While following the Aussie Guy thread at http://peakoil.com/forums/the-cold-fusion-thread-pt-4-merged-t63982-195.html#p109 I found an update on the Dick Smith story: Last week, Mr Smith sent aerospace engineer Ian Bryce to attend a public meeting held by Mr Millin at Mullumbimby. Mr Bryce said the claimed technology was not supported with any confidence. He said both he and Mr Smith had sought to examine the alleged technology because at least six scientists had observed or studied its results and had been encouraged. However, further inspection had revealed major problems with that data, Mr Bryce said - - - - - SO: Bryce wasn't sent to Italy, but to the Mullumbimby meeting.

It's pretty clear that Mr. Bryce didn't do his homework... at all! Woefully ignorant of anything about LENR/CF and the E-Cat demos. That's what he gets for not reading vortex-l! :-) Mr. Smith, I know several highly qualified techies who will be happy to give you a proper assessment... -m -Original Message- From: Alan J Fletcher [mailto:a...@well.com] Sent: Friday, January 20, 2012 4:15 PM To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: Re: [Vo]:Rossi fails to call Dick Smith At 04:05 PM 1/20/2012, Alan J Fletcher wrote: And later on : http://peakoil.com/forums/the-cold-fusion-thread-pt-4-merged-t63982-240.html #p1100188 Mystery blue box sank 'cold fusion' for Dick Smith BY: ANTHONY KLAN From: The Australian January 20, 2012 12:00AM .

Re: [Vo]:Rossi fails to call Dick Smith
The entrepreneur Dick Smith had offered to invest $200,000 if the physics was proven. He sent along a consulting aerospace engineer and sceptic, Ian Bryce, to assess the machine. This is the second time they wrote that and it's confusing. Did Bryce go to Italy? Or just to their town meeting or what?
Re: [Vo]:Rossi fails to call Dick Smith
Mr Millin told The Sun-Herald : ''I thought it was better if Dr Rossi rang us. He is a very important man and a very busy man and I didn't want to keep him waiting.'' But they had their wires crossed, their timing out of sync. Each was expecting the other to call. ''I didn't bother to blame him and he didn't bother to blame me,'' Mr Millin said. (Google transalte will have fun with this one, since it translates Rossi as Smith. ) - Original Message - http://www.smh.com.au/environment/energy-smart/more-fizzer-than-fusion-so-dicks-not-energised-20120114-1q0fv.html What a screw up! - Jed
