Johnny - you do grok that Rossi is one of MANY LENR researchers...
I don't have an opinion on LENR in general. Maybe there's something to it.

But there is plenty of reasons to suspect Rossi. I've posted numerous references to his criminal history, including several fraud convictions.

He has consistently refused to allow a credible test of his gadget. For example, although he claims to have used and E-Cat to heat his factory for 2 years now, there is no evidence of it, and he has never run a demo longer than a few hours.

He had made ridiculous claims of having "self destruct" devices in his gadget.

He has surrounded himself with people who have been involved with previous energy scams (Sterling Allan, Hank Mills). He has been misleading about his association with the University of Bologna.

Just because there LENR may be legitimate doesn't mean that Rossi is. It is common for scam artists to grab on to whatever technology is new, exciting and poorly understood. I've posted numerous references to previous con men who have done this, including some who were supported by the same people who now support Rossi.

Whether or not LENR is real has nothing to do with whether or not Rossi is a con man. Rossi's history and actions speak for themselves.

Johnny, one need not attend the Goebbles school of propaganda to identify ad hominem attack and circumstantial evidence to discredit an entire field of science. It’s amusingly old school - by 70+ years.

How about you speak to the dozens of good, government paid scientists who confirm LENR and confidence in LENR experiments? Bushnell, McKubre, Focardi, Mills, Miley, Ahern, Levi, Pinarelli, Hegelstein, Josephson, Kullander, etc. Or is rossi-ad hominem your only program?
