the report is not so convincing, except it have no value, a joke for the most kind. what is convincing, like for Lugano and DGT Milano, is that absence of any serious and credible answer. For me at this stage, it is definitive. if Rossi have something, he sure have lied and manipulated his partner

This is a key point to rule out the theories of Rossi's defenders. If IH was sincere, and enthusiastic as it is clear, this remove the theories that they tried to fake a negative result. What was fake was the methods, like in Lugano. Even if you swallow the theories that it works, the way the test
