This story very likely relates to the Rossi/Parkhomov results (which probably explains why Mats posted it). Although cosmologists do not know the composition of dark matter... "We know that dark matter is needed in our Galaxy to keep the stars and gas rotating at their observed speeds....However, we still do not know what dark matter is composed of. This is one of the most important science questions of our times"... yet, all of us appreciated that over 90% of the "light matter" - that which is visible - is hydrogen. Therefore, a logical conclusion is that dark matter is most likely a degernate from of light matter, meaning that it is mostly hydrogen in an different and denser form. The controlled conversion of LM to DM (light matter to dark matter, or hydrogen to DDL) is the prime candidate for the power source behind LENR, since there is no high energy radiation from the reaction - and since slight transmutation which is seen - is entirely incidental and a side effect which is thousands of times too low to supply the excess heat seen.
