Wiki says those numbers weren't ever actually achieved, merely extrapolated from other results achieved using pure deuterium plasma. I don't know nuclear physics from a hole in the ground, but I'm with the skeptics. Great if it works eventually, but we have no current reason to pin our hopes on it.
