No. The laws of physics and ordinary chemistry can explain all the

I consider the Oct. 6 test definitive.
Many capable scientists and engineers do not agree.
I have not heard from any yet.
How to break this to you? They don't care about you.

As I have pointed out before, that is an invalid argument. Rossi can

Now, do you sincerely think that the large generator was supplying the
heat energy to vaporize the water?
I don't have sincere thoughts about anything on this subject. It could be,
and that weakens Rossi's case. Those

Of course you are making a good point that they did use extra equipment to
ensure that the steam was very dry. The question is what is the dryness of
the steam before it entered those devices? Do you have any reference

The pressure must be established within the boiler so I guess the hotter
steam does not make its way back to the boiler. Is it likely that some

Of course you are correct if water is being forced out of the ECAT. I see
no reason to believe that that is the situation since an attempt was made
to measure the water and some was captured.
But we don't know how

You should give him a break about the trap.
He measured the input flow rate accurately. You and I and everyone else
would agree that the output flow rate and the input flow rate must be

To put it another way, older laws trump newer ones.
You mean like Newton's laws trump relativity and QM?
If calorimetry and thermodynamics prove that cold fusion does exist, you
cannot point to the newer laws
