The bullet stopped cold...

When the capital development of a country becomes a by-product of the activities of a casino, the job is likely to be ill-done. — John M. Keynes

Re: Beware the Silver Bullet ... (none / 1)

Just read up on in - apparently research is ongoing but hampered by lack of mainstream scientific acceptance because there is no theory to explain the results. What I have not been able to find out is whether the observed effects are significant enough to create a worthwhile energy source in any case - it seems we are talking about very marginal unexplained effects - not an energy bonanza of any sort.
