It's The fallacy of denying the antecedent , an Invalid Argument Form, true premise but false conclusion. The truth of Radiation being evidence of a reaction does not follow that no radiation means no reaction. Strictly logically: It is not true that A implying B means not A implies not B. It is a ...

If radiation is an evidence of reaction. So, no radiation - no reaction. Only if the proposition is dependent on the precedent. We've got a logical flaw there (not that it supports Parallel). Can anyone name the logical flaw? Harmonous logical constructions on unsteady soil would not give anything ...

Good video but it's kinda sad. I like that Rossi guy. Careful! don't wave your hand over the end of the hose!.... Sheesh.

Dang. If I attached the top of my tea kettle to the end of that hose, it wouldn't whistle a peep.

Competetive Hurry.

FACTS? Anyone? FACTS? Rossi is making psuedo-scientific claims, running a psuedo-scientific website, lookiing for customers, while not being able to present any compelling data or information of the process. My enjoyment of this discussion is that sooner or later this whole fiasco will show up on "...

So looks like mine have been rejected.
Apparently posts are rejected not only for the expletives they contain, but the ones they cause too.

It seems the news is spreading.... Dr. Steven Chu, Secretary of Energy is looking at Lattice-assisted Nuclear Reactions (LANR) Cold Fusion as a part of implementing President Obama’s ambitious agenda to invest in clean energy, reduce our dependence on foreign oil, address the global climate crisis,...

he only thing that can change that, is a well written experiment, and a release of all his data, but then, it isn't about the science.... yet. Its still about the money, and excuses of why he won't release all details. Rossi says you are wrong (and I agree with him.) The only thing that will convin...

But real skeptics WITHHOLD judgement until the evidence is in, they don't use a lack of evidence as "evidence" to the contrary. I dont think that anybody is saying anything of the like or has made his final judgement yet (at least talking for myself, I have not). But, at least I am (and I believe G...

Giorgio pretty much sums up my feelings as well. One has to be particularily sceptic, because Rossi is making extraordinary claims. ECREE. The standard skeptic's credo. And it is a good one. But real skeptics WITHHOLD judgement until the evidence is in, they don't use a lack of evidence as "evidenc...

All it would take is a single, well documented, straight forward, clearly published "in your face" experiment, that could be duplicated by any reasonable experimenter. I don't mean, an experiment that works 3 out of 5 times, I mean a clear experiment that demonstrably shows net energy out that can'...

I can only repeat, for the third time: take the man at his word until he's proven wrong. Meanwhile there is not enough evidence to pass judgement. There is substantial evidence that he has discovered something, that we all agree is not proof beyond all doubt, and a number of scientists more eminent...

i'm finding it quite hard to locate any real body of evidence published in 'reputable' journals: lots of 'conference' material, but far less 'published' material. Cold fusion is one of the few topics on the forbidden subjects list; you know…like the Inquisition. Rossi could not even get on the arXi...

KitmanSA, I also wondered if adding a proton or neutron to nickel could add energy, after all the binding energy for the neutron is very low and is zero for protons. What I read yesterday says that in fact neutrons have zero and protons have ~13.6eV (effectively zero). :) But, thinking about it, it...
