[...] I’ve noticed that naysayers who talk the loudest all scurry away when the time comes for them to put their money where their mouth is.

I've often wondered how a skeptic might "put his money where his mouth is". It would be an easy way to make money, if a mechansim were available.

Personal bet? Transaction costs too high, market too thin, chances of welshing significant.

Pure stock play? I've never heard of a stock in any of these technologies that was publicly traded and thus could be sold short. Even then, as with all short selling, there's the matter of timing.

Index fund? There, you could bet against the technology regardless of there being no actual investment to bet for or against.

Does an index exist for the E-cat?

But I will take your money.
