This issue was raised on the Moletrap forum:   why should any inventor with
a dramatic and valid new technology as useful as Rossi and Defkalion claim
care about what an anonymous poster or two on the internet say about them?
Why do they even bother with all the trivial garbage they post and all the
idiotic questions they respond to on their forums and blogs?   They really
have that much extra time?   And they can't be bothered to give unequivocal
proof that they have what they say?  I think this is unlikely.

No, that is not even a little bit likely. That is not what they said
happened. That is not what Rossi said happened, back in June. I know
several people who have been to Defkalion (including the 3 I heard from
lately), and that is not what they saw.

That is another James Bond movie scenario. An absurd fantasy.

I will grant, Rossi has been saying that is what happened, but when he says
things like this, he is talking all out his head (lying). He is
contradicting what he said before. You, of all people, should know better
than to believe him.

I agree that the above scenario is not likely but it is not what skeptics
propose so it's a straw man.  What *is* likely is that Defkalion believed
that they were going to receive a working core module from Rossi in June
2011.   It is also likely that they prepared equipment and labs based on
what they thought this core would be like according to specifications given
to them by Rossi.   I think that the only thing they ever built was a
simulation of their anticipated final product.  And the core was and still
is missing.   Either that or they are simply lying about a large and
expensive laboratory of their own and a large staff of genuine experts.
After all who has seen or talked to this large group of people?

I don't know how you know or think you know how much Defkalion spent and
what they built but be that as it may, it is an agreed on fact that they
did not get a core from Rossi.   When they didn't get the working core from
Rossi, perhaps they decided to try to develop it because they believed
Rossi had the technology, the technology was possible and they could
develop it anew.   That is essentially what they claim (on their web site
forum) happened.   My guess is that they have been unable to get anything
to work and that this is the reason they have never shown a test in public
or given a unit to anyone or any government agency to test.

There is nothing crazy about doubting Rossi and Defkalion.  Believing that
they have what they say, are actively marketing it, but won't let anyone
test it independently -- that's pretty crazy.   And to think Rossi sold
1300 modules to some mystery client for an unspecified and unguessable
purpose defies the imagination.

Add to that a scenario in which Defkalion has set up a large, expensive

doing research. The whole notion is so implausible I can't imagine why

Titanic step forward? Better is gigantic management strategy blunder!
To use mild euphemisms- this plan is naive, childish, primitive savage
capitalistic thinking and self-destructive strategy.
To use dumping on an endless, insatiable market- you cannot succeed even
with a hundred million E-cats.
And to kill (!) the competition is as counter-productive as impossible.
It is very surprising that Rossi accepts now that the competition exists.
This plan is similar with thinking in the '70s that the Trabant car can
eliminate all the other cars

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trabant
 or now that the Tata Nano car http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tata_Nano
can conquer the world market.
Selling price is just one factor of many...
This is a fantastic plan, in the worst sense of this adjective.

   Dear Gherardo:
   The price will be enough low to forbid any competition. At that
   point the reverse engineering will be a hobby, not a source of
   competition, so that everything will become easier. This is the
   battle we won during these days: we made a titanic step forward,
   derived from a lucky idea and from the huge possibilities our new
   Partners have opened to us. The price will be much lower than you
   said, but we will declare the price when we will be ready: remember,
   if I say one thing, I have to do it. Anyway: the first version will
   produce hot water and heating, but it will be able to be retrofitted
   with the electric power generation when we will be ready also with it.
   Warm Regards,
   A.R.

   Dear Andrea,

   You mention the need to produce 1 million e-cats immediately in
   order to meet your goals. This is certainly ambitious, but it would
   be very exciting for you to be able to do this.

   1. Do you have the production infrastructure (including outsourcing)
   to build this many plants?
   2. Are you process enough nickel powder to fuel this many e-cats?

   Wishing you the very best for 2012!
