After showing up here with your shock 'n awe FOI campaign, is that all you got left? Be patient?

That sounds like exactly what the Navy might pay you to be saying .... for the next 10 years.

Spin-coupling. Spin-coupled tunneling.

Polarised field alignments, they sneak in through the backdoor, i.e. the poles.

Reactants are spin=0 particles.

till then i will give them the benefit of doubt You guys must be weakening. Or has the backpedaling started? Before you were all so certain it was fraudulent, fake, criminal or any other insult you could make up, without any proof. You do the fanboy work in an excellent way Parallel. Too bad that R...

Didn't think it was possible but this thread has descended into a bigger pissing contest than it was when I left it ..... all the top flight, classy scientists left here I see (betting on their opinions) [/sarc] I'm still waiting on a Polywell to heat my water .... let's not go there, eh, too much l...

Crawdaddy, you are on a hiding to nothing. He is arguing using semantics and quite happily admits it. He is here to argue only, you could teach him nothing because there is nothing he will learn but what he already "knows"... Seems he has gathered a fawning circle of serial insulters too, so good lu...

Okay you got me Gorgio ... arguing semantics is always the last resort for the never-wrongs, you will always win since you can change the definitions as often as you please to make sure you are never wrong .... ... the BEC maths stats. "as commonly understood" says it is a BEC ... if you have your o...

BEC of photons was reported in nature last year. Keep up with the literature people. http://blogs.physicstoday.org/update/2011/01/a-bose-einstein-condensate-of.html The BEC behavior of polaritons was reported in science in 2002. That's not really a BEC of photons in the strict term of the BEC meani...

With all the points that YOU have provided suggesting that a laser is a BEC, just not commonly called one, why does it upset you to think of it as one? For the same reason that a horse is not commonly called a cow. BTW did you leave out a link to the laser without population inversion? I'd really l...

Nanoplasmonic "hotspots", i.e. localised sites of v. high fields are reported ... so holds some water thus far. http://www.phog.physik.uni-muenchen.de/news/archive/2008_01_08/index.html http://www.phy-astr.gsu.edu/stockman/data/Complexity_in_Nanoplasmonics_50_min.pdf http://www.phog.physik.uni-muen...

Posted from the Vortex list: Hi All, I'd just like to put this hypothesis out there to get some feedback and see where the major flaws are: - Small spheres with dielectric-metal interfaces only support surface plasmon polaritons with the spherical harmonic waves of the l=1 mode (the lowest), implyin...

Well this LENR thing going viral is gonna suck all the oxygen out of all other energy researches for a long time. Polywell was a nice idea, pity that they hadn't been public with experimental results (as Bussard wanted) a few years back. The crowd-source effect could have meant it went somewhere. To...

Putting aside Mr. Rossi's claims for the moment. Cold fusion (LENR) denial is completely a belief system, it is grounded in nothing else. Here's why. Experiments demonstrating conclusive excess heat have now been well documented by respected researchers (Arata in particular). The theory is not well ...

Wow, the stench of groupthink around here has gotten worse ... didn't think it was possible. So Prof. Levi is less reliable than Nebel's and Park's claim to 3 (or was it 4?) neutrons. The position that parallel and I are somehow "emotionally invested" in Rossi being right is absurd .... sometimes th...
