I for one am pretty excited about what Rossi is doing lately. He is studying positron emissions from lightning storms and how it relates to LENR. Additionally, he is exploring nanotechnology for putting tiny ECATs into home appliances. Finally, he has assigned members of his US team of scientists to...

Yep, catalyst is not needed. After all, how do you catalyze a reaction that doesn't exist?

Andrea Rossi May 8th, 2013 at 4:29 PM Dear Brian: The plant you saw in the photo has been made in the factory of Bologna, but recently it has been transferred to our factory of Ferrara, bigger and well supplied, to be modified with the application of new technologies, to be delivered to our USA Par...

And these photos prove what? Did not Rossi say he was shipping three units (one of each flavor)? Did not Rossi say he was shipping to the US? He put his box on a truck? So what. I don't know what these photos are. Its the same container in all the photos (you can tell by perfect alignment of sticke...

Yes

We interrupt the ongoing discussion of how great Rossi may or may not be for a bit on the psychology of being open-minded vs closed-minded. If nothing else, it might at least provide something new to argue about. Who’s More Open-minded, You or Them? I liked this list. Especially: Flawed Test #2: Pe...

It is so nice to see you consistently substitute your reality for most everyone elses. I am also happy to see you consistently dismiss the testimony of a first hand witness. I guess in your world nobody can ever be guilty of a crime because any witness or evidence is not sufficient. IT MUST BE FACT...

Show me the evidence. Again, evidence and proof are two different things. Evidence is not the same as fact. You dismiss evidence unless it is 100% fact thereby demonstrating your ignorance of what actually constitutes evidence. You have been shown plenty of evidence and, while you can individually ...

And with that I'm formally bowing out of this discussion until some miracle occurs that provides some sort of tangible evidence in favor of this ridiculous claim. Until that time, I firmly believe Rossi is con man and a crook. I recognize your belief and basically agree that it is probably correct....

Nobody thinks your evil, Kite.

He, and apparently you, are incapable of understanding that hundreds of probable lies are basically the same as one definite one. No, they are not. And another thing you seem to ignore is that your feelings about the slime ball (personal opinion, not fact) does not lend "probability" to the situati...

Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts. I can grok Kiteman's frustration on this general point. Often in this thread, you read a poster make an inference or even a reasonable assumption without certainty, and incorrectly display them as a fact. "a IS b" when it is not warran...

I don't think it indicates anything is wrong with the system, but that something is wrong with her bosses. Well if the system causes people to think like that, then something is wrong with it, no? In Austria noone would even consider such a possibility. It is completely unheard of and Austria has u...
