That stuff about a control run somehow ruining the device is a bunch of crap. Rossi could, and should, do a control run without injecting any gas at all. I’m beginning to think this Jed is in on the scam.

***I don’t think so. But it’s simple enough to do a control run without the powder if that is the case.
You mean this part of his post, right?
Yup. There is another huge practical problem with doing a blank run.
Injecting nitrogen, air or some other gas into the powder will probably
contaminate and destroy the powder. This is a problem because of powder is
expensive and difficult to fabricate. It is also a problem because after
you contaminate it, you could not produce heat from it. You would have to
produce heat first, then do your destructive blank run.
This is like demanding that Mr. Ford first demonstrate that his Model T can
drive at 40 mph, then he must demonstrate that when you crash it into a
brick wall at 40 mph, it is destroyed and cannot drive at any speed after
that.
