And when SRI does this, it puts itself outside the scientific method
of rigorous interpersonal replication.
SRI and Godes are presently engaged in commercial R&D, not rigorous
fundamental scientific research. The rules are different.
It is of no help to produce youtube videos which show this or that.
SRI has not made YouTube videos as far as I know.
The LENR-field has yet to prove its adherence to the scientific
method . . .
This is nonsense. Hundreds of peer-reviewed papers have been published
describing the experiments, materials and techniques in detail. Any
expert who has funding and time can reproduce the effect. It is no more
difficult than cloning mammals or doing open heart surgery. In other
words, it takes skill but it has been widely replicated.
To discard this, or mix up categorials -as I am afraid Jed does- is
dangerous!
This has nothing to do with me. I am not in charge of policy at the U.S.
Patent Office. They are the source of the problem. The purpose of a
patent is to promote progress in technology by sharing information while
protecting intellectual property. If the P.O. would do their job,
information on cold fusion would spread as quickly as it does with any
other commercial R&D.
