My take on it:
a) Old question, again : Is the eCat steam quality a problem?
Definitely not a problem

b) New question : Do you now think the eCat is Real or Fake?Definitely Fake
Probably Real
Can somebody explain me how,
it is likely a weak interaction involving neutrons, without fusion
could possibly gain energy? And where do these neutrons come from?
It looks like people are more skeptical on the claim 'cold fusion'
than on the claim that 'abra-ca-dabra' can actually do something.
Hello group,
I have a question, its not so important but it keeps bugging me.

Hi Vortex-l eskimo's,
Anyone knows what happened with Les Case's energy catalyzer?
It seems to work in a similar way as Rossi's. Why did he not build the
1MW plant he was planning?
Is he still working on this? Anyone knows where? (what lab/company?)
Thanks,

A car running on 10kW electric from a cold fusion device connected to
a 5% efficient heat to electric converter (steam or bismut or
whatever) would spit out 200kW of waste heat, that is equivalent to 15
strong patio heaters. Are you really sure, Jed, we don't have to
worry?

Why would you do it that way?
However you do it, it's hard to beat the 5-10%.
The point is that efficiency does matter.

As a physicist I feel obliged to spread the word on cold fusion and
explain what it is to the general public. In that attempt I wrote the
linked paper, please have a look and give me your blunt feedback. Also
please use the paper however you see fit.

All,
Thanks for your input, I updated the paper to incorporate most of your comments.
@Aussie Thanks;
@Peter I maintain that Rossi forced the current big breakthrough,
whether it is just an additive or not. I agree with you that it is
fair to mention Piantelli and Focardi as founders and
@Peter
As an aside, please let me know how do you interpret Focardi's declaration
that he does not know what Rossi's catayst is.
I think the obvious interpretation is that Rossi invented it, and didn't
tell Focardi. I think that's the official story anyway and I don't see
anthing wrong with that?
I like his theory, it may well be the process happening. Even if it
isn't entirely, it provides a good starting point for further
research. I also very much like his notion of other systems that may
show LENR processes already. Including failing Li-Ion batteries,

Hi group,
I'm excited to announce our newly formed non-profit organization to

Gold cannot be made from lead though fusion, it would require fission.
There isn't much point making gold from platinum, I presume.
To make Cu out of Ni though the Rossi claimed scheme it would release
3.4 GWh of heat per produced kg of Copper, that's an entirely new form
of climate pollution!

How easy is it really to get steam from 300 Watts only? The difference
between 12kW and 300W must be obvious, even for the naked eye.
And no reports on input power? Is it measured at the plug, before
whatever electronics he uses? Or at the input in the reactor? If the
