On what basis? Do you know anything about their calorimetry? With the right kind of calorimeter, researchers can measure 0.01 W with confidence. Rob Duncan knows how to measure picowatts (10E-12 W). Unless you know a great deal about their equipment, you are presumptuous to reject their claim out of hand. The people at MFM are doing a good job, but their equipment is not expensive or high precision. - Jed
