I didn’t see any endorsement of Rossi’s e-cat there. What was said is that more energy was produced than consumed by the e-cat. A high school physics teacher would question such a statement.
But there seems to be a real lack of curiosity or questions from these seven scientists about what was hidden from them and why, scientists who suffer from their own bias and prejudice as do the rest of us.

Would you feel better if I waved some degrees around? Or opened my checkbook like these Swedish industrialists?

With the verification of thses seven scientists are other scientists going to accept their observations without questions?

We'll never know. This "report" will never be published in a journal. The co-authors have no intention of presenting it at a cold fusion friendly conference coming up, either.

The whole purpose is to get the report plastered all over the Internet, mostly blogs, so Rossi can con people into buying distribution rights to a product that will never exist.

***Lots of things have more energy in than out. Like a gasoline motor. A high school physics teacher would know that, and would know that this isn’t the significance of what’s being claimed. The significance is that the energy density is 10,000 higher than gasoline.

***There is tremendous curiosity. And what was hidden was the industrial secret so that it remains protected.

***2 of those scientists were on SKeptics Societies and were very doubtful before they began testing Rossi’s contraption. All 7 of them know how to measure Energy In and Energy Out.

***I would ‘feel better’ if you demonstrated some simple integrity and basic scientific capability such as knowing that 7 scientists can measure Energy In and Energy Out, like a resistor.

Back to premise of the dem. With the verification of thses seven scientists are other scientists going to accept their observations without questions? Or will they pick apart the statements made and ask the same obvious quesstions?
***Time will tell. But when industrial groups start opening their checkbooks, scientists are just as human as the next guy and start taking it seriously because there’s money on the table.
