- I can offer an explanation, in terms of the Mills theory (which I don't
- believe):
- The Mills theory explains the excess heat as coming mainly from hydrogen atoms
- falling to a lower energy state, one of the 1/N states. For this to work, the
- resulting hydrinos would have to remain as such indefinitely, otherwise you'd
- reabsorb the heat, and no excess. This would explain why Mills does not
- believe in a biological hazard. For the hydrino to do something chemical, it
- would have to get back up to a normal state, or be ionised.
