I myself have set up demonstrations of prototype products that worked splendidly for weeks, and then failed when customers walked through the door. I recall seeing a video of Steve Jobs doing that at a product rollout in a trade show. He handled it with aplomb. That happens all the time to anyone who makes new things for a living. It is called Murphy's law. People such as Yugo who doubt this have no idea what R&D is like. If Rossi's prototypes worked exactly right during a demonstration, I would suspect they are fake. Perhaps he is a master con-man who adds verisimilitude to his claims by having NASA people come for days while his machines spurt hot water through leaks and screw up in various ways. There has to an easier way to establish credibility. - Jed
