Shaun, Bryce may be well respected but he is doing a very poor job regarding his research on the technology (and LENR in general).

Re: [Vo]:Ian Bryce and Rossi
Exactly, you have no proof. What you have is the same thing Rossi has, Rossi says, Smith says, Shaun says I didn't hear half of the nonsense you are posting in that interview with Bryce, who by the way seems as clueless to me as a lot of the Rossi followers just on the other side of the nut house. Frankly, I am really tired of all the speculation, when you have something beside he said, she said, come back. The same goes for all those supporting Rossi. I used the Vortex for real information before Maryyugo popped in and the rest of the nuts on either side of this drama. I wish it would go back to a more fact based site for information flow.

If someone lies to you about just about everything that they do and has a history of prior convictions for fraud and has two major projects consecutively that were disastrous failures, there is no reason to believe anything they say without proof.

[Vo]:Ian Bryce and Rossi
Been a Vortex web lurker too long. Finally something that blows up Rossi, his lunatic supporters and exposes how this scam works. http://skepticzone.libsyn.com/webpage/the-skeptic-zone-170-21-jan-2012 It is good to see Ian Bryce of the Australian Skeptics taking a slice out of Rossi, doing the numbers and openly showing Rossi's data doesn't stack up and is fabricated. I bet plenty of people at that meeting still invested their money. Too bad there are plenty of green and stupid people around who want to believe Rossi and his E-Cat will save the planet, even when Ian Bryce shows them it fails the 3 legged stool test. Don't you find it very interesting Rossi was scheduled to talk, via a Skype video link, to a group of family sized investors, despite saying that he was not interested in personal investors? I bet the licensee, after talking with Bryce and seeing he was negative, told Rossi not to call. Ok Rossi may not be interested in private investors for Leonardo Corp but instead is working with his licensees to hook in private investors for them and in return for him. Now it is becoming clearer how this scam works. Seems Mary, Jones and others here were correct. There is a scam going on. Dick Smith and Ian Bryce have exposed how it works and apparently are working to stop it as they are now asking for people any country who have been approached to invest in local E-Cat licensees to come forward and contact the Australian Skeptics. It is good to be an Australian skeptic, see someone prove my doubts were correct and to finally see this scam exposed as to how it works and before anyone loses any more money.
