....no more than the dirt you are walking on. Personally, I think it's hogwash, but then again you never know. :)

Maybe Chernobyl produced Midas bacteria that eat unstable isotopes and produce gold as a waste product.

Already knew about the particle accelerator method; costs more to make gold then what gold's worth using this method, Odin. Supposedly the Russian folk figured out an extremely cheap way to transmute matter to other matter (if you actually can believe them; I don't, but I'm biased against these folk due to the former cold war). :)

The value of all gold in Fort Knox is only a fraction of US deficit alone.
Seems pretty invaluable already.

You assume too much Nidihogg (i.e., what gold? ;) ). :)

I don't really care how people scream the value of something, since something is only as valuable as one is willing to pay. Knowledge of something being "worth something" based off of what a person or persons say(s) influences how "valuable" it is. Nothing is inherently valuable, it's only as valuable as people are made to believe it is and are willing to pay (except human life).

Just in case there is any doubt, (in the article they were going to release more information and start looking for investor/suckers soon), a quote from their site and article --The invention relates to chemical transmutation of radioactive isotopes and transformation, that is to artificially produce some chemical elements from other elements. In particular, the method allows to obtain rare and valuable elements: polonium, radon, francium, radium, and actinides – actinium, thorium, protactinium, uranium, neptunium, and various isotopes of these and other elements.

Francium half life 22 minutes
Radium about 3.6 days
Actinium 227 22 years, 228 6 hours
protactinium about 1 minute etc...

I agree, total hogwash but there is always a sucker born every minute...

Now if only they can use this technology to create Element 115 and red mercury. We can then go to Alpha Centauri tomorrow and be home for lunch by Sunday. ;)
