Thanks barty. I like to keep humor in the equation

barty The forum is still very slow, with some timeouts, making it difficult to navigate. Is there anything we can do to fix?

yes, I'm ordering another server and will move it

good news!

Much much better today - have you migrated the system?

Really running smooth now!

Ja, LF Forum flutscht!

Been quiet today. So much going on, there must be some opinions...yet crickets. Why?

While the forum has been quiet today, LENR land has not. There is a disruption in the force. Sad really. No wonder the field has been stagnant.

Look in the mirror, and you shall see where the problem lies. The science is solid, but the personalities are flawed and conflicted.

Forum running slow again, so be patient.

The field is stagnant because of secrecy.

That's the number one issue that's prevent progress.

The second, of course, is funding and labor for experimentation.

Secrecy is the #1 problem keeping human civlilization from improving.

The problems caused by secrecy in technology are supposed to be solved with the patent system.

Unfortunately, patents have not been granted for cold fusion, so the system is not working.

The purpose of patents is spelled out in the U.S. Constitution: patents and copyrights are "to promote the progress of science and useful arts . . ."

Not to make inventors rich. That's not the purpose. When people patent an important technology and then refuse to manufacture it, the government

forces them to manufacture or license, because of explicit intent of the Constitution. Not manufacturing would not "promote progress."

Atom ecology thread : Access denied. Any reason ?

leDahu Sorry, legal threat forced us to disable. For now, A-E and it's owner, is taboo to discuss unless made public elsewhere. Weighing options.

HOLY COW!!!!

Ecology is busy at atom-ecology.russgeorge.net

Can i say how much I love LENR-forum?

I'm waiting for breakthrough, and waiting and waiting, and some people have waited 30 years

armenian proverb :lamb is in spring ..snow is in winter .. maybe by autumn in assisi?

It's happening now, somewhere. And the power is increasing. There is hope.

Heck-Melvin Miles had cold fusion in kitchen back in Ridgecrest!

Cold fusion will change our mental imprint and we will be different people.

Thats what I hope too.

When all costs nothing, will some still want more than others? Will we let them have it?

I wonder what query might clarifty whether pointless avarice always expresses in the human genome?

The US doesn’t have much in the way of privacy laws

The UK does, but there’s several hurdles for the plaintiff to jump over

Well, it's not going to happen. Problem lies outside of the forum but we have no wish to make it worse. Bur all is well in the lab.

Silence before the storm?

Red sky at night, sailor’s delight. Red sky in morning, sailor’s take warning. Does that make it clear?

Yes, but I like it when there are no clouds on the horizon. Clear blue skies.

I'm convinced we have more than enough know-how at this point to produce robust, powerful LENR reactors.

The problem is that there isn't enough labor to build and test them.

I'm convinced that a small team working on shifts 24 hours a day could produce fantastic results in a matter of several weeks to a few months.

The problem is that no such small team of people with the willingness and eagerness to run repeated tests exists.

And I don't see this changing anytime soon - especially when the people having success go secretive, repeatedly.

Humans are emotional creatures and the Rossi fiasco has done a great deal of harm.

No, the technology and know-how have spread into the financial interests of governments like China, India, Japan, US (military application), and others. I see the TRL progressing at an accelerated pace given this game theoretic scenario. Rossi will be forgotten, no doubt.

Anyone watching the HBO miniseries on Chernobyl? It's superb.

I suspect the actual leader in the field of LENR is Russia. However, due to their enormous untapped oil reserves along with well established nuclear industry, they have been averse towards the release of LENR technology. Time will tell.

Just saying what has been on everyone's mind in regards to why Russia hasn't released a working LENR devise. Ehh, "economics".

Is LENR dead or why it is so silent here?
