In any case, the flawed measurements were clear to the people from I.H., and they were clear to me as soon as I saw a sample of the calorimetry. > *. . . and what unsuitable measuring instruments were used- for a long > year for temperature, pressure, flow- seismometers, dynamometers, > microscopes?* > The choice of instruments used in the calorimetry were not suitable. "Seismometers, dynamometers, microscopes" are not used.

I cannot comment on the ERV, but the sample of calorimetry done by Rossi was clearly wrong. (Maybe it was done by Penon.) The methods, instruments and data were ridiculous. "Unsuitable" is putting it politely. I did not see calorimetry measurements by I.H. employees; I can only judge by the sample from Rossi. I am sure it was from Rossi because the numbers were the same ones he quoted in the Lewan interview. - Jed
