Well, I hope he really is a futurist and not a blowhard. As I see it, if he responds, that makes him a kindred spirit, but if he does not, he is no futurist in my book. At this point, LENR-CANR is the gold standard for CF information. Anyone seriously interested in the subject will read it. Not because of me, but because hundreds of authors have contributed papers. We have over 400 papers on file. It is like having a shelf full of conference proceedings available in an instant anywhere on earth. (The Internet is astounding, isn't it? We are the last generation to appreciate it, and not take it for granted.) Perhaps if we had had that back in 1990, the debate would not have gone astray. I am now so confident CF is real, I regard it as a litmus test. How can you tell a real scientist from a dodo with a PhD? Show him the experimental data. Show him a couple dozen good papers. If he agrees CF is real he is a sheep and if he doesn't he's a goat. - Jed
