But you conveniently forget that Rossi wrote repeatedly in his blog that he had tested HUNDREDS of E-cats for long periods of time and that some were ALWAYS under long term test in his lab/factory. He was at that time preparing for the October 6 and October 28 tests. You expect us to believe he could not find ONE working machine to show to a potentially giant world-wide customer and to *** NASA ***? > That happens all the time to anyone who makes new things for a living.
