Mine cryptocurrency.. if someone can figure out how to generate 
electricity, mining machines can consume as much of it as can be 
produced.. not $1000/mo but $millions per month, actually the only limit 
would be obtaining enough mining hardware.


If you generate electricity in-house and burn it on crypto, you're also 
avoiding paying any VAT on the electricity, which might be beneficial..

Hi,
[snip]
This hydrogen enrichment can be accomplished with a membrane which is 
more
porous to hydrogen than to oxygen. Many tightly woven fabrics like 
Gore-Tex
are in this category. The idea is to split the HHO into two stream, 
one
H-rich and the other O-rich. The H-rich steam will be ported into one 
end of
the CC and the O-rich stream can come in from a hole drilled in the 
side of
the CC. This separation via two steams provides a supply of hot H2 to 
react
before it is converted to steam, but in the end, it still retains all 
the
heat of the HHO plus the added heat of Ni-H. It is a bastardized 
approach

but it can work.


There is an even simpler method. Just use ordinary DC electrolysis, 
where the

oxygen and hydrogen are evolved at different electrodes, resulting in
a complete
separation from the start.



A gallium aluminium reaction might also be a good way to go;

the oxygen ends up bound to the aluminium so I think you should end up 
with fairly pure hydrogen gas..


I've seen other videos that used this (gallium) paste;

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/cool-laboratory-Coollaboratory-Liquid-Pro-Liquid-Metal-Thermal-Paste-/351004610402?_trksid=p2054897.l4275

just put a few drops on a strip of aluminium from an old can.. should 
also work for producing deuterium gas using heavy water.

That's pretty much exactly the problem with climatologists- they only 
believe in global warming (sorry climate change) because that's what 
they do.. as you say the field as a whole is biased.


IMO you don't need to know anything about climate science to understand 
global warming - it's all about politics and banking (imagine a global 
economy underpinned by financial products where the only underlaying 
deliverable is itself an intangible book keeping entry). The powers that

to ram it down everyone's throats. It doesn't matter if it's a pack of

Frankly, thats silly. That reminds me of assertions that oil
companies are suppressing cold fusion. Or the counter-assertions by
opponents that cold fusion researchers are only in it for the grant
money. Believe me, there is no grant money in cold fusion!


But there is for doing climate science.. maybe they're not getting rich 
off it, but it's better than doing cold fusion anyway ;)



I know enough climatologists to know they are not living high on the
hog. They do not rake in the dollars. They work long hours on 
tedious,

demanding, boring science.


I don't doubt that.. the climatologists themselves aren't going to 
benefit much either way (although I'm sure many of them make a modest 
livings out of it - and that's not nothing these days). They're merely 
needed to produce those tedious reports.. they just need to keep 
churning out talking points to keep the issue alive. The profits and 
power will be made by the international carbon financiers. Anticipation 
of these profits is what drives the global warming agenda, the climate 
science just a necessary part of the set.



Life is not a conspiracy or a potboiler made-for-TV movie.


No, it's even stranger.

Look, that is ridiculous. People do not act that way! A person does
not spend 5 or 10 years slaving away to get a PhD without being in
love with the subject. You dont do that just to get some meaningless,
dead-end job churning out fake data for corporations for 60 hours a
week.


I'm not saying they don't believe in what they're doing.. there must be 
lots of legitimate data showing climate change.. the climate does change 
after all. The point I was making that is that the climate science is 
simply irrelevant to understanding global warming / the climate change 
issue which is better understood as a political and financial 
phenomenon.


I'm already regreting entering the discussion.. so I'll drop it, it 
doesn't seem like we'll be reaching any kind of concensus. :)

[Vo]:Detecting a transmutation - bismuth - polonium

2012-06-12 Thread Robert McKay

Hi Vortex,

I was wondering what might be the best way to try transmuting bismuth 
into radioactive polonium. I was thinking something along the lines of 
taking some bismuth powder, loading it with pressurised deuterium or 
hydrogen gas that had been sparked with a spark plug for a while.. any 
chance that some of it might turn into polonium? Maybe mix some carbon 
dust in there too in case that helps.


Basically my thinking is that while calorimetry is tricky when dealing 
with low amounts of excess heat, it might be much easier to measure the 
presence of even tiny amounts of radioactivity. What do you think?


Cheers,
Rob

As long as LENR can't be patented there is no way for it to be really

the e-cat will be out of the bag and you'll have dealextreme.com selling

For some time now it would appear that Sterling has been showing more

is miffed over the allegations that Rossi sez his eCats aren't 
nuclear

devices.

 ...that and the fact that the location of the hinted-at Florida
factory is an apartment address.

Trying to put the best face forward the above article points out 
that:



It should also be noted that by using a home office Rossi can write
off part of his home in his taxes in the US. So it makes pretty good
business sense.


Shoot! I sure wish I cold work from home. My wife sure does.

Rossi watching can be fun. You never know what's going to happen 
next.


It doesn't make any sense to switch to supporting DGT. The company was 
formed as part of the Rossi venture. Either they're both scams, or 
neither are.

From the link;

The radiation emitted by the reactor left nuclear tracks, burned the
hole pattern of the core into the clear PVC core enclosure, activated
high neutron absorption cross-section 39Cl (56 minute half-life) in
the chlorine of the PVC core enclosure and transmuted the water in the
reactor into nearly all the other elements. The experiment also
accidentally resulted in acute radiation sickness beginning the day

[Vo]:Re: [Vo]:Re: [Vo]:Re: [Vo]:Rossi's Information regarding Leonardo Corporation’s Commercial License Policy

2012-02-16 Thread Robert McKay
2012/2/16 Andre Blum andre_vor...@blums.nl:

 Nowhere does Rossi say the invoice is fabricated. He just says it is
 'unvalid', which apart from not entirely correct or usual English, is a bit
 vague, and maybe intentionally so. (he might be conveniently hiding behind
 his language barrier, here, knowing he gives the impression that it is
 fabricated, but keeping options open in case more evidence pops up).

 My feeling is that the invoice is real. The rest of the message very much
 acknowledges that he has indeed been selling commercial licenses bound to
 territories, so I wouldn't know why the Byron New Energy Charity Trust
 couldn't be one of them. [ Nor do I understand exactly why that would
 incriminate Rossi much ]

Agreed. See this paragraph of Rossi's post;

After the interested persons sign the agreement, we send an invoice,
and the agreement is deemed valid only after the payment of the
license fee is done within the term agreed. If the payment is not
done, the agreement expires and that invoice for which the payment has
not been made is compensated in the accounting by a credit memo.

So basically he seems to be saying that invoice is 'unvalid' because
Byron never paid him.

Re: [Vo]:Rossi lies again to cover his data fraud

2012-01-23 Thread Robert McKay
 Do you think others have not thought of this before?  The RFG could not have
 imparted a power anywhere close to 10Kw.  And if the SBB was supplying DC
 current at all, that power would still have been registered on the AC supply
 line.  10Kw of power is not something you can hide easily.

What if the AC wall socket itself were rigged to supply the DC with a
slight AC ripple?
