Dear Robert,
as an engineer with more than 53 years practice, in my opinion
the definitory virtues of an engineer are;
a) Problem solving mentality and ability (real life problems);
b) Dedication to technological progress in his field
c)Work discipline in sys-thinking (systematic and system based)
).

Strange, in my observation 3 things define the best engineers I know (of
few hundred I have met):
1 Excellent/encyclopedic memory - at least for engineering stuff, may not
be able to remember their friends names or where they put their keys.
2 Good at mental calculation (assess what-ifs quickly).

If I could elaborate a little bit more on this: it doesn't surprise me
that someone with a poor memory can also be an excellent engineer. The
two traits go together. With me, for instance, it's because I have a
hard time remembering, that I have become an excellent problem solver.

As I wrote here at the time, before Rossi invited Krivit, he invited me. He

What Krivit was likely EXPECTING was a 'test'; what he GOT was a 'demo'; two
very different things.

We all know that Rossi has some personal credibility problems. H
Jed, I just want tell you as somebody with research and practical
experience in pyrolysis of organics, mainly polymers including
rubber- that the Petroldragon affair was most probably 80%
techno-blunder and 20% scam, very uninspired.The disaster
was predictable.
