Are you jokers here to deride other Freepers’ comments or to further scientific knowledge?

If there were anything scientific to discuss, I'd be all over it. "Cold fusion" or "LENR" (whatever you want to call it) is a total scam. Everything about Andrea Rossi screams, "Con man!" And I have suspicions about why you keep posting about an obvious scam. I'm not a gambler, so I don't know how one profits from betting. But I suspect that your constantly posting about this scam is an effort to keep the betting on E-Cat alive over there at E-Trade.

Betting on E-Cat isn't the same as investing in a concept that you believe has real potential. Have you given money to Andrea Rossi or one of his fake corporations yet? Have you placed down payment on an E-Cat yet?

So then by your own acknowledgment, this is your contribution to a scientific thread — derision. How does that further scientific knowledge? It doesn’t. How is it that the PTBs say that such behavior doesn’t qualify as anti-science?

Here’s the basics: A Freeper logs onto a thread, talks about some scientific aspect of it, and tries to further the knowledge available. A different freeper logs onto the same thread and spreads insults, derision, and stuff that comes out the back end of a bull. Which of these 2 freepers is legitimately pro-science? Which one is Anti-science?
The answer is: Your freeping behavior is anti-science.

If there were anything scientific to discuss, I’d be all over it. “Cold fusion” or “LENR” (whatever you want to call it) is a total scam.
***There is something scientific to discuss: Independently measured power densities. But you aren’t discussing that, you are here to deride and spread anti-scientific sentiment. Whatever I wanna call it — ok then, LENR. The Anomalous Heat Effect has been replicated more than 14,700 times, and that was before Rossi ever came onto the scene. For those 14000 replications to be a scam would require the widest conspiracy theory in history. It is utterly rational to think that this is not the case. Yet that doesn’t stop anti-science activists from screaming at the top of their lungs over anything LENR related: “Con! Scam!”

Everything about Andrea Rossi screams, “Con man!”
***So when these 7 scientists were tasked with reading multimeters and thermometers attached to his box, don’t you think they triple-checked their readings before publishing them? Or are they part of your ever-widening conspiracy that includes 14,700 times the effect was replicated even prior to Rossi showing up? If you were really here to further science, you would honestly and genuinely address these things.

And I have suspicions about why you keep posting about an obvious scam.
***Exactly how does a post like that contribute to the furtherance of science? It doesn’t. But it sure contributes to the furtherance of anti-science. It is also a classic fallacy known as poisoning the well. I posted LENR articles on FR long before Rossi showed up. So your ever-widening conspiracy theory now includes LENR advocates prior to this questionable character Rossi showing up, as if afficianados were in cahoots long before he started his Ringling Brothers act.

I’m not a gambler, so I don’t know how one profits from betting. But I suspect that your constantly posting about this scam is an effort to keep the betting on E-Cat alive over there at E-Trade.
***You probably mean Intrade, which is shut down. There was no LENR contract to bet on anyways. Since your suspicion is alleviated, will you be withdrawing it in the name of furtherance of science? Highly, highly doubtful. Because you are NOT here to further science. You are here to deride other freepers and conduct in a way that is anti-science.

Betting on E-Cat isn’t the same as investing in a concept that you believe has real potential.
***Exactly how would a sincere LENR afficianado do such a thing? It’s not like you can buy stock in ECat on Wall Street.

Have you given money to Andrea Rossi
***He isn’t taking money from afficianados. If he has taken money, it is big money. None of those big money investors are squawking “Scam”, are they? So why are you? In the absence of evidence of a scam, arguing for it is a classic fallacy of arguing from silence.

or one of his fake corporations yet?
***Why would someone invest in a fake corporation? How does your comment further science? It doesn’t. It furthers anti-science.

Have you placed down payment on an E-Cat yet?
***Rossi is not accepting down payments yet.

As opinionated and ignorant as ever. Read Beaudette's book and grow wise.
