I skimmed it and I think this will be a nice read when I have some downtime. A bunch of snakes fighting each other over rights to a scam. The entertainment value is only just starting!

Re: LENR Is Real

Sounds like the robot factory he was planning five years or more ago will be up and running ASAP. Excellent. Just for the sake of discussion, if there is no factory or products coming off this factory line in one or even two more years, would that be any cause for reflection on Mr.... err... Dr. Ros...

Re: Sell The Whitehouse to Trump

.. The man has done nothing but lose money his whole life. At best he's worth between 700 million and 2.5 billion, yet we know he'd be worth more had he simply not touched the money at all. This is reasonable article on that issue: http://www.politifact.com/punditfact/statements/2015/dec/09/occupy-...

Re: Interstellar Travel, using off the shelf lasers.

You might not know what the target was, but the laser driver would not be overlooked. The Mote in God's Eye Incidently, a title of a great Niven book! Although I don't think you meant the book, just using the meaning. For relativistic weapons, I was reminded of a much less known book called The Kil...

I know English is not his native language, but automatic spellcheckers are ubiquitous and easy to use in web blogs. I suspect he lets these mistakes through on purpose.

Re: Question about Fukushima in 2016

So what is the likely answer for Fukushima? If, as Chernobyl, some kind of long term containment is built, these things need regular maintenance. For thousands of years. I just do not see our current civilizations as able to maintain that kind of commitment. It isn't even assured over a few decades....

Re: SpaceX News

I'm trying to follow this debate can't seem to follow what Kite is getting at. What am I missing. Aux tanks add weight but extend burn time. Max thrust is capped to what main engines can deliver. Seems to me like not a great idea, unless the engines are very powerful to begin with and the volume of ...

IP Bought or licensed? He certainly is making it sound that IH is just a licensee and downplaying their role.

Re: SpaceX News

A mechanical boost pushing off the pad might work be better or at least safer than feeding fuel and oxy in for those critical moments.. Like the Navy had to do with launching planes off a carrier's short runway. Maybe even some steam pistons the give the rocket a bit of a boost for, say, maybe 25-75...

Re: LENR Is Real

Looks like some leveling of expectations to me; that is a sound and reasonable statement, and it works well for them whether their E-Cat venture turns out to be a fraud by Rossi or not. ". . . we encourage open-minded skepticism."
