Seagulls don’t like showing up in dog parks, have you noticed? They prefer to be lazy.

will it be productized?

how much will a unit cost?

how big is the unit?

how much will a ‘refill’ cost?

how much energy will a ‘refill’ generate and for how long?

It’s on the way. Startup money is going after it. Where is the startup money on the controlled-hot-fusion con?

Doesn’t matter. Obama will EO it out of business. Then confiscate the technology in the name of homeland security, then GIVE the technology to China.

Maybe so, but there are still plenty of 3rd world nations to sell this to.

I would be more interested in your follow-up on the BlackLight demo that is supposed to happen tomorrow, as you reported earlier:

This breakthrough transformational power technology can be witnessed in a live demonstration hosted by BlackLight of on January 28th at 11 AM. Details and updates will be posted at the company website (http://www.blacklightpower.com/). Those interested in attending can contact BlackLight to preregister for this limited availability event.

Currently their Web site is not mentioning this demo at all, which is somewhat strange for an event of global importance.

Cool compilation.

***Recall that the way that Led Zeppelin decided on the name of their band: Some record company executive said that they would have as much chance as a “lead Zeppelin”.

I do not recall Google ever issuing press releases. They simply walked the walk, from day zero. They did invent new and important software technologies, but they never talked much about them. They simply let their service win the world on its own merit.

It is common for a startup to operate in silent mode until they have something to demo or to sell. There is nothing to be gained by shouting about their wonderful progress in development while the product is not ready. You only do that if you want investment, but most startups are not structured to take such investments, and the law may prevent that too (requires quialified investors.) This is because the risk is much higher, and SEC does not want to create conditions for yet another tulip mania.

It is often wise to steer clear of people who laud the advantages of their future product. Sometimes you may get lucky and invest into Microsoft; but in most cases you will invest in :CueCat and their likes.

I do not know if Cold Fusion is a real process or an artifact. This is for scientists to find out. However looking from the business point of view, efforts to productize the energy output are extremely disappointing so far. And that is after several demos that Rossi performed - which presumably prove that the energy production has positive balance. From the business POV, the only way to get energy out of this whole segment of industry is by burning their press releases :-)

Most likely this company is part of the scam. It only costs a couple of hundred dollars to form a company and put out a press release. Then there will be the usual crazy people repeating the story on the Internet.
