I thought I'd put up a thread about something that a number of people have
mentioned here today, which is a news conference scheduled by the Triangle
Park Foundation for Monday where a major announcement is supposed to be
made. In the Triangle Business Journal, Lauren K. Ohnesorge, writes that
Bob Geolas, CEO of the Research Triangle Foundation said that the
announcement will be worth watching, and the Triangle Park Foundation has
made a statement saying that they would unveil a project that will be the
centerpiece of the Research Triangle Park's plans for an innovative future.

The Research Triangle's Facebook page suggests Monday's announcement is
'One of the biggest announcements in @TheRTP's history', and an
announcement onEventbrite waxes poetical:

Calling all makers, thinkers, doers and dreamers:
this one's for you, the never-disbelievers.
On February third, it's going to be a big day;
- please come on out, if you can find a way.

At 11:00, visit Research Triangle Park headquarters
Bring along your friends, bosses and co-workers.
There'll be cookies and coffee; hope and good cheer.
As we announce a surprise  make our plans clear.

Of course followers of the LENR story are likely to be interested in this
announcement because Industrial Heat LLC, who now own the rights to the
E-Cat, are based out of the Research Triangle in the Raleigh-Durham area of
North Carolina (although their exact whereabouts there is still
unidentified) -- however personally I am not convinced that this
announcement will be dealing with Industrial Heat or the E-Cat.

I have no special information about this event one way or another, but I
would have expected that if there was going to be a major announcement
regarding Industrial Heat and the E-Cat, it would take place after the
long-awaited third party report is published. However, I might be surprised
like I was when Industrial Heat put out its press release last week. I do
wonder why the Research Triangle Foundation would be hyping this event so
much. If it's not to do with a technology as revolutionary as the E-Cat,
what else could it be?

I guess we'll be watching and waiting on Monday.

The attendee's list:

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/calling-all-doers-and-dreamers-and-never-disbelievers-tickets-10452205829

gives no hint.  AAMoF, it looks rather mundane.  The strongest rumor
appears to have something to do with NASCAR.

The image on the laptop kinda resembles a racetrack.

Does Raleigh have a racetrack?

To me it looks like some sand with some rocky terrain in the background.

They say they will stream the announcement:

Here's an article on the RTP dream for a centerpiece.

I agree that a NASCAR racetrack will not compete with the Australian
opera house; but, it sounds more like a construction plan than a
technology announcement.

I asked them outright.  Of course they won't say.
