Rossi is a killer...good for him and good for LENR.
He is a liar, a fraud and thief. He "killed" what little credibility cold fusion had. By defrauding I.H. he cut most of the remaining funding for research. How can that possibly be good for LENR?? If that was good, what would you call bad??
This is an insane thing to say.
As Hunter noted, Rossi first tried to kill the environment. Recently, he's been killing the truth.
LENR is part of the fabric of nature. It has been discovered and forgotten for the last 125 years from the time of Tesla. If the past is prologue, LENR will be rediscovered by a new generation in a decade or two. But there will always be people like Rossi and Papp around to deal with. LENR will be reborn again when its time is right.
axil. Stop bombing threads with inaccuracies and irrelevances and unanswerable semi-questions.
who’s better than Axil?
Display MoreLook at Trump....
Well, his father told him, "You're a killer, you're a king," and expected him to be those things. His older brother Freddy, who died young, suffered for not living up the father's expectations that a man be incredibly tough and almost merciless. Donald was willing to be those things, and that's exactly who his father expected him to be. So he did achieve what his father expected of him. He is the person his father wanted him to be.

that is one incredible analogy there Axil,
comparing Donald Trump to Andrea Rossi,
Mercy.

First time Axil has touched on politics that I can remember. Good reminder for all here, that it is in our collective best interest to avoid voicing political views. Getting to the bottom of LENR is hard enough as is, without throwing that into the discussion. There are plenty of other sites for that.

Not to get political here, but it's not that big a stretch if you are talking about how they speak about their supposed accomplishments. That's just fact, not politics. Just saying... in the clearance section.
Also not trying to get political, but the Rossi saga has been very instructive in trying to understand the political events of the past few years.
So Trump counts as ‘politics’ now?
...Whoever thought ‘The Idiocracy’ would become a hard-hitting satire in their own lifetime?
Care to comment on the style? May I respond in kind? I'd love to teach Zeus some lovely American words. I had to actually look up "pillock" ... it's pretty obscure. It derives from pillicock a Norwegian slang term for "penis".
SOT,
Yes, Zeus is picking on you, so you have a right to respond in kind. As you said, there are plenty of words in the English language that are similar, without being vulgar. Have at it.
Not that I understand this need for schoolyard taunts. As you know, on ECN's I was insulted frequently (many times by you), but kept my cool for the most part. Once in a while though, I found it necessary to fire back, just to keep the wolves at bay.
It derives from pillicock a Norwegian slang term for "penis".
Norwegian? 16th century Northern English, according to the Oxford Eng. Dict. It is a British expression, unknown in the U.S.
For those who strive to be offended, Norway is not too far to travel.
Question: In the U.K. does "pill" mean "a disagreeable or tiresome person"? It is old fashioned in the U.S. Webster lists this under the definition of "pill" as in medicine. I wondered for a moment if it might be derived from "pillicock."
I see that Oxford lists "pill" (annoying person) under pill. Still, it could it be an Americanism. Oxford has lowered their standards and they list Americanisms as if they were real words. Such as:
Truthy
Informal (chiefly US). Appearing to be true or truthful without actually or necessarily being so; having the quality of truthiness.

Under Pillock in Wicktionary
"Alternatively, from the same basis as pillicock (compare regional Norwegian pill (“penis”)) + the diminutive suffix -ock."
And yes, mercifully unknown in the US.

Oh, that's not what I meant. The words I would use to describe Zeus and his "contributions" would be quite vulgar. But Zeus isn't worth addressing, not even with insults.

I don't recall your being insulted at all on ECN. Unless "terminally gullible" or the like is an insult.
Anyway. It's all fine. Conclusion and back to topic: thus far, nobody has built anything that works from what they learned in a Swartz class.
'Pill'has fallen out of use in the UK, merely meant somebody was a 'bit of a pain' - I am sure that it has no connection with Scandinavian anything. Most UK slang based on corrupted foreign words is derived from Indic or Arabic roots. We haven't invaded or fought with the North since (from memory) the battle of Copenhagen, when Nelson whupped the Danish navy. But we never stayed long enough to swap enduring pleasantries. On the other hand our soldiery brought back plenty of slang from the tropics.
Alan Smith sounds like if eu was aftican or indian-based Boris will be more likely to support it.

And no doubt those insertions would once again showcase your peculiar obsession with a certain orifice?

I have not seen him post in a very long while. Did he tire of the constant futile bickering and leave or is there some other situation?
