Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
Recognition is not the issue here. The issue is property rights. Even if Apple, Google, and Microsoft get away with stealing other companies technologies (or having to pay a fine) it is not OK. If a company is found to be using another company's tech without permission, the offending company should not be allowed to sell products using the tech. We do not know if Defkalion is using Rossi's tech (or tech directly inspired by the E-Cat) or not. But if they are, I hope Rossi will do everything legal and lawful in his power to stop them.

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
The big issue here is the catalysts and special preparation of the nickel powders (enrichment with certain isotopes). If they are using his catalyst or developed a catalyst of their own by examining the catalysts of the E-Cat when they were not supposed to do so, I think that is unethical. Also, he claims that his enrichment methods are proprietary. Even if they avoided making a copy by having access to his catalyst when they were not allowed to do so, they are still in the wrong. The way I see it, if they ever gained access to Rossi's IP without permission and used it in the development of their technology, their technology is not original. The only way for their technology to be one hundred percent original is if they never gained any information about the E-Cat without permission, or if they did, used engineers to develop the Hyperion that were never given access to that information. In addition, Andrea Rossi has stated that he regularly produces 1600C inside the reactor cores. The units that he is building for home use and in one megawatt plants will probably have lower internal temperatures, for stability. The ECat can produce high temperatures, but the problem is at high temperatures the system can go unstable, and melt the nickel powder. They may or may not be ahead of Rossi. They have not allowed a single test so far. It is possible they are ahead of the ECat, but we need test data to find out.

2 and 3 would be a tragedy, because it would mean the Hyperion is not original. It could also mean that they are using Rossi's IP without permission. I hope Defkalion's technology is original.

According to the amp-hour rating of those batteries (102 Ah each), without being recharged from an external source, they should have lasted only 35 minutes before running down completely, no longer able to power the system. The load was roughly 4 kW, comprised of: - a two-burner stove, each burner consuming 1 kW (rated power according to manufacturer) - a toaster that consumed 850 Watts (rated power) - a pancake maker that consumes 1 kW (rated power) - A 40-Watt fan (rated power) http://pesn.com/2012/02/22/9602042_South_African_Fuel-Free_Generator_P reparing_for_Market/ Except for the fan, these are all resistive loads, and hard to fool. Note in the report that for the larger units they had an industrial resistor bank at hand as a load. AND http://www.mail-archive.com/vortex-l@eskimo.com/msg63222.html … but as we have mentioned here on vortex many times, if this battery shuttling technique, using back EMF, does work – and there is no firm proof that it does but lots of positive anecdotal evidence, then the reason it works is probably related to some from of LENR in the battery itself ! IOW - the battery, which is an electrochemical cell, not unlike the ones used in PF and most of LENR, is the active source of power. Lead-acid batteries seem to be particularly adaptable to the technique. NB: the sum of the first three electrons in the valence shell of the atom of Pb, has net ionization potential of 54.4 eV, which is the prime Rydberg value for the T-effect (Thermacore effect) which is seen in experiments going back to 1990, first patented by Thermacore. Jones - - - - - - - - - - Lets presume for the moment that the output is real. The effect occurs only in lead-acid batteries, during the discharge phase, at a time when the negative plate is mostly lead. (During this phase the other battery is recharged -- their roles are switched periodically) Discharge http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead%E2%80%93acid_battery#Discharge Negative plate reaction: Pb(s) + HSO− 4(aq) → PbSO4(s) + H+(aq) + 2e− Positive plate reaction: PbO2(s) + HSO− 4(aq) + 3H+(aq) + 2e− → PbSO4(s) + 2H2O(l) So hydrogen is intimately involved with both plates. This may be analogous to the classical LENR loading requirement. Secondly, a high-frequency FUTZ is applied to the discharging battery. Again, note the similarity to the various triggers required for LENR -- particularly voltage pulses. So at least TWO of the required LENR conditions are satisfied. So ... what are the candidate metals? a) Lead -- but I can't find any reports of Lead in LENR (except in the solder on the terminals). But if we look at : Plates http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead%E2%80%93acid_battery#Plates Practical cells are usually not made with pure lead but have small amounts of antimony, tin, calcium or selenium alloyed in the plate material to add strength and simplify manufacture. b) Tin -- NOW we start to get some hits: http://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/MenloveHOreproducib.pdf REPRODUCIBLE NEUTRON EMISSION MEASUREMENTS FROM Ti METAL IN PRESSURIZED D2 GAS H.

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
Indeed Jed, I found this somewhat hilarious, that people (e.g. Noone noone) are accusing Defkalion about IP-theft. I have previously stated, that current patent legislation is outdated, because the benefit of IP-rights cannot even remotely offset, the cost of lawyers and bureaucracy involved in both public sector and private sector. This is especially true in medical sector where patentability is grossly abused in order to accumulate capital and suppressing competition. If Alex's story is true how they acquired the composition of catalyst, then Rossi willingly gave and showed the formula to Defkalion. It is not Defkalion's duty to close their eyes if Rossi is showing his technology. However, I somewhat doubt that and if Defkalion has something, they figured it out independently ― perhaps on a basis of minor hints. Also as Jed stated, it is purely Rossi's own fault if he did not do proper patenting of his technology. I have some doubts that patenting cold fusion phenomena as such is not going to give sufficient IP protection. Also my guess is that Rossi has serious problems of making his cold fusion technology commercially viable. Thus he is probably delaying that his 'letting customers decide' -approach several years. Therefore, I would say that it is great service to humanity, if Defkalion has 'stolen' and then improved his technology to be commercially viable. Someone should have 'stolen' Rossi's cold fusion technology back in 2008! Also I find it hilarious, that Defkalion is accused about theft only because he stole something from Rossi that did not work (low COP and great instability), but made it working technology (high COP and great temperature and stability). I cannot comprehend that it could be the same technology, if Defkalion's technology is claimed to work where as Rossi's ecat technology is claimed to not work commercially viable manner. Of course main problem we have here that, there are too many of those, who are claiming things... But as I have been negative towards Defkalion, they can earn my trust, if they are really going to do what they have been claiming. These tests would be first concrete step forwards taken by Defkalion. ―Jouni Sent from my iPad On 24 Feb 2012, at 16:53, Jed Rothwell jedrothw...@gmail.com wrote: noone noone thesteornpa...@yahoo.com wrote: Possibility #2 -- A copy cat of Rossi's technology, using his intellectual property without permission.

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
A principled inventor would not accept a penny in damages in exchange for the other company to continue selling the products. A principled inventor would demand that the other company re-call their products, and be forced to STOP SELLING THEM. If I was an injured inventor, I would want sales to stop immediately. I would want them to stop so I could sell the products from my company, or from officially licensed parties. The lure of a hundred billion dollars would not be enough to make me sacrifice my principles. If Rossi has had his technology stolen or has his technology stolen in the future (I do not know if it has happened or will happen) then I hope he does not receive the Noble Prize, or any payments from those who have copied his technology. I would hope for one thing, that the companies who have copied his technology are forced to recall any products they have sold, and stop selling any more. If I was an inventor who had my tech stolen by Microsoft or Apple, I would demand the same thing. Even if it meant every single iPAD or iPhone that used my technology being taken off the market.

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
For the record, I do not know if Defkalion is using a copy of Rossi's technology (or a technology developed after obtaining Rossi's IP without permission) or not. I do not know what the truth is about the situation. However, I find the comments from yourself and others who seem not to care about property rights very troublesome. All it seems some people care about is this technology getting out there regardless if theft has taken place. A world that allows theft to take place for the good of masses is not a world that I would want to live in. It would be a socialist, big government nightmare in which the individuals rights are sacrificed for the good of the many. I want cold fusion and other exotic technologies to change the world. I want it to save lives. But not at the cost of the inventors property rights! Again, money is not the issue here. If I were Rossi, money is not what would matter to me. I would turn down any dime of compensation. I would throw the Noble Prize on the ground and spit on it. I would only be satisfied if other companies that were copying my tech were forced to stop doing so.

[Vo]:Magnets In a Conductive Circuit
I was wondering if there was a way to get electrical energy by using a permanent magnet in a conductive path with iron wire. I think the Roy Meyer device worked this way, as well as perhaps the Coler devices that were exposed by British Intelligence after the war. http://www.rexresearch.com/meyers/meyers.htm Were there similiar devices found early in the development of electrical distribution systems? I'm thinking that it might be possible to get a magnetic field to oscillate thru an iron conductor and create current. This would be different from the MEG device that probably just creates apparent power without real gain.

When it comes to sticking to my principles, it does not matter what people think of me. I'm the kind of person who goes into church and asks Christians, who would Jesus bomb. At that point I'm automatically considered an evil liberal. In this life you can usually take two roads when it comes to most decisions. The first road is the one that is a compromise of your principles, and branches out to many different roads. This road is often easier to ride on, has fewer bumps, and makes a commute easy. The second road is the one where you refuse to budge one inch on your principles. It is full of bumps, and can easily get you a flat tire. For example, a woman divorcing her husband after being cheated on (THE FIRST TIME) despite having ten kids and no way to financially support them, and her husband apologizing. Divorce is the only appropriate answer, even if it could mean the kids end up being sent to orphanages and never seeing each other again. Some may say she should have not divorced her husband, but I believe her principles are more important than anything else. If I were Andrea Rossi and if my technology had been copied without permission (I'm not saying it has) I would let the world consider me the most evil man in history. I would sleep just fine at night knowing that I did the right thing, by standing up for not only my rights, and the property rights of all other inventors.

Free Energy Devices http://www.scribd.com/doc/21334918/Free-Energy-Devices In section 5 (p 161 -- discussing John Bedini) the idea of pulses-to-batteries seems to go back to Tesla! The Tesla Switch It doesn't stop there. Nikola Tesla introduced the world to Alternating Current (AC) butlater on he moved from AC to very short, sharp pulses of Direct Current (DC). He found that by adjusting the frequency and duration of these high-voltage pulses, that he could produce a whole range of effects drawn from the environment - heating, cooling, lighting, etc. The important point to note is that the pulses were drawing energy directly from the immediate environment. Leaving aside the advanced equipment which Tesla was using during those experiments and moving to Tesla's simple-looking 4-battery switch, we discover the same background operation of sharp voltage pulses drawing free-energy from the environment. ... The Electrodyne Corporation tested the Tesla 4-battery circuit over a period of three years. They found that at the end of that period, the batteries did not show any unusual deterioration. The batteries used were ordinary lead-acid batteries. The system operated lights, heaters, television sets, small motors and a 30-horsepower electric motor. If the batteries were run down to a low level and then the circuit switch on with a load, the recharging of the batteries took place in under one minute. No heating was experienced duringthis rapid charging. Heat was only produced during discharge cycles. If left undisturbed, each battery wouldcharge up to nearly 36 volts. Control circuitry was developed to prevent this over-charging. They used mechanical switching and stated that below 100 Hz there was not much advantage with the circuit and above 800 Hz it could be dangerous ...

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
It's been a slow-news Friday afternoon, so please accept my apologies for continuing this protracted discussion with noone noone: The world according to noone noone: If I invented a billion dollar technology and someone copied it without my permission, I would not accept a trillion dollars from a lawsuit. The only thing I would accept is for the other company to be forced to re-call all their products. Then I would make money by selling the products from my own company. When it comes to sticking to my principles, it does not matter what people think of me. It's been my experience that when I hear people boast that they don't care ...what other people think about [them]. they are essentially trying to convince themselves that they have found a magic bullet that allows themselves to become immune to what other people think about them. It matters, noone. It always matters. It's learning how to DEAL with how others think about you... that is a lesson in life we all must face. Its learning to find one's personal center. It's learning how to discover one's sense of personal integrity so that one can subsequently withstand the onslaught of external pressures demanding that we conform to specific social taboos. Quite frankly, it looks to me as if you are trying to remove yourself from having to deal with the anticipation of personal pain you fear you will feel based on what you fear others might say about you or think about you. You think you can avoid this lesson? Think again. Avoiding that lesson only means it will come back in another scenario again, and again, until you have the courage to pass through that fire. I'm the kind of person who goes into church and asks Christians, who would Jesus bomb. At that point I'm automatically considered an evil liberal. I have no idea how making such a statement about whom ...Jesus would bomb could possibly cause ANYONE to assume that you must therefore be an evil liberal. Are you sure you are reading their responses accurately, or is it possible that you hope you will be labeled as an evil liberal so that it gives you additional justification to dismiss how others will perceive you. From what you have told me so far, what all this seems to boil down to is the fact that you seem to be fishing around for convenient ways in which to avoid having to deal with how you fear others will perceive you. In this life you can usually take two roads when it comes to most decisions. The first road is the one that is a compromise of your principles, and branches out to many different roads. This road is often easier to ride on, has fewer bumps, and makes a commute easy. The second road is the one where you refuse to budge one inch on your principles. It is full of bumps, and can easily get you a flat tire. For example, a woman divorcing her husband after being cheated on (THE FIRST TIME) despite having ten kids and no way to financially support them, and her husband apologizing. Divorce is the only appropriate answer, even if it could mean the kids end up being sent to orphanages and never seeing each other again. Some may say she should have not divorced her husband, but I believe her principles are more important than anything else. I get the sense that certain elements pertaining to this hypothetical divorce scenario you have brought up may have touched on something that actually happened to you. In what capacity, I don't know. Nevertheless, you have my sympathies. Seeking counsel from individuals one has learned to trust is recommended. It can help. Now, in regards to the infidelity issue you cite here... quite frankly, noone, you are NOT dealing with principle here, even though you claim you are. The actions you cite have NOTHING to do with sticking to one's principles. To be perfectly blunt, you just don't want to deal with the complexities of what a dynamic relationship sometimes brings forth between two individuals. Sticking to the principals you cite here means you don't want to deal with WHY a spouse might have in the first place temporarily wandered from the sacred bonds and emotional security of marriage. You are using the excuse of sticking to your principles so that you can avoid some potential unpleasant soul-searching on your own part. What are you really afraid of? That maybe you'll discover the fact that you're just as imperfect as your spouse? After entering into discussion maybe a couple WILL discover the sad fact that they actually SHOULD separate, but then maybe such a drastic decision is unwarranted. Your principals would allow for no opportunity to explore all the choices - except for your principal of avoiding the whole matter altogether. If I were Andrea Rossi and if my technology had been copied without permission (I'm not saying it has) I would let the world consider me the most evil man in history. I would sleep just fine at night knowing that I did the right thing, by standing up for not only my rights, and the

The issue is not the design, but the catalysts and special treatment of the nickel powders. We do not need both companies if one company has stolen intellectual property. We do NOT know if this is the case. I am not saying they have stolen intellectual property. But if they have, they need to be stopped from selling any products that use Rossi's IP (or use IP they developed by studying Rossi's IP without permission.) Again, this is not about needs. The world needs this technology very badly, or I think modern civilization may not exist in 20 years. Despite how badly the world needs this technology, their needs are not more important than Andrea Rossi's right to property.

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
One, the fact is that when it comes to me standing up for my principles, I don't care what people think about me. I would rather they think favorably of me, but if they do not I am not going to let it change my behavior. I have been called all sorts of names for supporting my various beliefs, but I kept on going. I kept on going when it made me an outcast. I eventually embraced it and realized that when people react strongly against you, that is a sign you were bold enough in your declaration of values. If no one opposes you or reacts negatively, you were either preaching to the choir, or cowardly in your presentation. Secondly, when it comes to divorce and marriage, I think the moment someone has sexual relations with someone who is not the spouse the marriage is broken. First of all, it is broken spiritually. This is my personal religious belief. I think the spiritual connection that makes a couple married is cut. Secondly, I think the relationship is severely damaged even on a non-spiritual level. It will be very difficult for one partner to trust the other. I don't think the person who was cheated on will ever view the cheater in the same way again. Third, there are all kinds of other issues to do with. For example, the FACT that if someone cheats once they are likely to cheat again. If a couple wants to stay married that is one thing, but I think it is unprincipled. I am not married and have never been, but if I were married and my spouse cheated on me, I would strive to get the divorce done and over with ASAP. Thankfully, I've not been in a situation this horrible personally, but I've been in other situations were principled decisions yielded significant consequences. Of course if a couple are not Christian and have an open marriage and have no problem with sex outside the confounds of marriage, then cheating is not an issue at all. Third, I am a Christian, but many Christians are not real Christians. For example, consider the countless neo-cons in the United States that promote the idea of going to war with Iran and other Middle Eastern nations. They are rabid about this, and despise liberals. I have brought up the fact that many so called Christians have turned into blood thirsty warmongers by supporting wars with Iran and other nations, and have been attacked for it. I know how Christians think about this issue. Fourth, the simple fact is that when it comes to certain issues, there can be no ethical compromise. My religious views on marriage is one example. Standing up for rights and freedoms (property rights) is another example. For many things there is a need for compromise. But when it comes to rights and freedoms there is no room for compromise.

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
I am not an expert at law, but I would strive to stop someone from selling my technology without permission even if it was a futile battle. If I did decide to take money (if I thought it was the best way to fight against the company using my technology), I would let it be known to the courts that any money awarded to me would be instantly used to try and stop the activities of the party that stole my technology. For example, I would make products and give them away to stop people from purchasing products from the other company. Or I would wage a PR campaign against the other company. Also, a possibility would be to use the money to hire more lawyers to make the life of the company as miserable as possible. I would also not allow the offending company to obtain a license agreement. I would tell the Judge flat out that I would rather be publicly drawn, hung, and quartered rather than sign the piece of paper. He may end up awarding the technology ownership fully to the other company, but at least I would have stuck up for what was right. The world you are describing is a nightmare world, in my opinion.

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
Money is not the point. The point is that if a company steals a technology from an inventor (again I am not saying Defkalion has stolen anything, I am speaking hypothetically) the company who stole the technology should not be allowed to sell products using the technology. Of course if the inventor WANTS to make a deal with them that is fine. However, if he does NOT want to make a deal with them, it should be his option to have the company that stole his technology re-call their products. It does not matter if the inventor could make a trillion dollars, and the offending company would only make one million dollars. If a company steals a technology they do not deserve to make one red cent off it, if that is the inventor's decision. Rewarding theft is not acceptable. If anyone supports companies being allowed to use technologies they have stolen against the will of the inventor, they must also not have a problem with burglars making profit off items they steal when breaking and entering into someone's home. For example, what Jed Rothwell describes is exactly the same as the following scenrio. A burgler enters someones home and steals thousands of items. He then starts a business selling those items. For example, maybe the business was baseball cards. The issue goes to court and the Judge fines the burglar for stealing the cards, but then allows the burglar to continue running the business. The fact is if someone steals from you they should not be able to continue using the stolen items in their business, period! It does not matter how much they are fined, or how much money they are willing to give you for allowing their business to stay open. The victim should be able to choose if he wants the burglar's business shut down or not, at least when it comes to the use of the stolen items. It is the same exact thing.

They have ruled that the patent system cannot be used to prevent the spread of useful technology. They take a dim view of companies that seem to be stalling. In any case, patents do not last long and another company can often invent around the patent if the owner refuses to license it, so this strategy would not work. - Jed
Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
Of course other people can have different values, but it does not mean their values are the correct ones. There can only be one correct set of values for humanity when it comes to right and wrong. If you are for an open marriage, you are obviously not a Christian. I think you have the right to have an open marriage and the right to call yourself a Christian if you want. But I will state for the record that according to the Bible an open marriage is absolutely wrong, and immoral. However, as a small govt. advocate I would openly stand up for your right to be in an open marriage, or be married to a dozen women if you want. But at the same time I would say that you were living an immoral life that I thought was wrong. In my opinion, rights and freedoms are not to make your life better. They are about keeping you free. Being free may not always be easy or a good experience. Expressing your freedom can get you killed in many areas of the world. However, we are all born with certain rights and freedoms that come from our creator. We have to stand up for those rights and freedoms. Of course people have the choice not to. If they do not stand up for ALL their rights I think they have less moral grounds to complain when someone violates a certain right. For example, those who have no problem with inventors having their technology stolen if it benefits the planet have no moral authority to compalin if an evil person steals from them. Theft is theft.

I would rather they think favorably of me, but if they do not I am not going to let it change my behavior. I have been called all sorts of names for supporting my various beliefs, but I kept on going. I kept on going when it made me an outcast. I eventually embraced it and realized that when people react strongly against you, that is a sign you were bold enough in your declaration of values. If no one opposes you or reacts negatively, you were either preaching to the choir, or cowardly in your presentation. Secondly, when it comes to divorce and marriage, I think the moment someone has sexual relations with someone who is not the spouse the marriage is broken. First of all, it is broken spiritually. This is my personal religious belief. I think the spiritual connection that makes a couple married is cut. Secondly, I think the relationship is severely damaged even on a non-spiritual level. It will be very difficult for one partner to trust the other. I don't think the person who was cheated on will ever view the cheater in the same way again. Third, there are all kinds of other issues to do with. For example, the FACT that if someone cheats once they are likely to cheat again. If a couple wants to stay married that is one thing, but I think it is unprincipled. I am not married and have never been, but if I were married and my spouse cheated on me, I would strive to get the divorce done and over with ASAP. Thankfully, I've not been in a situation this horrible personally, but I've been in other situations were principled decisions yielded significant consequences. Of course if a couple are not Christian and have an open marriage and have no problem with sex outside the confounds of marriage, then cheating is not an issue at all. Third, I am a Christian, but many Christians are not real Christians. For example, consider the countless neo-cons in the United States that promote the idea of going to war with Iran and other Middle Eastern nations. They are rabid about this, and despise liberals. I have brought up the fact that many so called Christians have turned into blood thirsty warmongers by supporting wars with Iran and other nations, and have been attacked for it. I know how Christians think about this issue. Fourth, the simple fact is that when it comes to certain issues, there can be no ethical

Also Mark has written many very good articles, and he really does hope for better future. For example when he was interviewed, he showed his passion towards changing the world. His writing is not just clinical reporting, but he really does believe into ecat. Too bad that Rossi has behaved like lunatic and he should not deserve even that much attention what Mark has given to him. Mark has continued reporting even though he made the worst possible mistake that journalist can make, when he reported that National Instruments would be the Customer. This kind of spreading unconfirmed rumours is just unforgivable to any journalist.

RE: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
If your definition of Christianity is following every line of the bible, than I am not a Christian. But the bible itself says that the only requirement for Christianity is believing God sent someone down to die for our sins. By this definition, I am a Christian. I actually don't give a crap what the bible says. It's just a collection of made up stories. Why didn't Jesus come from China, India, or even America? There are more people in other areas of the world. And why should I believe in Christianity just because other people or my parents do? Most people believe in things that I disagree with like a democracy being the best form of government. If the majority of people are wrong about that, can't they be wrong about Christianity as well? You're saying you can't have values if you are not a Christian? Isn't cold fusion a gift from God, something God created, so Rossi would actually be stealing by hoarding this technology. Doesn't the bible say to help thy neighbor. Rossi has the chance to help millions of people, but he would rather hoard all of the wealth to himself. So, he would be going against his values at the same time he is sticking with his values. Most people want freedom because they think it will lead to a better life. If there was a situation where everyone knew freedom would lead to a worse life but their values would be upheld, no one, except maybe you, would want freedom.

The system cannot take into account only the intellectual property rights of the inventor, ignoring all other factors. If Defkalion succeeds I expect it will eventually benefit Rossi tremendously. He will make hundreds of millions of dollars. Left to his own devices, he would probably not make any money. I doubt that Defkalion has taken anything from him, but even if they have, he will probably get more from them than he could ever earn by himself. Don't fret about any of this.

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
I think that you should consider that Rossi and many before him are using technology that was derived by others. It is seldom as simple as you seem to think when IP is being judicated. I recall when the company I worked with at the time as well as its main competitor would periodically have a patent battle. We all knew the game: each company would list a number of patents that they held which they considered violated. After a few lawyers were paid off, both sides would agree to allow the others to proceed with their production. It is a joke to think that Rossi does not owe his design to the shoulders upon which he stands. Look at all of the patents before him if you really think that his hands are totally clean. You seem to think too much in black and white when business is always handled in shades of gray. And I have a hard time believing that you really would rather see damage to everyone, including your family, in order to stand up for a principle that is not valid. Please explain how Rossi can be sure that his IP has been stolen by anyone? The only way that a determination of this sort can be handled is after an extensive court battle where all of the important conversations, any technology transfers, or other happening are examined. Are you knowledgeable of details that we have not been a party to? You do recall Rossi making claims that DGT does not have any knowledge from him don't you? What more do you require?

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
I think there are critical aspects of Rossi's technology that are totally novel to cold fusion. Those are the ones that allow him to produce a practical amount of heat when no one else (that I am aware) has been able to do so. If these critical pieces of intellectual property have been stolen (I do not know if they have been or not) then I think he should do whatever it takes for him to stop any other company from using it without his permission. I realize IP issues are complicated. But in Rossi's case there is SOMETHING that is allowing him to produce huge amounts of heat. I think this is his catalyst and perhaps the specific preperation and enrichment of the nickel powder. I doubt that anyone could say that they own these aspects of his technology, because otherwise I think they would have tried to bring about a robust cold fusion technology years ago. This is not a joke. I am being serious. I not a very jovial person. I do NOT know if Rossi's intellectual property has been stolen or not. But from what I have read I cannot totally dismiss the possibility. The fact is I've already hurt myself and my family with decisions I have made that were based on principles. I'm sitting here unable to get the medical care (at least not without going through countless hoops) I need (nothing life threatening) because of my decisions. It is also the reason why I'm single and never married. I refused to compromise on my morals, even when the so called Christian women were willing to. I'm not a saint. I'm not perfect. I also do not claim that I've always stuck to every principle 100% of the time. I sin and I have to ask forgiveness. But I do my best to live an ethical life. If that hurts me financially or otherwise, I try to realize that you can't take with you anything when you are dead. You can only hope that you lived as ethically and morally as possible.

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
Hello Jed, Once again, everyone points out there will be plenty of money for everyone. Everyone is obsessed with money. I am not. The fact is if I was in a situation where I was an inventor and my technology was stolen, money would be the last thing on my mind. If I was forced to accept money, I would work with lawyers to try and find the best way to use it against the company that stole my technology. I would not care how much I had to benefit, or the world had to benefit. I am in the real world. I realize I am not a law expert, but at the same time I know what is right and what is wrong. If I had a technology that was stolen, I would simply strive to do anything and everything to prevent the other company from being able to use my technology. I might fail, and they might be allowed to sell the technology. But I would do everything (that is peaceful and non-violent) to hinder that company for the rest of my life. Hopefully, I would at least slow down the proliferation of the stolen technology. Once again, I am speaking about a hypothetical stolen technology. Sadly, you and others seem to think the needs of the many are more important than the rights of the individual. That is how our sickening world works these days (for the most part). However, I hope that will change in the future. The rights of the individual must be protected at all cost, because otherwise life becomes meaningless. If I do not have my rights and freedoms protected, I might as well not be alive. I do not agree about Rossi. One thing about Rossi is that he never gives up. He is also a very hard worker. I think he will be successful.

You can't talk in court. Only your lawyer can, and it has to be about the case. 2. They don't care what you use the money for.

In this case, the system has protect the interests of customers, and it has to promote technological progress. The system cannot take into account only the intellectual property rights of the inventor, ignoring all other factors. If Defkalion succeeds I expect it will eventually benefit Rossi tremendously. He will make hundreds of millions of dollars. Left to his own devices, he would probably not make any money. I doubt that Defkalion has taken anything from him, but even if they have, he will probably get more from them than he could ever earn by himself. Don't fret about any of this. It will probably work out well for everyone. There will be barrels of money. Enough for everyone. In 10 years the dispute will be forgotten. - Jed
Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
Here is a good example of someone who had their rights violated. http://www.therecord.com/news/local/article/676150--man-shocked-by-arrest-after-daughter-draws-picture-of-gun-at-school This guy had his rights violated in a number of different ways. He was not a criminal. Those that were involved in his abduction and sexual assault are the criminals. If a random person abducts a person and strips them naked it is a sexual assault. If a policeman does it for NO VALID REASON when no crime has been committed, it is a sexual assault too. There is no difference whatsoever. I would have not left the police station, and would have demanded to stay in the cell until everyone involved in my ABDUCTION was put in the cell instead. If they can arrest an individual for no valid reason, then logically that individual should be able to request to stay in their cell until the issue is settled. Of course due to the fact that the courts in this nation are biased against the rights of individuals, the man would probably have gotten in more trouble. But it would have been worth it. Even if his family suffered, he lost his job, or if his family got broken apart, it would have been worth it. If people do not stand up for their rights now, their children my end up in even worse situations in the future. What if his daughter one day got arrested for her daughter drawing an image of a vitamin supplement bottle (some are pushing for supplements to be regulated like drugs) such as Co Enzyme Q10? It could happen. If people don't start PEACEFULLY and NON-VIOLENTLY start demanding their rights be protected then before long we will have no rights at all. This is why I want space exploration to happen ASAP. I am hoping some colony worlds might be a bit saner than our planet is today. However, you and others will probably say the school and police were justified, because it was in the name of public safety or something. Well, as far as I know, the 2nd amendment is still in the constitution. If Rossi's rights have been violated by any company then he needs to stand up for himself. By doing so, he will also be standing up for all future inventors.

Re: [Vo]:Test day in Greece time
I think your reply address isn't configured to point to vortex-l. I hope Defkalion's technology is original. It very well may be. But if it is not, it is a shame that they did not simply pay Rossi earlier in 2011 so they could continue working together. Instead, if 2 or 3 is true, Rossi may be able to use legal means to stop them from using the tech without permission. Regardless of whether Defkalion's technology is original or not, a series of positive results would be a beautiful day for mankind. Andrea Rossi has submitted patent applications and has obtained at least one patent. If he has been forthright with his applications, he will have recourse to legal protection for any potential infringement. I personally think the patent system is fatally flawed, and I haven't the slightest sympathy for the idea of intellectual property. All kinds of things are patented that you could have thought up yourself, and in the process legal impediments are introduced into the creation of new technology without which the process would be purely creative. The system is set up to permit large corporations to raise high barriers to entry, and no legitimacy beyond that of money underlies the patent battles and the patent trolls that one sees these days, because if you have enough money you can purchase the patent bundles and hire the lawyers to enter into that whole game. The only part that ethics plays in any of this in my opinion relates to one's desire to be law abiding, even when some areas of it are inherently illegitimate. Eric

The conversation has moved on, but I should moderate the statement above, a little. I can think of some situations in which an injustice would be done to an inventor. An example is an inventor who puts a lot of his or her own personal time and money into an invention and in the process discovers a breakthrough, and then a better prepared competitor comes along and implements the idea without having to have put up the initial costs. So I disagree with my earlier statement that IP law is inherently illegitimate. But I'm often struck by defenses of it that go beyond let's not do anything rash. Creativity primarily involves putting a new spin on ideas that other people came up with. Eric
