Or will you cite from your own fantasies from back in the day:
You made some pretty bold assertions here based purely on "Rossisays".
So in January of 2012, you emphatically stated that Rossi produced "470KW of continuous heat for five and a half hours", but yet here in March of 2014 no one has yet to see anything of this miracle.

A test of Andrea Rossi's 1-megawatt cold-fusion plant was successfully carried out by the engineers and scientists of his first customer at Bologna, Italy, on Oct. 28, 2011.
It produced 470 kW of continuous heat for five and a half hours with no input of electricity beyond that required by the two small water-circulating pumps for the heat exchanger. While the system is capable of 1 megawatt output, it is not stable at higher outputs without some electric input. The customer chose to go with the lower level that didn't require any power input.
Nearly half a megawatt output with no energy input is a staggering success for a system that is still at the model T Ford stage of development. Engineer Rossi developed and built his invention using his own money. For comparison, billions of dollars have been spent on hot-fusion research that has still to generate a net gain in energy.
The development of atomic power, though it could confer unimaginable blessings on mankind, is something that is dreaded by the owners of coal mines and oil wells. (Hazlitt)

Rossi Electric Generation Company Inc. should have made enough money generating electricity that Rossi should be rich. Uhhh, no electricity sold from a Rossi LENR, yet? How can that be? All I have seen from the true believers is slides of what might be if..... Rossi like hucksters have been duping believers for all of human history, sad really.
Counting the days to commercial fusion. It is not that long now.

Right, the original invention, on the tiny chance it is real, is so important that one can hardly think of any reason why Rossi & Co. aren't devoting 100% of their time and energy into making a reliable reactor that can be used for heat and electric generation. Plus, they have apparent competitors, such as Defkalion; you would think they would be on their toes working with ultra focus on the original application.
That Rossi is even looking at things like E-Cat jet engine design and vehicles is simply more vaporware hype.

This is a seedling wells project. Nasa gives grant money to explore low success probability concepts that would otherwise get no attention due the impossibility of it being successful. Read the intro, it is just a funding vehicle to explore out of the envelope . http://nari.arc.nasa.gov/
Think skyhook
Explore the application of LENR technology not the technical aspects and feasibility
•No peer reviewed, published sources
•Assumed device existed with these parameters
I am not a nuclear physicist, but play one on the internet.
I see this is a NASA presentation about possibilities of LENR powered aircraft. Neither Rossi nor his affiliates are mentioned.
Yes, but simply checking the Rossi fan sites will show that Rossi claims to be currently working in this field, which is what the original post mentioning this is referring to (and attempting to paint a veneer of legitimacy via the NASA slide deck link).
Via Rossi Blog:
Perhaps you remember that we made R&D also using gas as a fuel. That line of R&D has been carried on and we are now preparing for a pilot jet engine gas fueled hybridized with an E-Cats assembly. This is exactly what I am working upon during these very days, while the work of the third indipendent party is going on with the hot cat. Obviously, the technology of the Hot Cat is strictly connected with the gas fueled Hot Cat. But remember: I still must say that:
THE RESULTS OF THE EXPERIMENT IN COURSE MADE BY THE THIRD INDIPENDENT PARTY CAN BE POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE AND NOTHING SPECIFIC ABOUT THE FUTURE WORK CAN BE SAID UNTIL THE RESULTS ARE PUBLISHED, POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE AS THEY MIGHT BE.
Warm Regards,
A.R.

Any comment on Rossi's RESOUNDING patent rejection. Which was based on PATENT STUPIDITY on his part?

Thanks for the smile you brought me, been a hard few weeks at work. Long hours, difficult stuff.
Rossi is a cargo cult. I worship at the feet of his falsehoods. It is better than a sitcom.
Although, I would add that his misfortune is of his own doing, and thus does bring me joy.
If it was of someone else's doing, it would not bring me joy.
