As of 18:00 the Claytor count stands at 823. 56 in the last hour. The
reaction is decaying, you might say. I wish it would ramp up
exponentially. I assume this has not happened because every group
that has discovered LENR-CANR in this fashion (or a single paper in
the collection) has had a limited set of members and no strong method
of communicating with a larger universe of members.
In other words, there is some group of people out there discussing
this, and recommending that people search for "tritium input."
Evidently, this group has roughly 800 members who are interested in
cold fusion. Some others may come along this evening and tomorrow but
I expect the totals will soon fall to zero -- or to background
levels, perhaps with new members reading the archives from time to time.
There are various ways of communicating with a larger universe of
Internet readers, such as StumbleUpon, Digg and Fark. They reach a
far bigger audience than most discussion groups.
Wikipedia is another method. LENR-CANR and New Energy Times have been
censored out of Wikipedia by anti-cold fusion fanatics. But the links
there did not generate all that much traffic anyway, so this is no
big deal. Anyone seriously interested in the topic will find us. I
would just as soon not be found by someone who begins and ends a
search at Wikipedia.
