Hi,

  Need 500C steam for electrical. 

At 120C steam the inside 


temperature is too high .. not a very stable situation.

This just means that the thermal conductivity needs to be improved. A design and
materials issue.

This got stuffed up during composition. It should be:

Fission reactors run at 300-350 C.

THE Massachusetts LEGISLATURE



http://www.statehousenews.com/skedtuesday.htm
.No House or Senate sessions
today.
EDITOR'S NOTE: According to Sen. Bruce Tarr, Andrea Rossi, the
Italian scientist who claims to have developed the world's first nuclear
cold fusion reactor is coming to the State House tomorrow to explore the
prospects of developing the device and producing it in
Massachusetts. Tarr's office says Rossi plans to visit
Tuesday morning for two days of meeting with government officials and
representatives of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the
University Massachusetts and Northeastern University. Mr.
Rossi's reactor, if successfully proven and developed, has the potential
to change the way the world deals with energy, Tarr said in a
statement.
- - - - - I put the following conversationally, as if I were
asking them. Not that I want to put words in your mouth !!!
-
You are presently selling 1MW eCats, with 13 to a mystery
customer, and say that you are fully booked with back-orders. 
Could you clarify whether these will be 13 separate installations, or one
huge 13MW plant?
You have also declined orders for 100kW Units, although you have
previously said you would consider them.
But now you have opened an Options List for 10kW domestic
units (with the possibility of heat, cooling and electrical output). If
you get 10,000 people on the list (and I know of two who have
signed up already) you will start a crash-program to develop a domestic
eCat within a year. How will you manage to get USA domestic
certification -- including Underwriters Laboratories or equivalent -- in
that short time?
At a trivial level, you say that recharging an eCat will cost only $10,
once every 6 months. Surely that will be higher if you include the
technician's cost. Or will you just send a new cartridge for the
homeowner to install?
- - - - - I sent in a late email, saying don't ask this one : - - -
- - -
Most outsiders -- including supporters -- say that none of
your many tests has been conclusive -- with questions of steam quality or
thermocouple placement -- and only Professor Levi's private 19 hour test
in February was long enough to eliminate all possible fakes. 
Nobel Prize-winner Brian Josephson, who has been a consistent supporter
(the Wiki page would have been deleted without his efforts) , and whom
Levi invited to the October 6 test, has pleaded with you to permit just
one more fully-independent and rigorous scientific test -- as a
calorimetric test only. He believes this would open many doors in
government circles -- including the patent office. Do you really
think it is better to go it alone on a commercial basis
only?
- - - - - --
Note that I didn't ask for any technical details, because he wouldn't
give them.

Annual subscription, surely.  Not worth $49 for this one audio only. though.
If there's something particular you want to know, I can re-listen and 
make a closer transcript.

(Maybe Bill will relent and release it earlier).

General demeanor : Rossi was very relaxed and laughing.

Rossi has consistently stated that he does not like playing bones
with other people's  money which is very commendable.
However, it is not commendable of him to use scientific associations
to promote interest in his ECAT, and refuse an independent
evalusation of the ECAT's performance. Rossi either does not care or
is unware that he is playing with the hearts of many scientists and
all his science orientated supporters.

Thanks for the information, Alan.

The article announcing the interview is one large softball.
Everything in it is Rossi says but is presented as if it were fact.
I find that unconscionable for someone presenting themselves as a
reporter.  It casts into doubt everything claimed by the web site
which is a pity for me  because I like electric cars.  Actually I like
hybrids.  I don't care for all electric cars because I don't own a one
hundred mile long extension cord.
