Catch 22 You can not get a patent until you show your device and You can not show you device until you get a patent. The way to break this impasse is to give your device to the world and let someone else profit from it. Once you have something that is useful, novel, and actually works, you submit a...

Piantelli used hydrogen gas , not light or heavy water, in his experiments beginning over two decades ago. Steven Krivit also claims he used nano-particles in his experiments (in 2007 and/or 2009) in his January 19th blog post , but I haven't yet found any source from before Rossi's demonstration th...

http://blog.newenergytimes.com/2011/01/14/focardi-and-rossi-reality-or-scam/ The most recent article seems even more damning, although I can't seem to find any English sources on the Petroldragon affair and don't trust my (or machine translation's) ability to decipher Italian, but I still can't get...

The patent is pretty interesting, if not always intelligible in English. The Italian patent can be found here , for those who read Italian. This part caught my attention: The present inventor, moreover, has also accurately studies the following related patents: US-6,236,225, US-5,122,054, US-H466, U...

Which physics journal? The Journal of Nuclear Physics? It's been around since February 2010, not much time to gain high regard.

The clock continues to tick, and not a peep from EMC2. I still think if they play this wrong, they will get undermined and forgotten. Results matter first. Then publicity. Right now LPP's results are "pB11 fusion looks promising". It's something, but they'll have to wait until about March to start ...

Or at least organize a boycott.

So you're of the opinionis that Noah Webster didn't go far enough?

Latin.

Four of six words are Latin-based. Not bad. Most of us have lower Latin-to-English rationes, however.

On second thought, NIF is pulsed and aims to achieve ignition, so apparently I'm not clear on the concept of ignition. But, from what I understand, ignition is not a goal of LPP. The current experiment, known as Focus Fusion-1, is not a steady-state device, nor would a working DPF fusion reactor be ...

I am not quite sure what this really means since they have not reached break even yet. What this means is that there is no apparent barrier to producing pB11 fusion in the DPF. Whether it will produce useful amounts of energy is still up in the air. The input from current, though I don't know what ...

Happy New Year! I don't think 2010 was too bad, but I have to echo Chris's wish for real developments in 2011. Among the developments I'm looking forward to are: *Famulus getting his Polywell(s) up and running, testing, and sharing his results publicly. Maybe further Polywell results from the Univer...

Well, for better or for worse, the USAF is already looking forward to the next fighter plane , potentially available in both manned and unmanned configurations, due out roughly around 2030. Regarding the US responses to the two world wars, I'd say they were vastly different. In the First World War, ...

I don't want to fight tonight.
