I have a friend, very smart guy, who I've been working on over time with
occasional CF/LENR tidbits and arguments. Lately he wrote this, and gave me
permission to send it along.

It may be to our advantage that Rossi and others are thought to be fools or
frauds. Let the PTB find out otherwise amidst surprize and their own ruin.

Jed, I agree (almost) completely with all you said here; very well put.
However, while I agree the main 'CF' industry will be by mid- and large
corps, I do still believe that there will be a rather large, worldwide,
'underground' micro-lenr industry. Not quite cottage, but local full

Some of these may carry 'off brand' or locally made small scale, lenr
devices special built for local or idiiosyncratic uses.
That would resemble the place I bought my latest
Pretty good summary of the 'players' in this game.
Given the cleverness (aka, deviousness) of the human animal, and the very
high stakes that LENR involves, I think anything you can imagine happening
has or will play out.

I like your analogy with CPU's industry (and more generally with IC
industry). In this particular industry, there are 3 main fields:
Basic research
Conception
Manufacturing
For the 2 fields that are conception and manufacturing, there is currently

There is only one robust way of dealing with this problem:

Curve fitting can be quite useful in estimating values between points provided
the fit is adequate. I generally make an effort to use the lowest power
polynomial fit and monitor the error. If the fitting curve does not closely
approach your data points then you might be in big trouble relying

I'm particularly fond of this older transmutation paper:

your low COP claim. Rossi insists that he can obtain a COP of 6 and DGT was

If the COP were in fact limited to 1.5 at low temperature operation then it
would be a valid concern that few applications would arise out of LENR devices.
The evidence does not suggest that low COP operation is the only available
option. I expect that proof of my assumption will soon become

Thus Patterson, Storms, Swartz and many other who report much better COP

I did not make the main point of that post clear.
There certainly could be a higher gain regime - or not. But the claims of
Rossi are essentially meaningless.
The major point to me in the big picture - and it is way beyond coincidence.
