My reading of the rejection was that LENR was impossible because of the
Coulomb barrier.
It is not clear to me that Rossi's patent as it stands is of much use.
He leaves out the critical bits about what makes it work at low
temperature and with the COP he claims. You might argue that he was
correct in doing so if the patent was going to be rejected. If he feels
he really needs it one would suppose he could invite the patent examiner
down to see the 1 MW plant in action.
