Actually, I did.

The best thing is – the conference is growing. Now in its 17th session the progress from the repeatable experimental facts are gaining substantial ground. As more people realize the facts will have to lead the theory in terms of the reality the oncoming progress to commercial energy production is looking more likely. The naysayers might have us all think that conventional physics preclude any of the LENR or cold fusion facts. But trying to apply theories and “laws” that simply do not apply or work in reality for justifying a conclusion is too close to the mental state of ‘beliefs’ instead of research into the wonders of the universe.
Gradually the perception of these phenomena is changing for the better, the mystery is slipping away and eventually a way or ways to explain what’s going on can be completed setting out an engineering framework for intense progress.
It’s going to be a furious year before the next ICCF.

in another conversation, maybe. certainly not in your statement that we're talking about.

In the cases of higher claimes excess heat such as Rossi and Defcalion, the experimental setup has to be doubted. Also these have never been independently verified.

NEW ENERGY AND FUEL has posted a nice summary of ICCF-17 thus far:

http://newenergyandfuel.com/http:/newen ... -underway/

It concludes:

Defkalion and Rossi are not out for a cheap Nobel Prize (~1.1 M US$), they are out for the tens billions of US$ in profit.

Next they will be able, if so disposed, to finance their own prizes with perpetual endowments able to finance prizes 10x of the value of the Nobel.

They choose not to get Nobel prizes because this would endanger their billions profits.

Anyway, what you forgotten is to get a Nobel Prize you need results AND political connections. Today more the latter than the former.

tomclarke,
It looks like Rossi was correct in his forecast that no paper or scientific experiment would silence the pathological critics. He forecast that only the commercial sale of working units would do that.

Accusing Rossi of being a fraud and a liar, as you have done, shows that you are too biased to think clearly.

Rossi has repeatedly lied on his blog.

tomclarke,


Oh. Where? Give us some examples. He has done better than average in fulfilling promises when he will do something.
