It seems that AGW is likely to be the least of our concerns, it's just the most public. Peak oil is by far and away a bigger problem. Fuel costs in the UK have recently risen by greater than 20%... That's on top of the massive increases in 2009-2010! (probably about 30-35% in the last two years (th...

What you're not mentioning is the other side of the coin: the decades of junk science and manufactured doubt paid for by a plutocratic oligarchy that got its extreme money and almost total power from control of access to energy... and who see nothing wrong with quietly spending billions over the de...

The effect of a possible grand solar minimum has already been analysed, leading to the view that it will defer 0.3 deg C of heating for it's duration. Hardly entering a new ice age. Meanwhile global emissions last year were the highest ever I have no idea how your text comes to be invisible Mike! A...

Seeing how the current greenies are going after any and all viable long term power sources, If I was working on something I'd be sure to keep it under wraps if it even had a remote chance of working out. Do not estimate the power that greenies wield, they'll find a reason, something anything to shu...

Don't know. Several folks have tried but failed. Other than arguments about how "unconvinced" you are, do you have any FACT to say this thing CAN'T work? That's exactly the heart of the problem. If I put a collection of undeclared chemicals into a microwave, fire it up and declare that net energy i...

and again, another what the heck are you babbling about? I am babbling repeating your masterpiece when you admitted the possibility of existence of 700keV electron in crystal lattice. Read up on polaritons. And where did I mention 700keV electrons? Please show me. By the way, jacket in your beloved...

Ok, since videos are claims, show me a video of him scamming it! :wink: :roll: Bet you'd call THAT evidence! :lol: :lol: I don't understand your post. I am not making any claims of my own. It is Rossi making claims. The onus is on him to do anything and everything that is necessary to make his poin...

Actually, it is if consistant with posts by a number of people giving consistant written reports on the item. Evidence, not proof. I wasn't under the impression that multiple other people had written reports of the measurements and results. I understood a few people had been given restricted access...

The video indicates less than 1m/s steam velocity. How in the heck did you come up with this? Does anyone know how to extract sequenced stills from a video? Can someone to a photogrametry study on the output? It looked WAY more than 1 m/s to me. It only matters to those that count the video as evid...

Or has Hitchens put it more concisely: "That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence" But there IS "evidence". Not great evidence perhaps, but many reports of significant excess heat. And so far all I've heard to the contrary (with one or two exceptions I am still r...

bcglof --Measurements don't make predictions or explanations, theories do. Measurements just are. Though I agree of course that measurements must be confirmed and replicated. Theories explain or predict measurements. In this case, we lack the measurements needed to declare that standard theory can'...

Chris. Right, but intention or ingenuity isn't my point, the order of observation and theory is. Kepler didn't wake up one morning, tabula rasa, with a theory of motion, then later find to his delight that Tycho Brahe had recorded a stack of observations that happened to support his theory. And of ...

Do you find the fact that Leonardo Corporation, a 14 year old company, does not seem to exist in any real sense odd? (ie, web site phone number bogus, web site address bogus, web site advertised product non-existent, web search presence invisible, no apparent factory). Actually, no. Many SMALL "eng...
