Sorry, that second paragraph should also be italicized as part of the quote.

Here is a link to a listing of articles on this subject, for those new to it:

This device, if it pans out, destroys the Middle East as a meaningful part of the world.

I found an article "Special report: cold fusion is neither", which discusses a theory behind what's really happening in the e-cat, in case anybody's interested. In a nutshell, the theory is that a sufficiently intense electromagnetic field can cause a reverse beta decay (electron merging with proton to form neutron), with the resulting neutron having sufficiently low momentum to be readily absorbed by a nickel nucleus, forming an unstable isotope which decays into copper.

BTW, in your ping list, "papabear" is a user created in 2000 with no posts. I'm PapaBear3625.

Thanks for the ping! Keep me on the list. please.

Naturally Rossi is getting criticism for this tech and some of his dealings in the past when he fell afoul of Italian law.

I like his approach here: “The mud doesn’t worry me, we will start the delivery of our plants this year and the market will be the sole judge.”

When Peter Hagelstein of MIT expressed a desire to test the E-Cat, Rossi responded,

“I thank anyway Prof. Peter Hagelstein for his attention. If the MIT is interested to our product, they can buy a plant, and make all the validations they want, for themselves, and get from it good heating too, during the hard Bostonian winters ( I lived there for some year, mamma mia, che freddo!)”
