Congratulations
on getting "them" to consider a demo when I could not solicit a response. I
asked around and I know of no one except
perhaps Celani that might be in a position to do a demo at a remote venue like
ICCF by July. It is too late in the game
now to get a system prepared and vetted before the meeting.
As you were
so quick to point out, I am writing challenged and prefer to do experiments. I
should probably stay away from writing so it will not distract from the field.
The deadlines for abstracts are this weekend,
so I will not be presenting or likely even going this year. I wish you the
best in your demo. Can you tell us what it will be?Demos- the
last I heard is that at first a “contest” of sorts (“cabbie” contest) was to be
tried, but it was postponed to some future date (25th anniversary???)
and will involve someone like NI for instrumentation and the larger players.
Right now I
am struggling to learn how to use “lost wax” casting of Pd +23%Ag alloys for
making a toroid. The geometry is similar
to that from my poster presentation in Boston. I will likely melt down all my
"scrap" Pd that has accumulated over the years. Only the active region will
contain the Pd alloy the rest will be Ag. I am working on a “solid
state tokamak” configuration to induce electro-migration around a ring. It is
consuming a lot of my “extra” time. After
all this is just a “hobby” not my real job. The toroid will be
electrochemically loaded
and a “random” frequency current around the ring will be induced like a
secondary of a transformer (1/f source to primary).

deserves to be presented more fully, in more detail, in professionally written
papers.
You have helped many others. That is why you need to keep helping them.
Have not come to the podium??? I thought I was the opening keynote talk at
ICCF-14 . . .You need to come to the podium once more. Literally at ICCF18, and
figuratively at LENR-CANR.org. As I said, science is not science until it is
shared. It resembles sex in that regard. One might say, you need to come again.
ICCF-17….. I asked Duncan several times last year about
presenting a revealing demo and got no reply.Ah. Well, contact him again. We
have a disconnect here, probably because he is busy. I have been discussing
this with Duncan, Melich and others. Please send them and me a description of
what you propose to demonstrate. We might have more than one demonstration,
which would be great.
I am the one pushing this idea most strongly at present. I could use your
backing.
They seem more interested in business support like NI.That is incorrect.
You offer an interesting hypothesis as to how cold
fusion/LENR could be accepted. However,
can you point to any example in 24 years where your hypothesis has led to your
assumed acceptance?Funding for the Sidney Kimmel Institute for Nuclear
Renaissance (SKINR) came about as a direct result of the CBS "60 Minutes"
segment. That segment was a direct result of efforts by various people,
including me, to promote cold fusion in the mass media. The field would be dead
without this institute.
My role has been to package up technical papers in a more professional
presentation, and to make them readily available. "Packaging," as I call it, is
more important than you appreciate. Your papers have sometimes been sloppy,
with spelling errors and so on. This detracts from credibility more than you
realize. People should not judge papers by the quality of the editing and
formatting, but they do.
