I see that, as usual, Joshua Cude has piled it on thick. I'm willing to answer questions from others, but will not be replying to what is a collection of honed arguments, designed to concisely mislead, with just enough fact to be plausible, but then imputations and implications that might as well be lies. I have not read all of it, by any means. At one time, I went over Cude's arguments carefully, looking for value in terms of the skeptical objections. That value has become very low, what I did look at was bringing up nothing new.
As to Kirk, he is invited to raise specific issues that might be of use for future investigation, but he is now dwelling outside the realm of active investigation. Heat/helium is under active investigation and I am in communication with that work. So if there is something to contribute, now is the time. His research is rapidly becoming irrelevant.
I do not normally follow this forum. The most reliable email address for me right now is abd (at) yahoogroups (dot) com, is most reliable. Those interested in creating content on cold fusion are invited to do so on Wikiversity, though I'm very little active there now, I might assist. A major focus of my activity of late has been on Quora. I can be private-messaged there, and often answer questions on LENR. https://www.quora.com/profile/Abd-Ul-Rahman-Lomax
