Re: Bill Gates is heading a $1 billion venture fund to combat climate change

Before the Internet there was no easy way that the average Joe could made his voice heard, but now there is, and what we read online seems damning to the common Internet citizen intelligence level. Who has not thought, once and again, how unintelligent most people comments sound. Although, of cours...

Re: LENR Is Real

The general point remains though, there have been too many experiments and replications to doubt that anomalous heat can be generated by LENR and that P & F have been vindicated. With enough experiments you get enough false positives to continue your research. Succeeding consistently with double bl...

Re: EMC2 news

Is anyone on this forum going to this seminar? I have work that time and can't take part. Of course Park's slides and video is highly appreciated. There's been a recent small news item I couldn't post because of the outage, Dr. Park speaking in Helsinki. http://www.hip.fi/seminars/ Thursday 12 Novem...

Re: About the outage and upgrade

Thank you. Fortunately search engines gave some hints of what is going on. The BB upgrade virus is on on this fall. Another BB that I actively follow has had its problems. Third one is NextBigFuture. I was quite active there and stopped writing when they switched to SolidOpinion. Thanks also about a...

Re: EMC2 news

Do not forget the need for heating. More than half my electricity bill goes to keep us warm during winters. Fear of nuclear makes us waste most of the produced energy. The city of Helsinki uses coal instead of heat of nuclear power from Loviisa, 90 km east. It is easier to create image of safety to ...

Re: LENR Is Real

CherryPick, If the price of eCat were zero the competitive price for the battery replacement is 100 €. It is not clear to me what you mean. What about using a thermostat? I don't need a 5 kW sauna all the time. Rossi claims that the output is now controllable. In passing I expect the E-Cat X (to be...

Re: LENR Is Real

So, Rossi has patented a high-energy NiMH-battery that requires input electricity to keep running. Its COP 6 is comparable to COP of a air heat pump. It would produce 5 kW for 180 days, 21600 kWh, the value of which could be 2 160 €. Air heat pump is noisy, 30 dB, and does not work outside temperatu...

Re: A Sequel to The Google Talk

Venture capitalists look for return on investment, the ROI. High risk is balanced with high returns if the venture is successful. Good and committed people are important because it is likely that plans change when research and design goes further. On successful exit the VC sells his shares with huge...

Re: Green Solutions Go Astray Again

I think this article may be suspect, It suggest that the birds are drawn to the insects coming to the light. Just like the light on your porch draws in bugs. But only the birds are getting fried and the insect population remains steady around the worlds largest bug zapper. :lol: Not saying its not ...

Re: Dr. Park to speak at UW-Madison

Every week of delay in seriously addressing the AGW catastrophe is making its consequences more difficult to correct. Many of our planet’s great coral reefs are already doomed, and the breakup of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, with its accompanying ten foot increase in sea level is already inevitabl...

Scientific method is appreciated and facts, links and measurements are required. WUWT is particularly good a...

Re: Lockheed Martin Skunkworks - Compact Fusion

I am really disappointed by the quality of the technical journalism these days, btw. All the tech news and websites and blogs only seem to regurgitate the contents of papers and press releases. Noone seems to bother to digg a little deeper and maybe contact these people to get some more information...

OTH. Gravity is well understood in engineering level, but remains tough mystery for science.

Not much different than the Rossi story. http://jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/050502/met_9322821.html Now 10 years later we have ADSL. It is not faster than fiber but can transfer videos using a phone line. In Rossi's case, he will a) run with the money b) try to get more money c) establish re...
