I heard about that after it happened. The MFMP people have a good impression. I was busy with sessions and other things while this was happening. Later in the day the rebroadcast did not work, so I missed most of the Defkalion test. I look forward to seeing it next week. I think that a demonstration of this nature is valuable. I am pleased they did it. But it is no substitute for the kind of test Levi et al. did of Rossi's device. I mean Levi et al. used their own instruments; they went back three times and improved the technique each time; they spent several days; they used a video camera to be certain there was no interference. That is much better proof than Defkalion can offer with a single, 8-hour video test. We can have both. We can have video demonstrations and also third-party tests. Video demonstrations serve some useful purposes that Levi cannot serve. Eventually we must have completely independent replications. Rossi has apparently met that test, having his devices manufactured in the U.S. - Jed
