There are not one, but many methods suggested to produce what Rossi observed without nuclear reactions, and all of them are more plausible than Rossi's claimed explanation, and all are falsifiable by a long self-sustained run. The best one is courtesy of the Max Planck Institute paper, cited here yesterday, that shows that reversible metal hydride reactions can be used to store close to a MJ/kg at about 450C. The only thing that is not falsifiable is your absolute conviction that Rossi is right. I wonder if you will continue to insist daily that the Oct 6 demo is irrefutable if there are no ecats warming your (or anyone else's) house or factory, or powering any cars, or even heard of by the man in the street, in 5 years time. We will simply have to be patient to find out. > Claims that you can fake it with some stage magic trick that some person > somewhere might know are not valid, in my opinion. > > - Jed > >
