat of fusion"... And in *cold* water, so cold fusion, ha ha.

I think going back to 1978 as an 11 year old would be just about right...
