Not enough information was revealed. I said so at the time it was being done, and I have not changed my mind.
Gene Mallove used to test various devices, and he attended demonstrations, as did I. Some of them proved nothing. I think the Hydrodynamics gadget is probably real but I attended some tests where they made large mistakes, proving absolutely nothing. At one point they had the thermocouples set for the wrong type (K-type or whatever it was). The temperature readings were meaningless. People make honest mistakes. When they do large-scale experiments they sometimes make large-scale honest mistakes. - Jed
