Rossi is not the only horse in the race. It is not fair to use a broad sweep.

I must admit, a lot is riding on him and the ECAT. How do you feel about the
subject? Do you think that it is possible to have a LENR device or are you
totally convinced the concept is non sense?
There are videos and data from the Oct. 6 test. That test is irrefutable by
first principles. The tests from earlier this year were also excellent despite
the poor instrumentation.

Why rush to judgement.

We certainly agree on this. The demos have been totally atrocious. I am not
sure why Rossi does not make an attempt to clean these up.

It is unfortunate that things may have gotten out of hand on this. Perhaps it
works better if fewer points are discussed at a time. This way no one will get
too weary of the long postings. I prefer to get directly to the point and go
into details.

Thank you. We can reach some form of understanding if we carefully consider
all sides of the argument. I will do my best to study your points, but I can
not say I will always agree.
