Hot fusion is making money, it’s called nuclear power.

You’ve had that intrade bet on for over a year. If anybody actually took the bet you’ve already lost it once.

I will not do intrade, I know you worship it but I think it’s stupid. I’ll lay the bet in person, but understand if we meet in person the first thing I have to do is deck you for being a rude insulting punk in this thread. Sorry I believe in the John Wayne rules, and in every movie he ever made he’d have punched you by now; the good news is I believe in the John Wayne rules after decking you we could then move on with life.

Kuhn’s all social science. Cold fusion is physical science. No intrade bet will change physics.

The only person on this thread whining is the guy that thinks intrade matters. Mostly whining because nobody will take his bet.

Intrade’s usefulness for predicting elections is the same as any other poll. Because elections are polls, they’re just polls that count. BUT let’s keep in mind also that at many times during the course of the election intrade was dead wrong, Fred Thompson traded very highly on intrade for quite a while. Like all other polls the closer it gets to the actual election the likelier it is to be right.

I’m not going to bet on intrade, and all your bovine excrement isn’t going to make me. Heck at this point I wouldn’t make the bet just because of how clearly it irritates you.

It’s not a nonsequitor at all. You’re jumping up and down here demanding people put their money where their mouth is, I told you way you SHOULD do that which would actually be worthy of respect (work for one of the companies), and then I told you I’ve followed one of the methods (working for a startup I believe in). Not a nonsequitor at all. If you believe in cold fusion so much, if you REALLY want to put your money where your mouth is, make it your job.

No equivocation at all. I will not intrade, I will not intrade over cold fusion, I will not intrade over elections, I will not intrade for sports, I will not intrade green eggs and ham. I WILL NOT INTRADE. No equivocation, there is nothing in the world that will ever make me put 1 dime on intrade. EVER.

I already did point out ways for you to make money on it: invest, join a company working on it. You fled from those idea and demanding intrade bets.

Punching you out wouldn’t be about science. Punching you out would be how everyone that calls somebody else a wuss, ESPECIALLY people that do it from behind the safety of a keyboard, should be treated. Everybody that’s ever called anybody a wuss is a jerk, and all jerks should get popped. Again, John Wayne rules.

You’ve had that intrade bet on for over a year.
***Wrong. If your reading comprehension and science skills are this bad, you have had no business harrassing cold fusioneers for 20 years.

If anybody actually took the bet you’ve already lost it once.
***That was the prior contract, Einstein.

I will not do intrade, I know you worship it but I think it’s stupid.
***I worship Jesus Christ. I like Intrade because it helps me to see the purity of someone’s position. Your position is not backed up by action, and the more I engage in discussion with you, the less scientific you seem to be. You have no business being on cold fusion threads.

I’ll lay the bet in person, but understand if we meet in person the first thing I have to do is deck you for being a rude insulting punk in this thread.
***You’re just backing away. You can take my money from your keyboard and you don’t wanna do it because you know that your position is untenable. Yet that doesn’t stop you from doing the dance & turning yourself into a pretzel. Since you can’t deck me from your keyboard, you oughtta take the opportunity to steal my money to teach me a lesson. But you won’t do that because your mouth is so much bigger than anything else you own.

Sorry I believe in the John Wayne rules, and in every movie he ever made he’d have punched you by now; the good news is I believe in the John Wayne rules after decking you we could then move on with life.
***I’d like ta see ya try that, pilgrim.

Kuhn’s all social science. Cold fusion is physical science. No intrade bet will change physics.
***But a good writing class could change your ability to express ideas that make sense.

The only person on this thread whining is the guy that thinks intrade matters. Mostly whining because nobody will take his bet.
***If nobody takes the bet, it proves my point. Cold fusion is on its way to being real and you sniveling coward whiners can’t do anything about it.

Intrade’s usefulness for predicting elections is the same as any other poll.
***Intrade is not “any other poll”, it isn’t even a poll. If you punch as well as you comprehend, I’ll have no trouble dispatching you.

Because elections are polls, they’re just polls that count. BUT let’s keep in mind also that at many times during the course of the election intrade was dead wrong, Fred Thompson traded very highly on intrade for quite a while.
***I’d be delighted to talk about Intrade’s results with respect to Fred Thompson. As a matter of fact it was Intrade results that I relied on to show that his campaign was faltering,well before any poll results showed it, and it was the ONLY time I’ve ever been given a timeout from FR.

Like all other polls the closer it gets to the actual election the likelier it is to be right.
***You really don’t know what you’re talking about. No wonder you don’t wanna put your money down. If I were you, I’d be afraid to do so as well.

I’m not going to bet on intrade, and all your bovine excrement isn’t going to make me.
***It doesn’t seem to stop you from spreading your excrement without backing it up with money.

Heck at this point I wouldn’t make the bet just because of how clearly it irritates you.
***And yet, the dollar value of the contract as an indicator is unchanged. It means something, like you said earlier. No matter how irritated I am nor how irritated I can get wussy cold-fusion naysayer harrassers, at the end of the day it’s about whether they put their money where their mouth is or if they scurry back into their hovels and hide.

It’s not a nonsequitor at all. You’re jumping up and down here demanding people put their money where their mouth is, I told you way you SHOULD do that
***I am. And you are not. That speaks volumes right there.

which would actually be worthy of respect (work for one of the companies),
***I’m more than happy to, and will continue to look for opportunities where they might exist. In the meantime, this opportunity to put my money where my mouth is in support of cold fusion and to show the cyberworld how cowardly the naysayers such as yourself are, well, it’s just something I can’t pass up.

and then I told you I’ve followed one of the methods (working for a startup I believe in).
***Then you’re an elitist. Startups only higher very well educated engineers & PhDs & that kind of thing. If someone doesn’t have that level of capability, they are barred from contributing in such a manner. But voila!, look at Intrade, they welcome anyone and they won’t check to see if you have a PhD to trade contracts.

Not a nonsequitor at all. If you believe in cold fusion so much, if you REALLY want to put your money where your mouth is, make it your job.
***I do, I am, I wish I could, and it’s plain to see that you’re just a whiner bandwagon-jumper who can’t argue his way out of a paper bag and doesn’t back up what he says with action. Your words are worthless, not only because they are so poorly expressed, but they are backed up by nothing.

No equivocation at all. I will not intrade, I will not intrade over cold fusion, I will not intrade over elections, I will not intrade for sports, I will not intrade green eggs and ham. I WILL NOT INTRADE.
***But you do bar trades, yeah right. You’re totally full of it.

No equivocation, there is nothing in the world that will ever make me put 1 dime on intrade. EVER.
***That’s because it would require you to back up what you say with your wallet, to put your money where your mouth is and you’ve had a good 20 years of harrassing for free. Now we can all see just how much courage you really had for all those years: zero.

I already did point out ways for you to make money on it: invest, join a company working on it. You fled from those idea and demanding intrade bets.
***I did not flee from the idea.

Punching you out wouldn’t be about science. Punching you out would be how everyone that calls somebody else a wuss, ESPECIALLY people that do it from behind the safety of a keyboard, should be treated.
***And look how you’ve treated cold fusioneers for 20 years. You deserve exactly what you have in mind for keyboard commandos.

Everybody that’s ever called anybody a wuss is a jerk, and all jerks should get popped. Again, John Wayne rules.
***John Wayne wouldn’t have any trouble putting his money where his mouth is, and he wouldn’t have any truck with someone who did. He would look at guys like you sideways. But go ahead with yer John Wayne fantasies, they’re worth about as much as your writing.
