Here is a direct quote from Publication number: US 2011/0005506 “An apparatus method according to claim 7, characterized in that said nickel powder filled metal tube is a *copper tube, said copper tube further including at least a heating electrical resistance,* said tube being encompassed by a jacket (7) including either water....” Oh well, let's not let a few difficult little factual problems get in the way of the deification of this genius inventor ...
