Lithium

But take the example of heparin.

And you make if from lithium.

We can say lithium in elements.

like lithium for high performance batteries.

lithium, three protons, and so on.

Heparin a blood thinner, a pharmaceutical product starts out in artisanal workshops

These are all the patients that started lithium.

This is a report about a drug called lithium.

So, we I can't tell you lithium doesn't work.

And lithium is in sea water. That's the yellow line.

So we'll add lithium giving it a value of 3.

Ten percent of the people in our system took lithium.

And he took lithium, and he went down the line.

You don't want to be a lithium patient this time.

Worse, some of the suppliers realized that they could substitute a product which mimicked heparin in tests.

This substitute cost nine dollars a pound, whereas real heparin, the real ingredient, cost 900 dollars a pound.

You've got this core fluid, a lithium beryilium salt, with uranium tetrafluoride in there.

The big thing, on the right, is the lithium we have in the world.

And going forward, you actually don't want to be a lithium patient this time.

You're not even looking at lithium ion, you're looking at cheap batteries. You know, you're

It will also make trace amounts of lithium and maybe a touch of baron and beryilium.

So now we're looking up the value associated with lithium, and what we get is an error.

But here is the answer of the mean of the patients that actually decided to take lithium.

And then, of course, as you get older, it's almost like age is a form of lithium.

Because apparently you can't have this fragile isotope of Lithium 6 in the atmospheres of sun like stars.

That reaction at the bottom, that's lithium 6, plus a neutron, will give you more helium, plus tritium.

Ten percent of the patients started taking lithium based on 16 patients of data in a bad publication.

I can't say whether lithium works in all ALS patients, but I can say whether it works in Humberto.

So a couple of years ago, we had a scandal which killed about 80 people around the world, because of contaminants that crept into the heparin supply chain.

Well that's an update, so that corresponds to the hash table update where lithium is the key, and 3 is the value.

Can we go to the patients that actually decided to stay on lithium, because they were so convinced they were getting better?

And I thought, well maybe there is Lithium 6 in this star, which is an indication that this star has swallowed a planet.

So if you engulf planet or large number of asteroids, you will have this Lithium 6 isotope in the spectrum of the star.

Lithium, that is a drug used to treat bipolar disorder, that a group in Italy found slowed ALS down in 16 patients, and published it.

And the ones in the middle are all of our patients from the start of lithium at time zero, going forward, and then going backward.

You might look at Michigan and say, we're going to lead the nation in producing the guts for the electric vehicle, like the lithium ion battery.

That the reason the reactions don't proceed beyond lithium or beryilium, beryilium or so is the universe expands and becomes insufficiently hot and dense to create heavier nuclei.

So after helium, there is a big gap going to lithium, and then also another one going to boron, which is what limits the abundance of those elements.

We give it all the computing power it needs a 1.5 gigahertz Pentium M chip, two FireWire cameras, rate gyros, accelerometers, four force sensors on the foot, lithium polymer batteries.

Lithium is a little more complicated, because it's also generated in stars, and it's subject to uncertainties in stellar structure and evolution. And so this is why it's not really used to constrain, constrain nucleosynthesis.

I mean, a fusion reactor is a big vacuum tube at 10 keV, which is like 15 patrillion degrees, and then inside this are superconducting magnets that are held in liquid helium, and all of this is jacketed in a lithium blanket that will breed megacuries of tritium, which will then be injected into this reactor which is driven by these giant neutral ion beams.

I can't tell you that if you did it at a higher dose or if you run the study proper I can tell you that for those 69 people that took lithium, they didn't do any better than the people that were just like them, just like me, and that we had the power to detect that at about a quarter of the strengths reported in the initial study.

We've been working on this, actually, as an alternative energy source, starting way back with Johnson amp Johnson, to run an iBOT, because the best batteries you could get 10 watt hours per kilogram in lead, 20 watt hours per kilogram nickel cadmium, 40 watt hours per kilogram in nickel metal hydride, 60 watt hours per kilogram in lithium, 8,750 watt hours of energy in every kilogram of propane or gasoline which is why nobody drives electric cars.
