In Before The Seagulls
You cannot get up early enough to get in before the seagulls.

Of course. They are all blogs, and blogs tend to copy and paste each other's material. This isn't news either. It's somebody's opinion.
Yep, right on, 99% of this stuff
Even most of the Rossi stuff was either Rossi himself, him under a pseudonym or paid borrowed name, or a made up pseudonym
Even some of the Rossi Septics were Rossi, you can tell by the writing style.
I’ve noticed that myself. If you google lenr, cold fusion, e-cat etc, you end up with an abundance of links that circularly reference each other, and try to appear to be peer reviewed technical journals, but are really just blogs of boilerplate accolades for this “new technology”, and put-downs for the ignorant skeptics.
put-downs for the ignorant skeptics.
***Ignorant skeptics deserve to be put down. Informed skeptics are worthwhile. It’s the ignorant hyperskeptics who are the seagulls. Look how fast they moved in on this thread.
And name-calling. Stupid monikers like “seagulls” for example.
You know, your latest blog regurgitation uses the word “if” 28 times. Like I said, it isn’t news. It’s a lot of opinion and name dropping that is an attempt to give a scam some credibility.

Review
“I’ve been talking about seagull management for years. If you want to understand how to turn it around, read Travis Bradberry’s Squawk!” (Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The One Minute Manager (R) and The One Minute Entrepreneur (TM) )
“There are several powerful leadership messages woven into this entertaining and memorable parable—teaching me when I was least prepared (and most ready) for it. I have a list of ten colleagues who will be getting a most-unexpected gift.” (Kenneth Forster, director, Global Customer Strategy, the Coca-Cola Company )
“Dr. Bradberry provides a wonderful solution with an easy-to-understand and utilize three-step model that allows you to engage your team and generate improved results. Read it, and you’ll see a positive change in your future!” (Robert Savage, COO, Taco Bell, Yum Brands )
“Squawk! is simple, yet powerful, and very entertaining. It provides a valuable illustration of how to get more from your team, and I was able to get through it in just one flight.” (Dennis Sadlowski, president and CEO, Siemens Energy and Automation )
“Squawk has a central theme I find near and dear—the tendency of managers to move so fast from problem to problem that they forget people are involved. People need time and attention, and this book is an important reminder that great management doesn’t happen on the fly.” (Stephen Lundin, coauthor of Fish! (R) and author of Cats )
“Companies are losing their top talent every day, and many of those departing do so on entrepreneurial wings. If you want to prevent this and learn to keep your flock together in friendlier skies, read this little fable and take its big lessons to heart!” (Michael E. Gerber, bestselling author of the E-Myth and Awakening the Entrepreneur Within )
“Squawk! is as profound as it is fun! A must-read for every manager.” (Ron McMillan, bestselling coauthor of Crucial Conversations, Crucial Confrontations, and Influencer )
Product Description
Unfortunately, we’ve all seen it happen. When faced with a problem, rather than working cooperatively to come up with a solution, your manager or colleagues come swooping in, squawking loudly, dump orders riddled with formulaic advice, and then take off, leaving you and everyone else to clean up the mess. Or—let’s be honest: there may have been a time (or three) when you have been guilty of doing that very thing yourself.
While this happens in every workplace worldwide more frequently than ever, it doesn’t have to. Through the story of Charlie, a seagull who doesn’t understand how his management actions are holding back his flock, Travis Bradberry, Ph.D., reveals the three virtues of great leadership that he has used to help thousands of people and organizations deal with seagull managers in the workplace and, just as important, to avoid being one themselves.
Charlie the seagull is a well-intentioned manager who, when faced with new challenges after previously leading his flock to success, fails to understand how his management style is holding back, rather than helping, his team. Through our bird’s-eye view of Charlie, overconfident Scott, quiet Maya, practical Yufan, and skinny, shy Alfred, we see them and the rest of the flock struggle to solve their problems while absorbing the three virtues of great leadership and teamwork along the way. This entertaining and illuminating fable will help make us all more productive, less prone to depositing messes on the heads of those around us, and more able to work effectively with those who continue to squawk at us every day.
As I've told Kevmo before, I find the name calling motivational.
Richard Bach should sue.
Rossi says he uses a resistor to heat the hydrogen. Perhaps he's using a magic hot plate.
What would motivate you to read up on the technical material available?
Never mind, nothing can meet such a high bar of ultracriticism. Perhaps the lurkers might understand the better question would be, what would motivate a rational person to read up on LENR?
The price for the new and used is a better indicator to how good the book is compared to its marketing.....kind of like Rossi
< 1 dollar indicates it is crap

There is no “technical material” that would substitute for hard proof. Not evidence, proof. No one needs an advanced degree to see that transistors work, motors work, nuclear energy works. I’ve seen the backhand claim on earlier threads that the skeptics simply haven’t been reading the right technical material. No. The general public requires proof. Incontrovertable, and performed by people with impeccible credentials, unafiliated in any way with Rossi, Focardi et al. But then they claim they’ll have their “technology” stolen by said independent labs. How convenient is that.
I almost always laugh at all the repeating "free energy" kooks and their reinvention of the same old failed processes that crop up every year or 2... but this one is different. There is actual data behind the claims, and the claims are coming from respected individuals, and not just Rossi either... and the claims are being substantiated on top of it all. Most of them stay out of the spotlight because of all the bast attacks from the mainstream foundation.
I personally believe the world needs to be ready for this in the next 5-10 years... the hardest parts to envision will be the positive and/or catastrophic changes in global influence if and when oil/coal and natural gas become less of a factor
No real issue here, for those who will simply wait around for Rossi’s demo, one way or another.
I have noticed that folks who have trouble thinking inductively tend to run home to Momma on the issue of Proof. They also, like you have just done, tend to use it as an excuse not to read up on the subject at hand.
The presumptive and condescending nature of your post above shows that when you are backed into a corner, and someone mentions proof, you resort to trying to attack the credibility of the messenger. Obviously I can’t reason linearly and stubbornly fail to read “the right stuff” otherwise I’d come around and see the light. Right? Incidently, you are doing precisely what you are accusing others of doing: running home to mother when someone mentions proof. I mentioned proof, and you leveled the accusation that “people like me” just can’t take the heat because we have faulty mental faculties and don’t read enough. Pathetic. And yes, your posts should be filed under “blogs”.
