On WHAT basis?!? That's irrational. You do not have a scintilla of technical evidence that the claims are wrong. The skeptics have not come up with a single reason to doubt these results. I can understand having some lingering doubts, but to declare 10 to 1 that it is fake makes no sense at all. As far I as I can see, you pulled that number out of . . . your hat. This is a technical question, not a matter of opinion or a political campaign. Even if you confine your analysis to a guessing game about Rossi's business and his personal motivation, you come up with NOTHING. Not a single valid reason to doubt him. Sure, he is flamboyant, but here is some things I know for a fact: He works night and day, 6 or 7 days a week on this. No "scammer" would need to do that. He has invested his own money in it. All of his money, apparently, which was a considerable fortune. Again, if it was fake he would have to be crazy to do that. Many scientists have spent weeks or months working side by side with him in the lab, such as the late Focardi. Not one of these people has reported any reason to doubt the claims. Do you think they are all in cahoots with him? Or do you think they are all so stupid they do not recognize what has to be a blatant, easily discovered fraud? You cannot use a subtle technique or a few thin wires to melt a cell made of steel and ceramic. That take a lot of power, and any method of conducting that much power would be instantly obvious to a trained observer. It could easily be done as a stage trick or a movie special effects trick, where the viewer cannot see the trick. But a movie special effects trick vanishes when you step back and see the larger moovie set.
