Jojo, rest assured that I deplore pathoskeptizism as much as You do.
But this does not make me change flags and join the other side. This is just like in a war. if You recognize that your party is wrong, You have two options: a) change sides b) be a pacifist Pathoskeptics firmly belong to the (a)-camp. I myself am trying to be in the (b)-camp ofcourse, which means: be skeptical wrt BOTH sides. Thhis metaphor has its weaknesses, and I do not want to overstretch it. This would be silly in its own right. Sitting in between, repeating myself ad nauseam, I must say that on the one hand LENR is REAL, on the other hand Rossi/DGT probably overbid their hand, in poker-speech. In other words: They CLAIM to have an elephant, which is more probably than not a midge, or a sparrow, with lots of fleas and lice and other parasites. Did You ever have a sparrow in your hands? I did. You would be surprised! Rossi, the sparrow does a good job of concealing his hand, in poker speech. And endlessly promises. Bids up his hand to 600degC, knowing that 1000degC would give him a good laugh, even from the most friendly of his friends. What I tried to do, is argue, that 600degC is already an overstretch of the poker-hand from both sides: Rossi AND DGT. Maybe I am wrong. Actually I hope so, because the planet would be safe for another couple of hundred years, and could heal from human folly.

This of course is the sad state of attitude prevailing in modern science nowadays. Jojo
