Finlay: There were many that failed early on; Princeton, CalTech, supposedly MIT (but this is highly questionable), even some of the Nat'l Labs. it took many years before enough successful ones had been done so scientists could look for common denominators that were present in the successful ones. But that analysis did occur, the required conditions were identified and published, and replicability increased.

The question was absurd. I am disappointed that a professional scientist would ask such a question. Almost every new technology that is not well understood suffers from poor reproducibility, it took decades to achieve reproducible results with field effect transistors and fiber optics. The hidden variables associated with these technologies are now well known. Incidentally, what published experiments that failed was the questioner referring to? > Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2012 13:17:09 -0400 > Subject: Re: [Vo]:CERN Live WebCast - Experimental Progress in LENR > From: hohlr...@gmail.com > To: vortex-l@eskimo.com > > It sounded like one audience member got a bit, er, heated during the > Q&A session.
