I was getting tired of the hand-waving we had been seeing in the past. But if we have a NAVSEA scientist officially saying he's able to get energy, then that's a big step towards credibility. Especially if gets published in an IEEE journal.
In your PDF, there's also mention of Rossi (page 13) being halfway through a 400-day test at a customer factory of a 1 MW e-cat. If this pans out, then it is starting to sound exciting.
I would just want to see more mention in publications outside the ecat clique.
If anybody's keeping a LENR ping list, please add me.
