Dick Smith Reply February 25, 2012 at 12:19 pm Rather than come up with a minimum COP I would prefer that the organization making the statement work that out themselves. For example I am positive that before respected organizations such as NASA or ANSTO. ( Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation) would agree that a practical 1KW LENR unit existed they themselves would ensure that there testing parameters and controls were impeccable . This is because their very credibility depends on their published record of scientific accuracy. Yes individual eccentric people working for one of these organizations may make claims from time to time that are not supported by the whole organization -,that’s ok and healthy, but it’s not what I am looking for. I would be happy to develop a formal statement which lists the organizations that would be acceptable. I would imagine all government organizations similar to NASA and ANSTO in countries with world accepted scientific credibility would also be acceptable. And by “practical” I mean a unit which can do something worthwhile with the 1 KW output at an affordable cost ie- similar to the claims of Rossi and Defkalion. Is this a fair requirement? If not I will remove it. Dick Smith Reply February 25, 2012 at 12:32 pm Gregory. Are you serious? You reckon I rejected the Rossi ” sale offer ” for no good reason. I gave a very good reason. That was that I do not believe such an operating unit actually exists and the purchase offer was just a delaying tactic while more agencies are sold. My present offer is public. If a claimant can get the required recognition from an agreed reputable body and I do not pay they can sue me and they will undoubtedly win. Dick Smith Reply February 25, 2012 at 12:56 pm Yes I would be happy to accept non-nuclear type organizations as long as they have credibility with the majority of reasonable people in the world scientific community. I can see a large list of suitable organizations. - - - - - - - It's not clear if a "black box" test is acceptable. Otherwise, I don't see why he objected to Defkalion's offer.
