I guess you meant didn't. So what, I would take the cell to my hotel room nearby, disassemble it, fix the wire or whatever has broken, and come back. Or I would have a replacement cell handy if I was lucky enough to have two working cells. > Also, why would you want to preserve secrets? > Just file for a patent and you are covered. I might have secrets to preserve, e.g. before I file a patent. My point is that one can have one's CF cell's excess heat certified without revealing any secrets. So why hasn't this be done in 21 years? Am I the only one to think that failure to do so, i.e. failure to make reality of cold fusion indisputable, seriously harms the researcher himself, the field at large, and mankind at large? Michel
