OK, maybe you are right about the precise phrase "did not pay", though I
feel I have read that phrase in this regard somewhere.

I think the issue stems from this thread:

I think there is a safety stability issue and there is a dispute over
the term 'stability'.  You know, like "It depends on what 'is' is."

Say, that appears to be the Aug 10, 2011, Angela Kemmler reference I just quoted. Not only that, I overlooked the phrase "did not pay" in the sentence: "Just saw this citation on a swedish website, it may help to explain why Defkalion did not pay EFA srl (Rossis wife), and Rossi was upset", which Angela Kemmler wrote. So, it is not merely my memory that is going with age ... it is my competence as well.

A failure to demonstrate the "... full working stability of the reactor" strikes me as clearly a technological issue. However, this is in direct conflict with Rossi's statement that "... the issue is just financial, not personal, nor technological, nor scientific."

I see that according to the following reference "Defkalion denies this text originated from them, but they do not specifically deny its contents.":

I also see there was more speculative information, as well as direct quotes of Rossi, referenced by Akira Shirakawa:

Therein is a quote of Rossi: "The problem emerged when, after we waited until the maximum possible term, we demanded that the financial duties be respected. At that point it emerged that the financial resources were not enough to go on. This is the sole real problem."

The original Rossi text for that can be found at:

It is not clear what "financial duties" means. It is reasonable to infer that it has to do with a payment, but it could also mean failure to create an escrow or to provide a suitable financial report, etc. The statement "Defkalion did not pay EFA srl (Rossis wife)...", noted above, seems to be based on more specific information than Rossi himself provides in the above references.

I guess I am merely reviewing information with which others are most familiar. I have been unable to read posts for a number of weeks, so am catching up here.

Best regards,
