    You are welcome.
    Sorry for being so obscure, but I hope it was fun to figure it out.

    This fusion process involve neutronic fusion, not the aneutronic fusion/fission of Focus Fusion. FF could not be used for this unless alpha particles could be used instead of neutrons.

    If you burn different fuel you get neutronic fusion.

    No offense Tasmodevil44, but it seems you like to speak (write) alone a lot 😉

    There are two different processes:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_arc_gasification
    disposes common organic waste by gasifying it into flammable compounds that is totally unrelated to fusion or nuclear waste.

    Another method is using fusion to burn up wasted fission fuel:

    In case you read the news, the boy who constructed its fusion reactor at home did not reach a point where he generates more energy than the fusion outputs. Nobody has constructed this type of reactor yet. And claiming the output energy is even further down the road.
    Still it is possible to construct one that demonstrates fusion itself, even if the output is negligible. I don’t think you can find a guide or tutorial that explains in detailed steps how to build one, so you will have to learn a lot and design one yourself. A hobby group on the internet could help, I don’t know where to find one, but try looking here:

    Btw about the CFB, you need to buy the expensive branded ones from Philips if you want them operating for long time. The no-named ones burn out pretty quickly.

    What I meant that there will always be short-term problems that might seem more important than investing into long term solutions.

    An about Oxigen, remember “bottled water”. It might even make sense someday if pollution keeps up.

    An how do you think people are gonna pay for oxigen, nano-defence and war on the moon if all the money is wasted on grid decentralization? 😉

    Rational being should consider lack of evidence as disproof, because there is no way you can prove a negative like “there is no cold fusion”. You can only say “we tried some things, and they did not work”.
    Of course investing some effort into research is always a good idea, but priority is given to most perspective approaches. The problem is that “understood” and “perspective” is mixed up.

    This video is a very nice definition of open-mindedness,
    and explains why open-minded people should use EVIDENCE to consider any ideas:

    “Built it, and they will come!”

    This seems like a nice new feature for appliances in 5-10 ears or so. Having solar battery system at home might help push for it sooner.
