I read Mr. Godes paper the day it appeared on the New Energy Times site (I think that was back in July?). I immediately had the feeling it was important. At the same time, the word "proprietary" appears six times. It seems clear that Mr. Godes believes the road to progress is a working device, not scientific replication. And I'm not criticizing. In fact given the way the mainstream scientific community has treated LENR for the last 20+ years, it sounds like the path to poetic justice.
As always, time will tell.
