Excellent post! I wondered about Krivits behavior too. Some days ago I
wanted to post a comment on one of his articles, where he started to
repeat himself. I just wanted to show what I think of Rossi and his
behavior (just to give a little IMHO reasonable counter weight to his
article) and how all of this seems to work together. But my post was
censored. However I got an email from Krivit saying that he wants me to
retain my speculation because he doesn't want to add to the wild
speculation.
And then all those boring and repetitive recent articles... I mean, what
does the closing of the school, where Rossi got his degree, have to do
with LENR or Ecat? Yeah, of course I can see the connection, but it is
not really relevant (at least to me) and sounds more like another way of
simply wanting to bash Rossi (for whatever reason). And then currently
those articles about again the failure of Rossis reactor on June 30th...
Perhaps Krivit doesn't seem to have anything more what he can put up and
just sees his ship sinking right now..?

I just received another email alert from New Energy Times. The content
of the email states:

*Where Does the Energy Come From in LENR?*
I received a question from a /New Energy Times/ reader a few days ago:
"What exactly is causing the energy to be produced in the LENR
reaction according to the Widom-Larsen theory? Is it energy produced
due to the transmutation of elements, or something else entirely?"

I wish Mr. Krivit would just come out of the closet and state for the
record what kind of a relationship he has established with the
Widom-Larsen camp is. There is absolutely nothing wrong with
advocating for a particular group, cause, or theory. For example, the
Pure Energy Systems web site makes it very clear that they have
established a working business relationship with Andrea Rossi. PESN
states:
*Full Disclosure:*
PES Network has a business relationship with Andrea Rossi.
Readers can then take such "disclosures" into account when they read
information posted at such web sites. Often, the information posted,
slanted it may be, can still be high quality. There is also the
implication that such web sites may also have firsthand knowledge
pertaining to their favorite subject that may not necessarily be
available to the rest of the population or news sources. IOW, there
can be advantages to making it clear to readers that such web sites
have established themselves as an advocate outlet.
However, Krivit seems to be attempting to give readers the impression
that NET is an impartial news service. To that end I suspect there are
few within the Vort Collective that perceive NET as behaving as if
it's an impartial news service, particularly when it comes to "cold
fusion" news. Krivit has relentlessly promoted the Widom-Laren theory
above all other theories.
The fact that Krivit supports the Widom-Larsen theory doesn't bother
me. Why shouldn't the Widom-Larsen camp have a few supporters of their
own, advertising the theory's alleged advantages.
What bothers me is that apparently in order to enhance the perceived
credibility of the Widom-Larsen theory Krivit has felt the need to
attack the credentials of prominent CF researchers who are not in the
Widom-Larsen camp. Krivit has also attacked Andrea Rossi, claiming the
Italian inventor is a fraud. Some of the evidence Krivit recently
presented in regards to Rossi was incredibly shoddy, such as when
Krivit quoted verbatim a conversation he had with Rossi last year when
he personally visited him. Krivit quoted Rossi's halting English
speech patterns verbatim in an attempt to insinuate to gullible
readers that the Italian lacks clarity in his thinking processes. That
was an incredibly stupid thing for Krivit to have posted out on NET.
It really drove home to me what lengths Krivit was willing to go to in
order to find fault in those he perceives as the opposition, or
perhaps even as the enemy.
Meanwhile, Krivit has claimed that he would stop promoting the
widom-larsen theory if he learned of new information that would
suggest there is a better theory out there. However, based on the fact
that Krivit has refused to listen to advice from credible experts who
have serious reservations about the Widom-Larsen theory, and the fact
that Krivit was willing to perform incredibly cheap posting theatrics
to make others, like Rossi, look feeble minded, I don't believe
Krivit's sincerity one bit. Not one bit at all.
I just wish Krivit would simply come out of the closet state for the
record what is obvious to everyone else. It's blatantly obvious to
everyone that Krivit believes the Widom-Larsen theory is a really neat
theory. It's obvious that Krivit wants his readers to give the
Widom-Larsen folks more of their time and energy studying the theory's
alleged merits. I'm sure Krivit would probably get a lot of W-L
sympathizers willing to delve into its alleged advantages. I can live
with that. Why can't Krivit? Who is Krivit trying to fool?
