A lot of intelligent people at wavewatching.... and elsewhere, don't seem to be impressed with the experimental evidence. Since nothing much has been accomplished since 1989, my guess is they are right to be unimpressed. Nobody has been able to shoot this latest test down, as far as I can tell, but so what? If the test that has been done was to compare the efficiency of a couple of coffee makers, I would be happy to accept the results if I thought the testers were competent and disinterested. But lenr is a lot more unlikely to be true from what I read, and there is a lot more at stake with it, so I am not going to believe that the announced results of this test are correct no matter how good a job the testers seem to have done. It is going take several successful tests by different groups of people before I stop thinking Rossi is probably a crook or is deluded.
