- >From what I understand of the M&F theory, there is no reason why two
- hydrinos could not chemically combine the same way the larger cousins

- would release more energy than would the larger cousin equiv., and the
- bond energies for the hydrino dimer would be higher. We still have
- not heard from Dr. Farrell as to why the hydrinoes are chemically
- inert...
