I like Jones' analysis. It covers most of it. I further think that if Rossi does not have a working LENR at least he believes he has one as there is no way he has completely fooled all investors involved just sweet talking. I understand he has made less smart business in the field of garbage and energy. Well, such things happens. It does not mean he is a bad entrepreneur. We had a discussion, about how pity it is, that the US government does not make funds available for LENR, a few weeks ago. Maybe Rossi' scientific background and his success record is questionable , maybe Mills' theories are questionable as well as his long string of optimistic predictions, but they both are raising money and seems to work with a clear direction. Although I understand that critic is required now and then I find it hard to not respect their entrepreneurship. It is hard to get a project funded. Do not think for a moment that private money is easier to obtain than government grants. It is different but not easier. I think it is time to search for the cheapest way to get result and start a business with better funding.:) Five years from now the fight about market share will commence.
