  I need someone to explain the joke. Waiting 100,000 years for radioactive decay seems to be a bit boring as a punch line.

    It’ll be really funny in 100 000 years.

    It’s not a joke if you hit boron with a neutron it releases the energy in the form of an alpha particle which is just a helium atom.

    So take some boron-10 put it in a neutron flux and you get helium. This is being done in nearly every nuclear power plant in the world every second
