“A shill, plant or stooge is a person who helps a person or organization without disclosing that he or she has a close relationship with that person or organization.”

An idiot is a person who takes a position on something even though they do not have all the facts. This person can be pro or con, but their position is taken to make themselves seem more knowledgeable to their peers than is justified by their experience or knowledge...

ah, shucks, I just posted the same article

Lol cool. I thought you might have missed this. I guess you were on top of it after all. :)

Ummm, that’s why we have people who report on these events we can’t be at personally.

I prefaced my remarks that I was basing my statements on what I read from the article.

Tell me the conclusions I made that you seem to have a problem with and why, based on what I know from this article.

[Secret Agent Man]

The article didn’t say how big their fuel tank was, or what kind of fuel they ran on. Generators run on all different kinds of fuel, I don’t know if it runs on the same fuel your smaller home generator uses. Larger generators aren’t always fueled by gasoline.

I was pointing this out because the article didn’t mention it and if it was known and put in the story, people could have determined given how full they were, how long they could have run for.

So, they left this honking big genset connected and running throughout the experiment? Gee, I wonder why they did that...

If Rossi’s device is doing what he claims, it produces excess energy through a Low Energy Nuclear Reaction. That's not a free lunch, any more than the energy generated by a coal fired power plant is. The only difference between the two is the physical mechanism used to extract energy from the fuel source (nuclear reaction vs. chemical reaction).

http://www2.slac.stanford.edu/vvc/theory/weakinteract.html should give anyone enough to work on.

Note, the the Weak Force is probably the reason why nickel doesn't "burn" down to "copper" all the time anyway ~ it could in an older hotter universe of course ~ but not under the current conditions ~ EXCEPT a little bit at a time under highly controlled conditions.

As the universe cools folks will have an even harder time working with this sort of fire, or any fire for that matter.

Good thing we still have plenty of residual free hydrogen atoms around. If we didn't we'd never figure this out I'm afraid.

Just realized that the larsen/Widom paper provides several reasons why a naturally occurring phenomenon on Earth (similar to the corona around the Sun) would appear to suddenly appear, dart to and fro, then rapidly disappear at a high rate of speed out of sight ~ to wit, your typical UFO.

Must be a gas discharge from somewhere ~ maybe natural gas bubbles? No idea what it would be, but it didn't seem to me any of this needed to be particularly hot to occur ~ although it would yield considerable heat once it did occur.
