[Vo]:History of Cherokee
Quite fascinating. Like Rossi, Tom Darden has been intimately involved in repurposing industrial contaminated waste as something useful. Kindred souls? Something more? Fellow con artists? You decide. HISTORY In 1984, a group of investors including Tom Darden purchased four brick plants and merged them to form Cherokee Sanford Group (CSG), which grew to become the largest privately held brick manufacturer in North America. When we discovered petroleum-contaminated soil at one of the plant sites, the regulators suggested taking the impaired soil to a nearby landfill. As an alternative, CSG proposed mixing it with clean clay in the brick-making process. The combustion in the kilns burned up the fuel oil in the soil. From this beginning, CSG started a business of receiving contaminated clay from underground storage tank clean-ups. By 1990, CSG was the largest soil remediator in the mid-Atlantic region, eventually cleaning up nearly 15 million tons of contaminated material. Tom Darden and John Mazzarino formed the predecessor company of Cherokee in 1993 to focus exclusively on environmentally impaired assets. In 1994 they organized a risk management advisory affiliate and then formed Cherokee's first institutional capital (Fund I) in 1996. Cherokee formed a $250 million private equity fund (Fund II) in 1998, a $620 million fund (Fund III) in 2002, and its current, $1.2 billion fund (Fund IV) in 2005.

Re: [Vo]:Digital Journal reports on Industrial Heat deal with Rossi
Eric, your point is well taken. Very little IP can now be patented and defended. The ideas have either been described in rejected patents or they have been described in public. Any attempts made now to get a patent would only make the lawyers rich. Most of the patents presently granted also have very limited value, other than as comfort food. The important patent will result from correctly understanding the mechanism and applying it in the most effect way. The resulting recipe will be so good that no other improvement would be possible. Right now all the recipes are so poor, they could easily be improved, thereby making them irrelevant. The game can still be won, but not by the way it is presently being played.

[Vo]:energy driven superconductivity and IR coherence for LENR
For many years on the fringes of LENR - there has appeared to be this somewhat nebulous cross-connection between anomalous heat and ultra high temperature superconductivity. This is more suspicion than proof ... but IR photon coherence could be the glue that ties the two together. Energy driven superconductivity is a topic which may fit into this puzzle somehow. It is new to me, and this is an invitation for anyone who has looked at the cross-connection between LENR and superconductivity to expound on what they have seen. It is a new way of looking at superconductivity to describe it in terms of a lower kinetic energy state. For now, the theories of energy driven superconductivity do not necessarily predict ultra high temperature states, and these would be needed to include the Rossi HotCat, so this analysis may be an exercise in futility. However, there is a nagging suspicion that reaching a high state of order at a temperature plateau, such as what has been called triple coherency could also suddenly lower the net energy of a synced system in such a way that at least numerous states of local superconductivity resulted. Local superconductivity could be defined as an accumulation of atoms in a structure like a nanodot, nanorod or nickel-embedded CNT (as in Zhao paper below) - which results in what looks like very high temperature SC as discussed here: http://cdn.intechweb.org/pdfs/17002.pdf attachment: winmail.dat
Re: EXTERNAL: Re: [Vo]:BLP's announcement
In analysis, it is important to understand what is fundamental and what is emergent. Are electrons fundamental or do they emerge from something more basic. For example, the spin net model of the vacume purports to show the derivation of photons, electrons, and U(1) gauge charge, small (relative to the planck mass) but nonzero masses, and suggestions that the leptons, quarks, and gluons, can be modeled in the same way. In other words, string-net condensation provides an unification of photon and electron (or gauge bosons and fermions). It can be viewed as an origin of light and electron (or gauge interactions and Fermi statistics). Under this way of thinking, an electron is a break(topological defect) in a light string. The string net liquid is the first medium from which the Maxwell equations can be derived. In condensed matter physics, a string-net is a fundamental extended object whose collective behavior has been proposed as a physical mechanism for topological order by Michael A.

RE: [Vo]:Understanding BLP: Chapter 3
Mike, If anyone has seen Mills' standard NDA, this is laughable since there is absolutely no way that any of these tests are independent. It is a sad mischaracterization to say, or imply, independence. But of course, the strong NDA and payment for services does not mean that the tests cannot be accurate, and they may be accurate, only that they are FAR from independent. Others can make of that what you will but beware - the independent tests stopped with Thermacore, circa 1995. Actually I have never expressed the view that Mills does not show an energy anomaly. In all probability he does. My contention is that the anomaly is clearly LENR related - and that Mills is in denial that his reaction is a predecessor condition for optimizing LENR.

Hydrinos, shmeamos. Jones is on the right track with his energy coherence. Exaggerated claims do not attract me. Mill's device is a million times hotter than fire! That would place the temp at 3 billion degrees. That would be hotter than a Tokamak. I uses very hot hydrodynamics. What does he make the electrodes out of, neutronium! That's a claim in itself. An what about all of those hydrinos, where do they go? What about all of the x-rays from the an inner election reactions. Why is he not dead? Reminds me of many older inventors who have failed. Henry Moray for example. Not only did his device produce energy but it could detected the faintest radio signals. In today's world of satellite communications such a claim is truly dated.

Re: [Vo]:Understandin BLP: Chapter 3
Frank, You say that Mill`s device is a million times hotter than fire. That is not correct: The powerdensity of the hydrino reaction is 1 million times higher that that of gasoline combusion mainly due to the rate of hydrino transition compared to the rate of gasoiline combustion ( 5000 times higher) So per second many more reactions can take place then during gasolibe combustion. Also the hydrino reaction is much more energetic ( 200x). The hydrinotransition can cause significant Balmerline broadening ( 50 eV). The electrodes can hold that kind of temperature, when adequately cooled.

Framk, the hydrino transition radiation is in the low nanometer range, to which everything is opaque and be seen only with vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopy. That region is also called 'soft X-rays'. That fact causes difficulty in extracting the energy; you can just let the reactor get hot - but that is inefficient.

Re: [Vo]:Reply to Frank Zindarsik
The commercial preparation of nanoparticles is usually done using the arc discharge method. In the arc process, high heat is used on the material until it evaporates and forms a vapor. When the vapor cools it condenses forming nanoparticles. This process has been used previously to prepare nanoparticles of aluminum, silicon, copper oxide, zinc oxide gold, silver, carbon nitrogen, potassium, sodium, and hydrides. In the near future this method will be extended to other materials as well. The benefit of this method is nanoparticles can be prepared from relatively affordable bulk materials.

Re: [Vo]:Industrial Heat Acquires E-Cat Technology
There were a number of operating systems around at that time but few that would run on the 8086/8088 hardware. One with multitasking was the iRMX86 OShttp://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pdf/intel/iRMX/142721-003_iRMX_86_System_Programmers_Reference_Manual_May81.pdfsupplied by Intel with its 8086/8088 chips for real time development. I don't know how or why they overlooked that. My suspicion is that the real reason they chose MS-DOS was that Bill Gates's mother had direct contacts with the IBM board of directors. If that's the case, it would make me feel quite a bit better about my decision to abandon development of an 8086/8088 OS -- a development that started before the first silicon was shipped while I was at the PLATO project where we modified the CDC Cyber COMPASS assembler to produce the instructions documented on the preliminary datasheets, and execute on an emulator running on the Cyber 6500 during off-hours. The reason I initiated that project, with some of the PLATO system programmers (Ray Ozzie was a system programmer at PLATO but was consumed by his work on the Z80 firmware) was that I foresaw the horror of a bad operating system becoming the network-effect atop Moore's Law, and wanted to head it off. Others, primarily Steve Freyder, agreed and pitched in. It was obvious to me that whoever got the critical mass OS for that platform would have a natural monopoly and lock out competition -- including superior operating systems. I abandoned that project only because Mike Pavloff at Control Data HQ offered me a position at the Arden Hills Operations where I could pursue a mass market version of the PLATO network which would have, using Ozzie's Z80 firmware, bypassed the personal computer era entirely with a Mac-like UI and built-in 1200bps modem starting in 1981 with a monthly service charge of $40/month including terminal rental. We had that system benchmarked out at a scale that could have deployed nation wide late in 1979, but Wall Street analysts smelled blood and were ripping Bill Norris (the Nebraska farm boy that founded CDC with Seymour Cray) limb from limb due to his billion dollar investment in PLATO. CDC middle management mutinied and reneged on their agreement to let me pursue a mass market version of PLATO. I fled CDC and tried to revive something similar at Knight-Rider's joint venture with ATT, but that is another storyhttp://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=2702791cid=39217853 . Suffice to say, when I saw MS-DOS I knew a horror had been unleashed and that Gates would become extremely wealthy.

Re: [Vo]:Mills's theory
Jeff, I have toyed with the concept of traveling faster than light and mentioned some of the consequences I expect on this list a while back. From the electrons point of view, its mass remains the same regardless of any velocity it may have relative to other observers. The only way I can understand the behavior of particles circulating within an accelerator is to assume that time dilation and length contraction must exist between relative observers. The operators of the device measure the speed of the electron as it circles the accelerator ring and see that it is moving at almost the speed of light. Time therefore passes much slower for the electron from the operators point of view. This condition should make the electron's mass appear greater to the machine operator, but that may be just his conclusion based upon the difficulty in changing the direction of the electron with his magnetic deflection process. The same should be true for any electric field acceleration process. This behavior makes sense if the electron is significantly exceeding the speed of light by its measurement referenced to the dimensions of the accelerator when the electron is at rest. The time dilation and length contraction work hand in hand in this particular case. We might assume that the same situation holds for an electron orbiting a proton of hydrogen in the small orbitsphere fractional energy cases. Perhaps that would allow larger denominators than 137, in which case the electron moves faster than light and time dilation and length contraction greatly impacts its behavior. If true, the fraction 1/137 just happens to be the special case where the electron speed(as estimated by the electron) is that of light, but smaller fractions may be possible. After all, most series do not truncate at an odd term, so maybe the series goes to 1/infinity if time dilation and length contraction are taken into account. It would be an interesting calculation to determine the radius of the orbitsphere when the fraction is 1/infinity while taking time dilation and length contraction into account. That might suggest that the atomic electron states of hydrogen could go from infinity to 1/infinity which is well balanced. That is the kind of beauty I like to see in nature. Jeff, have you seen any derivation from Mills' equations that specifically point to the 1/137 fractional orbitsphere as being special? Could it be that this just happens to be fairly close to the physical constant and assumed equal? I have to ask why 1/138 is not a valid value as well. I am not convinced that Mills' theory is correct in any way, but am speculating about some interesting characteristics that may be possible if it has validity. Mark this post as blue sky wild speculation.

There is time dilation and length contraction for an object (the electron) as it approaches the speed of light - but essentially the physicists are saying don't interpret that as mass increase. I found this quote from Einstein on the hyperphysics website: Einstein's point of view is described in the following quote: It is not good to introduce the concept of the mass of a moving body for which no clear definition can be given. It is better to introduce no other mass concept than the 'rest mass' m. Instead of introducing M (the relativistic mass that approaches infinity at v = c) it is better to mention the expression for the momentum and energy of a body in motion. http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/relativ/tdil.html#c3 I find it amazing that these 5 simple energy equations (from my earlier post) still work even though electron is undergoing length contraction and time dilation as it approaches the speed of light at orbit state n = 1/137. Mills says that the ratio of charge to mass (e/m) is a constant for the orbiting electron as it approaches the speed of light. I was hoping that would be the reason that the energy equations work correctly during time dialation and length contraction for the electron - but I don't see that in the equations so that may not be the answer. But the end result is amazing in terms of elegance 5 simple equations all equal the rest mass of the electron to 9+ significant digits.

Re: [Vo]:Increasing probability of Rossi being real upwards, to 35%
Great link James, my concern is that the expiry date on that is getting a bit close. Not sure this will be out in the public knowledge before 2015. That market is also thinly traded (probably because it's play money) which leads to speculation by actors without compensation to spend real time investigating these issues.
