Admittedly, I could be naive on this point but I find myself still willing to accept the premise that Rossi's eCats probably produce a fair amount excess heat... probably well beyond what's being fed into them. What I remain less certain about, however, is just how much and how stable the generated heat might be. It would not surprise me if Rossi is concerned about the stability of his eCats as well. The apparent fact that he kept changing the size of his eCats WELL after the initial January demo suggests to me that Rossi may still be performing a lot more R&D work that we might assume is the case, as compared to finalizing the engineering specs for the scheduled October dog & pony show. Alas, we speculate... we worry. Worry produces excessive thinking of the speculative kind. Fertile speculation produces more worry, and on and on it goes. I'm reminded of a famous phrase from a popular song: "Don't worry, be happy." The song made that artist a ton of money. ;-) Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
