I believe you should do a much simpler test. As I said, an experiment is best when reduced to minimum number of components. That is, when you test the claim to its essence. You keep it "clean." Test one thing at a time, in isolation, rather than the entire range of behavior the eCat exhibits. There

I wish someone had taken the considerable trouble to duplicate Rossi's small E-cat and "Ottoman" (Oct 6) experiments. By this, I mean to make devices as similar as possible as Rossi's and to show that the experimental results K&E and Lewan got could be obtained by mismeasurement rather than LENR h

Your interpretation of "begun" should be constrained by the context of the original question in which "begun" is contrasted with "starting up". However, your interpretation of "begun" was not so constrained. I suggest you restate your argument with that in mind. On Sat, Dec 10, 2011 at 8:03 AM,
