BLP update

Quote

I wish I had BLP shares so I could sell them to him.

ROTFWL!

Quote

Mills is out of the prediction business, and will no longer venture his guess as to when commercialization will happen. Guess he reads the critiques of him

Brilliant! The critique of his predictions has been around for going on thirty years. He just now learned how to read critiques, perhaps?

I'm waiting for the going-out-of-business sale. Maybe I can pick up a BLP labcoat cheap. Or a suncell to use for the Fourth of July (If I can find lots of 440V 3 phase power at the parade grounds).

ROTFWL!

What is so funny? You have a perverted sense of humor.

I like the part of the anonymous briefing summary that makes it clear that the author is completely unbiased:

"Furthermore, Dr. Mills is arguably the greatest scientist and innovator in history."

You obviously dont think that this is true otherwise you wouldnt make fun of him. But perhaps Mills ist the greatest scientist in history. So would you say you are unbiased?

I would be very cautious with accusations of being biased. We humans are all biased on a thousand topics so a bit of humility is appropriate for everyone of us.

My opinion: if he can proof hydrino, show that his atomic model gives good predictions for the involved energies and his correction to einsteins relativity proofs correct I think Mills is arguably the greatest scientist in history.

Robert Horst is not remarking about Miles one way or the other, he is commenting on the apparent subjectivity of the author of the article.

It makes more sense for him to prove what the SUN-CELL reaction products are: 2H or 4He? or just AgH* compounds.

Mills "correction to einsteins relativity is correct". This is given by the prove of the magnetic mass of the proton and the exact 126GV resonance of the proton magnetic mass measured at CERN.

Mills is by no doubt one of the greatest physicists. But this does not make him a great engineer, who already made silly mistakes, like the photovoltaic dome, which will go blind under silver vapor or will deliver pure efficiency, when just run at low temperature.

You got to give the devil his due. Mills deserves immortality just for discovering a self-sustaining plasma. That alone is impressive in the extreme. Just as important as the discovery of the LENR reaction. That plasma discovery should have made it onto the national news, but it has been universally ignored. Maybe such a discover is deadly to all pay checks and job security of the hot plasma physicists or maybe the GUT is an anchor chain around Mills' neck that keeps his real and substantive accomplishments from being acknowledged.

OK, Axil. Please explain how some hot plasma physicists, afraid of job loss, could prevent Mills from talking to the press or could prevent the press from publishing? Or for that matter, could prevent Bezos or Musk from buying in? What are they going to do? Stage a porn star weekend for Mills and publish it? What exactly can they do that is not a para-nerd fantasy?

Ignore what he has done.

C'mon Axil, why would wealthy entrepreneurs ignore the strong possibilities of making more money than anyone ever has before?

Want a clue? Because nobody except a few enthusiasts and colleagues actually believes anything Mills has said or claimed he did. That's why he is widely ignored. I'm not even saying he is wrong. But the claims are extravagant and the performances are dreadful. So what to expect? Are you really that impressed by some flashes of bright light? Then buy an arc light for your backyard. I think you can buy these up to 300kW. Look up the Vortek water-wall plasma arc lamp,

A little magnesium in a gallium bath may be interesting and maybe solve some "in step plating" problems.

Some info from the latest Mills shareholder briefing.

My summary :

a) Work on the SunCell has been abandoned (suspended? Neither the silver pumps or PV's work)

b) They now plan to go with thermal and/or MHD generator (patents filed ...? Unknown territory.)

c) They are trying to 'bottle' hydrinos (metal hydrino-hydride compounds) which could be examined in outside labs

d) They are investigating explosive reactions (10*TNT)

e) They are liquidating some of their assets (lab) and cutting their burn rate

Quote

They are investigating explosive reactions (10*TNT)

Yay!

Axil, did he really discover this plasma? Where is the recipe for this plasma and has it been replicated? It is so hard to follow the truth about these things on this website, and way worse on ECW. Forget your chiral polaritons for a second and let's try to help prove them right or wrong.

Exactly (although this is about MIlls, not Miles). When reading something sent out anonymously like this, it is fair to use anything in the article to try to figure out if the author is impartial or not. When the article says that "Dr. Mills is arguably the greatest scientist and innovator in history," it sounds like a sales or investor pitch, not someone trying to objectively report status.

It was especially jarring to me as I am just finishing Isaacson's great biographies of Einstein and Da Vinci, who would both be on my short list for those titles.

It may also be a sign of desperation.

Why not a sign of dishonesty? Long-standing self-delusion and/or dishonesty? Why do some people have such a hard time considering those when discussing putative new sources of energy? As often as not, that's all there is to claims for novel sources of energy that seem to violate established physics, whatever that is.
