I think it is difficult to think that Rossi was not aware of what was written on the Defkalion's forums by the their staff:
- They have build working systems -- kilowatt scale and megawatt scale. - Their design for the reactor is different than yours, but is fully functional. - They never obtained an output of less than nineteen times the input, with their reactors. - As of a month ago they were in the middle of pilot production of their Hyperion systems. - These systems have underwent tests by the Greek government the first ten days of July. - At peak, they have tested one thousand Hyperion kernels at one time, producing a large amount of heat they share with a nearby police academy. (The list was summarized here http://pesn.com/2011/08/08/9501888_Betrayal_Catalyzed--An_Open_Letter_To_Andrea_Rossi/ ) I think it is more likely that Rossi is lying right now than Defkalion.
