Too bad, I was kind of hoping to see some discussion on Parkhomov. I don't follow these Rossi replications, what little I bother to read are excerpts or links here, but the last I heard is that Parkhomov claimed some small excess heat replication and then later was providing info to the the MFMP gro...

Now it would be great to move discussions specific to Andrea Rossi back into the other thread and keep this one on BLP.

I wish there was some objective way to score Supreme Court Judges performance without all the politics. A measurement could be used to ensure Judges aren't abusing lifetime appointment (of which I generally agree with for that court).

That was worth reading, thanks for the link.

Correct me if I am wrong, but my impression is that the original thrust levels versus energy input is at least a million times less than originally claimed based on the more recent test results margins for error. As such, even if the physics works, thrust will be much less than even current ion thr...

There is precedent, though. Gene's are naturally occurring, but patents have been granted on them. Existing genes or modified? I would think modified. With medicines, these are new compounds that also do not pre-exist, or at least have not been discovered for a patent. I guess it gets fuzzy for thi...

I just liked the dichotomy of: - hydrinos are one of the natural states of a hydrogen atom - you cannot investigate these since we have patented them I'm no expert on patents, but this just seems rather funny to me. It would be like trying to patent a particular isotope* or an ion or something. Yes,...

Part of the "rigging" was the intentionally flawed polls pushed non-stop by the media that persisted up until vote counts came in. These polls were propaganda and a psychological weapon to suppress voter turnout. And IMO they had the desired effect, although it is hard to empirically say how much si...

And because his issued patents claim the hydrino as an invention, BLP asserts that it owns all intellectual property rights involving hydrino research. BLP therefore forbids outside experimentalists from doing even the most basic hydrino research, which could confirm or deny hydrinos, without first...

Clearly some are more equal than others.

Dave Bowman: Alright, HAL. I'll go in through the emergency airlock.
HAL: Without your space helmet, Dave? You're going to find that rather difficult.
Dave Bowman: HAL, I won't argue with you anymore! Open the doors!
HAL: Dave, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye.

He doesn't even need a closed loop, although that works best. But just an isolated system with an on board power supply, such as an array of marine batteries with published capacity would help, but he doesn't do this. If he really gets COP 50, then even outputting a few times what the batteries coul...

Looks like a bird traversing the camera's field in between the lens and the launchpad. The last frame with the object doesn't appear (to me) to be behind that last tower on the far left of the screen either. As for conspiracies: using a drone or some small fast aircraft would have likely shown up on...

I seriously doubt this is a real effect. It contradicts established theory. I still think this is great news though. The space-enthusiast / sci-fi geek kid in me is excited about the cubesat experiment. If it somehow turns out to be a useful propellentless thruster that beats the photon rocket by an...

Sadly I do not see Rossi receiving a huge amount of punishment. Quite honestly the average juror has an extremely low analytical and scientific background. Let's face it may be one person in 10 actually knows the difference between hypothesis, theory, and theorem. So I could see him in a jury trial...
