The more I think about this, the harder it seems. With most cold fusion samples (cathodes or powder), the heat comes and goes from one spot to another, very quickly. The spots are randomly distributed through the sample. See, for example, Pam Boss's IR camera movie: http://lenr-canr.org/Collections/SzpakIR.rm I do not see how the pattern of heat spots in Piantelli's rod would travel through the walls of the calorimeter to be detected on the surface. The heat would blur out all over the surface. Even if the heat persisted in some spots, it seems unlikely you could detect them from the surface. Am I missing something here? - Jed
