- I'm not familiar with any theories involving the Sun God Ra, but I
- think you are jumping off half-cocked. I know that any reaction which
- requires three simultaneous inputs is highly improbable. But that has
- nothing to do with what I was trying to say. In that reaction the
- branching ratio must be very different from the ratio in the standard
- d + d reaction. Period. I did not propose pulling bosons OR bogons
- out of probability space, or attempt to justify Yang's theories.
