Fair enough Mary Yugo. But surely someone else in this forum is willing to bet $200 that will go to charity, on the E-Cat not working. Anyone?? Or has the E-Cat already been accepted by the wide majority already? :) Regards, Patrick On Tue, Nov 29, 2011 at 6:14 PM, Mary Yugo

Good idea but you need tighter and way more specific criteria for how the bet can be won or lost. Widely accepted is sort of vague and loose. How about: - said to have been properly tested and said to work by fusion or LENR as advertised and with the net energy quotient quoted by Rossi (6:1 or

Mary Yugo is correct. The term widely accepted to produce a COP of 6 could mean anything depending on the observer and testing methodology. By many accounts in this forum, many of whom are textually prolific, it is already widely accepted. On Mon, Nov 28, 2011 at 6:30 PM, Patrick Ellul

Let me think about. They'd have to be verifiable as unrelated to Rossi and unconnected in any way other than as a client. Rossi probably has 5 companies and he can make any claims through them as he wants to -- for example Leonardo and Ampenergo so I don't think so. If this thing is real, it
