Several days before this test, I sent Rossi a short list of suggestions. For example, I said that all data should be recorded on a single computer with time stamped records. I said that the outlet water from the heat exchanger should be made available to observers so they could independently test the temperature with their own equipment. It would have taken an hour or two to implement these changes. My suggestions would have answered *every one of the objections* that has been raised against this test so far. Every single one." I am not saying that I described a perfect test. There can be no such thing. I did anticipate all the major problems. So did several other people here. More to the point, it would have been easy to fix these problems. It would have taken no more effort to set this test up correctly than it did to set it up wrong. For the record, Rossi vehemently disagrees with me. - Jed
