While you might prefer the skeptics (actually, they are arguably pseudo-skeptics) to compile such a list until someone does and does it right they can keep bringing up the same objections over and over again. I'd suggest it is your opportunity to take the high-ground on objectivity ... My $0.02

You must not be much of an engineer if you are so willing to blow off explicit mention of passive control, Axil. Do you have any engineering background in critical systems -- by which I mean systems that, if they fail, they kill people? I do and they didn't. On Fri, Jun 21, 2013 at 10:21 PM,

Things sometimes seem far out to those in our society with closed minds. There are many strange things in the world - a lot of which cannot be explained by measurement, in a lab, or depending on whether a peer review has been conducted or not. Too many people see authority as the truth and not

I don't see how a gram or two of nano-powder can produce 10 kilowatts of heat output. Without running any numbers, the power density is too high. Other atoms besides those in the powder must also be involved in the production of power. How does Ed's theory handle this? On Sat, Jun 22, 2013 at
