Once the device is demonstrably showing over-unity, Dr. Lerner, the issue won’t be one of science, but technology, and you won’t have to convince the physics establishment, but possible licensees of your design. I think that will be a much easier process, as there will always be companies eager to get in on this kind of groundbreaking “product” with such obvious benefits, companies without the kind of entrenched bias against the underlying process that may exist in the scientific world.

Heck, the jokers at Blacklight Power already have actual commercial licensees for a completely undemonstrated “product” that defies basic physical laws! (And if I recall correctly, even the cold fusion folks had money given to them by power companies.) Surely if scam artists like that can convince people to give them money without any sort of prototype, a genuine, proven technology with solid data behind it will have people lining up. The world is hungry for clean cheap power. Successful aneutronic fusion will simply be too valuable to ignore or suppress.
