That is my impression. I have implored him to put this project aside and demonstrate smaller units. I have lined up people from important places who have large sums of money burning a hole in their pockets, who say they would be convinced by a kilowatt scale demonstration. I told Rossi I have these people on the line. He said he was not interested. As we saw here, Rossi now says he has another customer who wants to see the megawatt reactor, and this customer is in charge of the October 28 test. I do not know how or why this one megawatt reactor project was designated a milestone in the Defkalion contract. If the contract is now void as Rossi claims I cannot imagine why he continues to work on the megawatt reactor. It makes no sense. It seems odd to that he is found yet another customer who demands a megawatt reactor. Why isn't this customer satisfied with 10 kW, as my wealthy friends would be? It is a remarkable coincidence that Rossi has twice found a potential investor with an idee fixe that only a 1 MW reactor is sufficient proof of the claim. I suspect that this idee fixe is Rossi's, and his alone. I even suspect that Rossi himself is in charge of the October 28 test, and this other customer he describes may possibly be a figment of his imagination. - Jed
