Re: [Vo]:Whopper of the Week

When you say that "Cold Fusion at 300C would be fine for automobiles ...", you have to take into account the fact that the 300C is the loaded temperature of the system. In RF technology, it is commonly known that to get maximum transfer of power from a real source having a real source impedance (i

Re: [Vo]:Whopper of the Week

Re the jet engine claim, if Rossi is seeing prompt charged particles, this could have led him to speculate about the possibility of a jet engine. If the Papp engine was real, it is not difficult to imagine that it was powered by having prompt charged particles (e.g., alpha particles) momentarily i

Re: [Vo]:Whopper of the Week

Jones, You are wrong and libelous in saying Rossi was convicted of fraud. He was convicted of tax evasion. Considering how his feedstock was retroactively classified as hazardous, of course he was in financial distress. Will you admit you were TOTALLY wrong and apologize to those you have

Bob Cook, There is no doubt about the meaning when the title of the post is Whopper of the Week. I wish Vortex didn't shuffle the order of the posts. My post about the third one originally.

Re: [Vo]:Whopper of the Week

Jones, I agree about your statement about supporting LENR. I do think that just now Rossi is the best shoot we have. Worship is not involved. Neither does an opinion (or lack thereof) imply anything about the quality of others in this group or outside. I do disagree that LENR will will be regarded

Re: [Vo]:Whopper of the Week

-Jed, You said ; ​'​ It is implausible at this stage because jet engines require extremely high temperatures and power density ​' ​ I might have missed something but I thought LENR has high energy density. How to get high pressure is an engineering issue if I understand right. I take Rossi's state

Definition of “whopper” 1. something unusually large or otherwise extreme of its kind 2. an extravagant or monstrous lie. Which one applies here? Let me make one thing clear. LENR (the field of inquiry) is … or should be what we seek to support – not a controversial inventor

I think those claims are what we have been waiting for. (some of you guys actively for 25 years). It cannot be right to say it is not serious. I agree that there is no proof before it is in the market or scientifically explained / tested. However, you must not disbelieve a final and good outcome. I
