Anyone sincerely think I'm a pseudoskeptic since December 1996 ? I'm keenly alert to hear exactly what folks really think...
-- uh, I'm sure I'm not... both terms are prejudiced: PseudoSkeptic, TrueBeliever... just justifies closing down collaborative discussions by classifyinging the other siblings as unqualified... I suggest, Convinced Believer, Decided Skeptic -- thus hinting each side is reason and evidence based, and reasonably free of confused entrepreneurial or ego processes -- I suggest exercizing extreme reluctance about diagnosing the shoes others may be walking in -- uh, I'm really totally barefoot... The scenario that Abd, Storms, and others offer is that many DPd electrolysis runs correlate some bit of He with some excess heat -- maybe... when was last such run? If 5 out of 50 fairly similar cells produce similar correlations within the next 3 years, well, what are the statistics of that, and the statistics combined with the existing claims? This could be a question that can result in agreements among CBs and DSs prior to the runs being done... Well, meanwhile, we getting older, while all affairs evolve explosively exponentailly -- more likely fleets of black swan events will eclipse the feeble furor about cold fusion... being that we are within single hyperinfinity... I'm imagining a SF plot, yes, indeed there are UFOs, and they are zipping straight away from us as they can possibly go ! within the community of service, Rich Murray On Tue, Jun 4, 2013 at 8:06 PM, Giovanni Santostasi <gsantost...@gmail.com>wrote: > Are UFO and LENR in the same category? > Giovanni > > > > On Tue, Jun 4, 2013 at 9:24 PM, OrionWorks - Steven Vincent Johnson < > orionwo...@charter.net> wrote: > >> A question that hasn't been asked is WHY many pseudoskeptics seem to >> pursue rabid vendettas against issues like UFOs, or CF & LENR, relentlessly >> so.
