Dear Todd Burkett:
I confirm that my theory has nothing to do with the Mills Theory.
I cannot give information regarding the operation of our reactors.
Warm Regards,
A.R.

 Has he let such a denial slip?

 … and no, there is no indication that the photons seen here are
 coherent, or even superradiant. No evidence is possible since there is no
 lens. The IR light is coming through and/or heating a stainless steel
 end-cap. If the electrical input power is as low as claimed, then we are
 probably seeing superradiance, at least.

 Mills borrowed at little, Rossi borrowed a lot. Yet in the end – success
 may require both borrowers - and probably one or two more.

From James,

 

 I've seen Rossi deny Windom Larson -- which is interesting given that he says

 he wants to give no information on the underlying theory -- but I haven't seen

 a denial of Mills's GUToCP from Rossi.

 

 Has he let such a denial slip?

 

IMO, you are setting yourself up to imagine all sorts of unfounded speculation 
and scenarios about Rossi's motivations or the lack of them. God only knows 
what Rossi is thinking from one day to the next. He is so mercurial. It matters 
little to me what Rossi might think about Mills' work. Likewise, it matters 
little to me that Mills thinks little of Rossi's work and the rest of the Cold 
Fusion community for that matter. According to Mills' CF research is bogus 
science, the result of bad measurements. While Mills may be a genius in his own 
field research and development, often such genius does not translate into being 
all that much of an expert in other fields of study, even a potentially related 
field. I see no reason not to apply the same standards of ignorance to Rossi as 
well. I don't hold their ignorance of other individual's work against them. I 
only hope they know what they are talking about when they discuss their own 
chosen field of study.

unfounded is a loaded term.

Nickel + catalyst = heat is not a foundation -- it is a pattern.

Please forgive my neurons for doing their job.
