Sorry to offend bang99
I now realise the mention of JC is not good manners in polite atheism
I shall refrain from further offending his sensitive sensibility
May the atomic universe bless his life

Some good bible verses might make
LF better.
This is a technical forum, no religious topics allowed!

No way you are leaving...that was not directed at you! Or were you joking?

It's hard to imagine how. Precious little scientific insight has come from religion over the centuries. Quite the opposite in most cases.

WRT electron beam / high energy photon beam induced fusion. This is all fascinating stuff, for me in particular, and might have applications, but I'm not sure it is LENR. Why?
- The nuclear reactions so observed are conventional (e.g. they are easily diagnosable as nuclear because of expected high energy products based on known reactions)
- The energies involved here are not low!
WRT phonon-mediated nuclear energy splitting:
- I agree with the comment that this would need to be published bit by bit
- This is generally true in science, You can easily build a speculative theory on a number of unproven bricks. The likely of correctness goes down with each unproven brick. Also, until you have the bricks definitely understood it is pretty difficult to make any predictions about what they do when all together.
- In this case any one of the bricks shown true would individually be interesting.

Just step away from the Dottore for a while. You are winding up your critic posts. But calm down.
Don't get crazy
Just my 2 cents.
What is the purpose of this statement ?
-
I did block RB as stated earlier. It is not whether I am "happy", it is whether one can have a mature, reasonable debate. Which clearly he cannot. So I did block him.
I started reading ECW many years back. At the time, I was hoping Rossi was real and considered myself a "supporter". However, it did not take long for Rossi to clearly show himself a fraud. I posted a few questions on ECW about Rossi that were evidently unanswerable in the positive and Frank banned me without warning.
So I started reading this forum, similarly, I stepped on some toes and got banned here as well. (However, I was eventually pardoned)
Truthfully, I read this forum now more interested in the psychology of the posters as much as the LENR content. Most of the LENR content is so rehashed and repetitive, it has become quite inane. 90% used to be arguing about Rossi. Then it was rehashing various claims about F&P replications and other history.
Then about dancing particles, lack of test data, lack of clarity and then those who chided those questioning about the subjects and that there was not room for such heresy. Questions about calorimetry, emissivty,air flow, all which have been rehashed time and time again on various other reactors and or tests. Yet with nothing ever coming of it!
It has pretty been much the same for a few years now. No real published break through's. Just the Johnny 5's, secret visitors, end of the fossil age and other big proclamations, but nothing coming from them. Yet some, such as RB, vehemently defend "the faith" like a TV evangelist. Trumpeting such as ME356 and yet when he is proven false, they simply move onto the next LENR messiah.
So yes, I am interested in the psychology of LENR followers... it is part of the package of the field! It is also a bit of a pet peeve, when someone such as THH debates with politeness and seeming sincerity and others respond with slander, ridicule and taunt. I am not bashful about calling those people out..... it is the problem of some of these forums.... rudeness and error are completely acceptable.... as long as one is "on the side of cold fusion"! However, if you are a doubter... then a simple question can be met with taunts, slander and verbal abuse without much check.
I would like to see civility and maturity in these forum posts. That does not mean one cannot speak clearly or pointedly, but one can do that without juvenile taunts and or personal taunt. I can say "I do not agree... my calculations show xyz which differ from yours... please show where I am incorrect". But some here think that skepticism towards LENR is inherently evil and must be derided. I will challenge that, just like I will challenge assertions that Rossi is a victim of "big capital venture firms" or "powers that be". He is not a victim, he is a proven liar and fraudster as documented in the court dispositions.
I had originally hoped that this Mizuno event would be a different story! Sadly, it seems to be heading down the path of the others. Murky questions lingering in the shadows about input power, calorimetry, has it really been confirmed by others as rumored, more and more questions arise that are a bit troubling. Not that there is any indication of fraud like Rossi, but other aspects seem odd.
Hopefully the Mizuno tests will pan out and be the break through we hope for..... but my confidence is fading ... especially when the like of RB is crowing the same as he did with ME356, Rossi and the one not to be named. Been there... done that... several times before..... It does not breed much confidence at all.
So yes, I am interested in the psychological aspects of this field!
Seems, this is the way, Frank deals with critizism. He simply cannot. Maybe he stuck in his childhood. And never learned how to cope with reasonable critics.
Else I cannot understand, why he should ban people like You, which used to be long term supporters of Dottore Scammarsi.
Maybe, Rossi pays him or already did by offering him one condo. -
