Re: [Vo]:Florida Investigates Rossi
The use of food irradiation varies significantly from country to country. In the UK for example, it can only be used for dried aromatic herbs, spices, and vegetable seasonings. The same variation in attitude towards such things could well mean that there are very different challenges to getting E-cats approved in different countries.

On Tue, Mar 13, 2012 at 8:45 AM, OrionWorks - Steven Vincent Johnson orionwo...@charter.net wrote: China, citing... Environmental concerns? Yeah, right. Once upon a time, I had a great concern about rare earths, mainly neodymium. Along with other interested parties, we researched other sources of rare earth elements (REE). REE are not really rare. Placer mines, eg veins of easily obtained REE are rare. Placers are not really veins like gold but settlement sands which are rich in the REE. The Mountain Pass mine in California was the largest producer of REE from 1965 until it was shut down in 2002. It actually was shut down due to environmental concerns. Thorium and radium are two pollutants resulting from REE mining. Mountain Pass will open again this year thanks to the Chinese. Today new techniques are being exploited to mine REE. Toyota Tsusho will begin production of some REE from Indian mine tailings where India had mined thorium and uranium. Our research indicates that iron mine tailings also have a significant amount of REE and we have mountains of iron tailings. A secret technique is presently in the works to tap this resource. I don't know a lot about it; but, it grew from an invention which used a high speed vortex to convert almost any hydrocarbon to usable fuel. Apparently, it works somewhat like the isotope centrifuges much in the news lately. So, while we complain about China's virtual embargo presently, necessity being the mother of invention, new techniques could result in much less expensive REE in the long term. Oh, it's interesting to note that REE mining grew exponentially in the 60s due to the need for europium in color television. T

There seems to be quite some knowledge here at vortex, and a couple of people seem to work in their backyard on their own devices. This is suboptimal. How about that: introduce some economy of scale: lets say ten devices, which need not be identical, but have a common base, e.g. nano-Nickel, a certain type of reaction chamber, hydrogen etc. the basic construction could be implemented via division of labour. one builds the basic reaction-chamber, the other procures the nano-Nickel, the third provides for some basic electronics, and so on. It does not make sense to procure nano-Nickel in every individual case. I'm thinking of about maybe ten devices, which share a common design, and can be freeley varied to optimize the effect. The overall concept seems to be straightforward enough, to make this a reasonable approach. It would have the consequence, that nobody can monopolize the technology via patents or secret sausages etc. Waiting for Godot in the form of Rossi or Defkalion otr Miles or McKubre is starting to go onto my nerves.

Re: [Vo]:To Spark or Not to Spark
Hi Bastiaan and others, I'm currently a in a bit of a hurry in my job, so just a couple of lines of thinking: 1) I read this study A-study-of-a-sparkdischarge-in-hydrogen-at-atmospheric- ... which I found quite interesting. a) the setup allows good calorimetric measurements b) its is simple c) It produces about 3e19 H-atoms per second, which seems to be a good number and could be up to a distance of ca 40mm before recombining d) actually, due to the generating process, these must be mostly Ions (protons), because the pink light is is indicative of a plasma. e) at first I was sceptical wrt spark generation, but this one here serves a different purpose, more like ignition in a combustion motor, so it is easily controlled. 2) idea of a setup (proof of concept-type): a) use the basic setup for H-/proton generation b) use a planar layer of Nano-Nickel on the surface of the copper-block, which is used for calorimetry c) direct the Protons to the Nickel-layer via a moderate electrostatic field, say 100V/cm, which is easy. d) measure the amount of excess heat, if there is any e) use a heating coil to heat up the reactive side, where the Nickel is located to some 200-400deg Celsius. 3) Nickel-powder selection a) there are basically lots of suppliers, mostly Chinese b) particle-sizes offered are mostly in the sub-100nm region, which some here consider too small. I do 'nt know. c) a cheap way to get some compromise-size is this: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Nano-Nickel-Powder-1217g-N1-200-200nm-Ni-NanoNickel-/310248791616?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0hash=item483c44de40 200nm Nickel seems reasonable to me for a first try. look at it and tell 'us' what You think. 4) Nickel-powder treatment. a) My first intuition is, that the powder has to be deoxydized, by whatever method: hydrogen atmosphere at elevated temperatures. I currently do'nt know. Maybe its irrelevant, because the reactive chamber is reductive. 5) Spark-generation a) this should be easy (at least for me) Think TV-tubes which used to produce 20kV DC. 6) Yes, we should find a repository for non-text-documents. 7) This proposed first setup is intended as a intergroup (dis)proof of concept, and not a real working horse, warming one's home or such. Even if Rossi or Defkalion have working devices, which I have some doubts, the process to my opinion is not understood. My personal aim is, to intergrate available knowledge, and give the establishment-academics some boost, to move their butts and do their duty. This for the first round. best regards Guenter Von: Bastiaan Bergman bastiaan.berg...@gmail.com An: vortex-l@eskimo.com Gesendet: 18:53 Dienstag, 13.März 2012 Betreff: Re: [Vo]:To Spark or Not to Spark I'm interested, where do you share your design? link?

RE: [Vo]:Krivit's new diagnosis: Rossi is a crazy cucko! WOW!
From Daniel: http://blog.newenergytimes.com/2012/03/13/ugo-bardi-andrea-rossi-may-be-a-be liever-not-a-scammer/ WOW! This is a fascinating article. It's well worth reading, skeptical it may be. Be sure to watch the You Tube videos! Some kewl Kung-Fu mind games going on there! I read the article by Ugo Bardi. I thought it was well written, even if I might have come to a different conclusion in regards to Ugo's assessment of Rossi's erratic behavior. I noticed that in regards to commentary suggesting that Rossi has probably deluded himself, the lack of evidence link the author points to is... well, what do you know!!! New Energy Times! Some circuitous self advertising going on here on Mr. Krivit's part. I realize this is but a fantasy of mine, but I wish Mr. Krivit would apply the same Cassandra rationale in regards to what appears to be his current belief in the infallibility of the Widom Larsen theory as he has applied towards Rossi. Another fantasy of mine is that I wish Krivit would get back to reporting the news instead of interpreting the news for his readership. The tragedy here is that there really is no need to continue an agenda against Rossi. Rossi will end up either prevailing on his own merits or self-destruct due to a lack of them. In the end, it won't matter one whit what Krivit believes. However, the fact that Krivit continues to interpret Rossi's actions for the benefit of his readers suggests to me that Krivit basically remains insecure about his own ability to convince them that his conclusions are the correct ones. Therefore, he continues hammering away with his relentless agenda against Rossi - as much to convince himself as he does to convince his readership. That tells me everything I need to know about Krivit. It's also pretty much exact same approach Krivit has employed in the past when he has gone after other individuals he has investigated, individuals he personally felt were being untruthful or perhaps behaving in deceitful ways.
