Rossie has been to Prison twice, stole millions of dollars from investors, and has been involved in one scam after another.
And you are telling me someone on Freerepublic actually tried to give this thief 200k?
Put down the shotgun, Sheriff. I’m only relaying what another Freeper told me some months back.
I had no reason to doubt him when he related his experience with Rossi. He was quite matter-of-fact about it, and seemed disappointed that Rossi turned him down.
I note your claim about Rossi’s dubious past, but I’ll reserve judgment on that until after I’ve done my own due diligence. Thanks for the link.
Only the first phrase here is accurate. He didn't "steal" any money from investors. Nor has he been involved with "scams". This is not a remotely honest way to describe the Petroldragon affair. He mismanaged things, yes. The result was that investors lost money, not that it wound up in Rossi's pocket. When you handle hazardous waste you need to follow the rules, even if they strike you as unreasonable. That was his fault. And perhaps he was overconfident regarding the technology he'd developed.
But calling it a scam and claiming he stole money is just dishonest. I see fanatics on both sides (the gullible and the close-minded). But at least the gullible folks aren't engaging in vicious smears, lies and libel.
Finally a fact in this whole cold fusion scam that comports with my personal understanding and knowledge. Before I just thought this crowd were government grant whores whining because their peers had slammed the academic grant cookier jar down on their fingers. Now I see they have been shilling their rotten wares to other hicks and boobs. The one's here deserve to be taken. They have been warned.
