If there was no anomalous heat it would have stopped boiling a few minutes after the power was turned off. Within an hour, the cooling water and steam thermocouples would all register room temperature soon after the power. When Lewan went to feel the surface of chamber surface, he would not have felt it was hot, he would not have measured a high temperature, and he would not feel or hear that it is boiling. It is easy to estimate that, based on the flow rate, which was verified by several methods. You see how quickly the temperature fell after the anomalous heat stopped at 19:30. No matter where you put the thermometer, if there was no anomalous heat, the moment you turn off the power the temperature must fall according to Newton's law. It can never rise. It does not matter how wrong the positioning may be, or how inaccurate or imprecise the thermometers are. Inescapably, it would cool to room temperature and all There is absolutely, positively, no doubt that this system produced massive amounts of anomalous heat. I will grant however, that if I spent a week trying to think up way to obscure this fact, confuse the issue, and make it difficult for observers to verify it, I could not come with a more confusing test than this. That is a separate issue. Don't confuse the results with the presentation. - Jed
