Here's the conclusion of Gibb's blog post:
So, as with the other E-Cat tests, we’re really not much better off than we were prior to the 28th. We’ve got reports that sound exciting but there’s still no real evidence. That’s not to say some data doesn’t exist but until a verifiably objective analysis is conducted by an independent third party that confirms the results match the claims there’s no real news, which is utterly disappointing.

Nonsense second point. Madoff certainly had to know that someday his scamming would catch up with him, yet he did it anyway. Rossi is no different.

It must work; people are already stealing fuel for them.

State police have arrested three men in connection with the theft of more than 17,000 pounds of nickel

it is one thing to *believe* something is false based on your assumptions and quite another to be able to *prove* beyond a reasonable doubt that it is false

The scientific method cannot be used to prove falsity beyond a reasonable doubt, as any scientist knows.

The question regarding the supposed generation of energy in excess of input with this device is not "is it false?" but rather "is it reproducible?"

Since there is no effort on the part of Mr. Rossi to subject his claims to reproduction, who the hell knows what it means?

It works. Traditional scientists will be the last to acknowledge for 3 reasons:

1. They don’t understand it so their ego prevents them from having an open mind.

2. It’s not what they teach.

3. They are on the green energy tit and need the research money.
