The Playground

ABD Watch

After I wrote a previous post, the notorious LENR outlaw, enemy of brevity, and self-proclaimed 'King of the Trolls' Abd ul-Rahman Lomax wrote two pompous articles where he felt the need to describe me as a "Troll" over 30 times. Well, praise from Caesar is praise indeed, but I respectfully decline this proffered "knighthood" as I am ultimately not worthy of place in his kingdom. Whilst we are somewhat similar in that we enjoy commenting on the foibles of others, I manage to do this without using offensive terms about people’s mental faculties, such as "idiot", or "senile".

Indeed, my relative lack of trolling prestige can actually be quantified:

• Number of websites and/or shady cults Zeus46 is known to be banned from: 0
• Number of websites and/or shady cults Lomax is known to be banned from: 4*

I believe he wants to bestow his highest troll honours upon me for my services in trying to improve his website. Surprisingly enough, he seems to agree with some of the points of the last "ABD watch" post. He mentions how some of "his friends" concur that his magnum dopii are bit on the lengthy side, and he also appears to agree that the inescapable biographical sign-off under each article is perhaps a little OTT.

One definite improvement that he made to his website after reading my advice, was to add a topic heading called "LENR-forum admin", so one can tally up exactly how lengthy are his bleatings about the hen-pecked moderation team here. It turns out that (so far) there are eight posts that refer to this subject... Which strangely enough is almost double those that come under the headings of both "LENR theory" and "Scientific Method" combined... ie. Once again, a mockery is made of the website's strapline: "Supporting Low Energy Nuclear Reaction Research". I hope those who he tapped up for funds knew what they were getting themselves into?

Now without further ado... Here's more highlights and/or lowlights from CFC.net:

• Abd finally embraces the phrase "Planet-lomax.com", possibly because it matches with the size of his ego, apparent to myself at least, after he compared himself to Martin Luther King, Mahatma Gandhi and Malcolm X. I can only assume this orbit-velocity ego prevents him from admitting to his narcissistic tendencies - A prime example being his preference to blame his blog software for the continued omnipresence of his end-of-article personal puff-pieces.
• Abd's first use of the F-word... On LENR-forum that word only been uttered 25 times (Ignoring 'accidental' misspellings of Fukushima). Unsurprisingly, the potty-mouthed Abd was responsible for 10 of these. Interestingly, the second-placed coprophone was Keieueue (3 times), then Pathoskeptic (2)... Which by an astounding coincidence, is the same as their given 'order of merit' in Abd's 'Troll Hall of Fame'. Who'd have thought?
• A turgid post correctly described by Abd as a "Blizzard of Blo(g)viation"... Possibly he meant that to describe LENR-forum, but LENR-forum is a forum. The only blog here is his.
• A hilarious comment by Peter Gluck purposefully misquoting Winston Churchill. No doubt Gluck recognises the Ceausescu-style policy of trying to have your opponents permanently committed to the loony bin.
• Finally, despite the below-shoulder-length hair visible on his avatar, and his oft-mentioned moderation duties on the famously Grateful Dead fan infested W.E.L.L. forum, Abd has previously denied his the use of hallucinogenic drugs... Which puts me at a loss to explain his confusion over the persona of the lame pastiche calling themselves "zeus45". Indeed, The only "evidence" that Abd offers for his theory that Zeus45 and I are the same person, is that a fourth person (yes, really) had a comment referring to "planet-lomax.com" (population 1) deleted from said website. Apparently he thinks my subsequent use of the phase means I must have known about this first post. Which somehow suggests that all of us are really just one person. Unfortunately for Abd, I actually pinched it from an earlier, and apparently-now-deleted, comment on ego-out.

• Abd also claims that "I" (ie. the two Zeus') are "lying" about this, despite "me" saying things that are "literally true". I currently find Abd's disconnected logic on this incredibly confusing. However I have a sneaking suspicion it will all become clearer later on, as I ponder on this unintentional koan whilst watching a strangely abstract sunrise from Glastonbury's healing fields. Turn on, tune in; right Abd?

Best regards,

Zeus46

* Some may consider a ban from a shady "cult" (sic) for trying to usurp the leader by "teaching without knowledge" as an early example of innate Napoleonic tendencies. I however, prefer not to draw a firm conclusion from this.

zeus46, if you had any self-doubt, I can confirm that you are not a troll. At least not here, anyway.

zeus46 - you and Abd seem not to like each other. Abd is, I can see, extremely annoying - partly because he is usually right and rubs people's nose in it. I'm sorry he is not here but disagree with his idea that lenr-forum admins are either incompetent or hopelessly biassed.

I'd cut him some slack: he contributes more than many.

I did. You should have seen the first draught.

To quote His Lordship: "I deny that my intention is to incite Peter Abd to being upset (“trolling”); it is actually the opposite, and that I fail is a result of attempting something difficult, that others have given up on. Reaching him."

And I agree that Abd contributes worthy stuff. He also calls me a lot of names (including "liar"), and it is that which I take umbrage to.

I look like this IRL, but without the receding hair. But grey, lots more grey. It's is appropriate here.

Thanks Alan - I'm not familiar with Durapot 819 - did they chose not to use 810 for a reason?

We're conducting private testing for obvious reasons.

Alan, I assume that even if MFMP had the right paint (which would be nice), the outcome of their emissivity test will nonetheless depend upon the thickness of the layer of paint, which is an unknown quantity?

Quote from Alan Smith

MFMP are about to do another emissitivity test

Of course MFMP can do any test they want but if they would like to make any comparison with Lugano they must be sure to use the very same material ( i.e. PURE Alumina as from the report ).

If they do that they will agree with Tc's values and COP ~ 1!

The overlord is having a terrible awful sloppy day: "( i.e. PURE Alumina as from the report )."

More of those telltale, pesky and unnecessary punctuation spacing and CAPS issues conveniently packed into a LIE about the Lugano reactor material.

Dewey, you seem to reckon that (some of?) the various pro-Rossi personas on here are Rossi? You may be right, but it seems a bit weird. They could be Rossi, or Levi, or anyone under the sun, from my POV. Of course, it is undoubtedly true from cursory inspection of JONP that Rossi is very weird, so...

THH - the overlord himself has provided the proof across multiple venues. All before our very eyes - its part of his sctick to operate, tease and manipulate in plain site. He thrives in his costly game but has substantially miscalculated this time around.

Where are those guys anyway? At least we can hear the crickets this time.

"the overlord himself has provided the proof across multiple venues."

And this "proof" consists of ?

Very funny Z. RU in a Nordic country by any chance?

WOW (all caps for the Weaver joy) you are predicting the future ! That's not science anymore but simple guessing.

Apart from the pure ( PURE PuRe ) Alumina they need the right fuel and the right electromagnetic stimulation. Otherwise they can't say to have repeated the experiment.

Unnecessary punctuation spacing ?

This is because I normally write ( M * a + th ) and we use spacing for readability.

Also YOU use CAPS. But this does not mean that we are the same person.

About what you call a "LIE" (your caps): Lugano Authors have done an X-ray analysis.....

and you ? what ? Have you any proof that what are you saying is true ?

I see only your (IH) interest in diffusing a possible lie after 3 years from the test and after IH used the same report to submit a patent.

And at that time everything was OK because IH was raising money.
