I don’t know Luca Gamberale, so I did some research into his background. I like to state up front that anyone who has more info about him and his level of ethics is welcome to rebutt. I am also a prejudiced supporter of DGT. That said: there are two sides to every story.
In terms of this DGT Europe guy, I don't trust his account or his take on things because he has gone into the LENR development business himself. As a future LENR dealer with human nature what it is, it is natural for these various potential venders’ of LENR reactors to bad mouth each other. Rossi says bad things about DGT and DGT let slip some bad things about Rossi. This new guy is just doing what they all do. As an application developer and reseller of DGT reactors, Gamberale’s former company had no right to know how that R5 reactor works internally. Even with this contractual constraint in place as the history of these events reveal, his former company paid a million dollars in the vain hope to look under the dress of DGT, but DGT was too modest or too smart to show their goods. Did Luca Gamberale want to setup his new company in the same way that Defkalion was started? I believe so. We might never know who stole what from who but Italians are notorious for their lack of business ethics. I am surprised that DGT did not go after Luca Gamberale's NDA violation. I guess they did not want to waste precious money on lawyers. After all, DGT Europe was in the Ni/H reactor application business not in the development of Ni/H technology itself. Luca Gamberale has publically bemoaned that DGT never left him alone with an R5 reactor unattended. Why would that bother this man? Maybe Gamberale wanted to take some nefarious advantage in the dark of night to look inside that R5 reactor, or even better to remove some selected parts for reverse engineering opportunities thereby supplying him with a huge technical head start for his own company that he has subsequently started. It is not in the interest of any company to admit that key parts of their technology are compromised. This degrades the value of their intellectual property in the market place. Ask Rossi about this vis-à-vis DGT. What is known for sure, Defkalion saw that the Rossi reactor worked and that gave them the impetus to form a LENR development company themselves. The takeaway based on DGT's reaction: Rossi’s reactor works and is powerful. The formation of a DGT LENR development company speaks to that certainty. In like manner, if Luca Gamberale believed in what he has said about the R5, he would be a fool to get into the LENR development business himself. Luca Gamberale's Experience CEO, Scientist LD-Brane srls March 2014 – Present (7 months) Milan Area, Italy LD-Brane is a startup operating in two main fields: 1) R&D in the field of LENR (Low Energy Nuclear Reactions). LENR is a most promising powerful source of energy, safe, clean an cheap. It has the potential to supply humanity of heat, electricity and fresh water for the next decades. What is still missing is a full understanding of the physical principles at the basis of the reactions and an efficient and reliable industrial implementation. LD-Brane has a scientific programme for the experimental and theoretical study of LENR and for the realization of prototypes for the production of energy running using LENR. LD-Brane participates to the research program of the most prominent research centers in Italy and Europe, both public and private. 2) development of highly techological cloud solutions: routing and planning optimization for fleets of trucks http://www.speedyplan.com integrated platform for the quality Assurance of Echotomographs for medical use in hospitals Independent Scientific Consultant September 2013 – Present (1 year 1 month) Milano CTO Defkalion Europe January 2013 – September 2013 (9 months) PhD - Scientist Pirelli Labs Public Company; 10,001+ employees; Automotive industry January 2001 – July 2010 (9 years 7 months) Project Leader on experimental physics. study of coherent optical properties of crystals subjected to nuclear magnetic resonance scientist Pirelli Cables Public Company; 10,001+ employees; Automotive industry 2000 – 2001 (1 year) On Thu, Sep 11, 2014 at 3:29 PM, Jed Rothwell <jedrothw...@gmail.com> wrote: > Peter Gluck <peter.gl...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Dear Friends, >> Somebody on e-CatWorld says the publication of the second >> HotCat report is imminent. >> > > The e-CatWorld article is here: > > > http://www.e-catworld.com/2014/09/10/international-academic-report-on-cold-fusion-imminent-caution-unconfirmed-anonymous-post/ > > Why didn't you include this link in your blog article? > > > The blog article says: > > "The LENR community has also uncritically accepted without analysis the > Luca Gamberale Report that tries to discredit a very good demo by DGT, > logically consistent.
