Quote from LenrdSkynrd

I've gotten into it with "Professor Dave" on YouTube. His EU video is friendly and cute, but it is a hit piece, pure and simple. The guy in real life, however, is neither friendly nor cute. He is vile. Check out his YouTube comments section to see his litany of condescending, vulgar responses to anyone questioning his limitless knowledge. He's a high school science teacher, for god's sake. Hardly a pedestal high enough to rain down insults on those who don't believe in his special brand of unfalsifiable and undetectable magic (i.e. black holes, dark matter, big bangs, Oort clouds).

Dave's debunking video basically comes down to this: EU guys think electricity is more important than gravity, but gravity is all we see in the universe (or think we see), so they're crazy.

I found most of his arguments be "ad hominem" and mocking the people than the ideas. He clearly has an entry level knowledge, I was not impressed at all by his "debunking". However, He has a point that the EU fans often respond poorly to this kind of debunking. The heavy weights of the EU theory know better than engaging such a low level of criticism.

He should go read the work of Alfven and Birkeland- he might learn something.

What do you think of the Email with

Lowel Morgan starting at the 17 minute mark

I think it is disgraceful and spiteful, and motivated by resentment at losing his job (or his pay-cheque). If it took him six years of face to face contact to realise they were all rogues and charlatans he must be dumb. If he realised that (or thought that) before the six years were up then he is no saint. So in my honest opinion he is both dumb and a rogue, or at least unbelievably naive.

Thanks for pointing that out, I honestly had not looked that part of the video as 5 minutes of slander, ad hominem and arguments of authority had been long enough to endure.

This e-mail is clearly inflamatory, but coming from a person that worked for 6 years in the project, and decides to do such low badmouthing after all that time, just when he loses his paycheck, kind of says much more about who is doing the badmouthing than about the badmouthees.

Just because it’s really interesting to watch, if you want to see the instantaneous disappearance of a tungsten probe, watch the following video from around the 35:00 mark.

The whole presentation is worth watching, but that moment is a highlight.

Quote from Navid

I for one, hope the Safire team associates with physicists who can help them publish their work and get some academic credibility. Rome wasn't built in one day, and neither was a new energy co. They are a communicative and open team, and should play to their skills to build out their weaknesses.

I think that this is a strange statement from somebody not impressed by peer-reviewed papers on the pandemic (and related matters.) Safire are quite rightly interested in commercial credibility right now, and laying all of your cards on the table is often not a good idea when you are doing that. This direct quote from Monty Childs (via me) gives you some idea of the problems this causes.

Quote from Alan Smith

The team are back at the lab and conducting more experiments, results are conclusive – repetition of last year’s tests and results. Elemental transmutation is very real and repeatable!! Not sure exactly how they plan to get this into the public domain without revealing the mechanism but this is being worked on now.

I would sooner not comment. Academic bitchfests are pointless.

COMPLAINERS?

I urge anybody who thinks this video is as awful as I do to complain to YT about it. Easy to do, Watch it on YT itself- not an embedded copy. Just under the clip itself is a title line, and below that on the RHS (on a desktop) are the like and share buttons. On the far right are three dots ...click on the three dots and there's a little drop-down menu. The first one says 'report' - so have at it. I and other members have already done so, and I am expecting/hoping ECW members to join in too.

Thanks for pointing to these selected works of Morgan. He is into “quack science” then, and has published with one of the “bozos” at least. Go figure.

Quote from Bruce__H

But complain on what basis? And to what end? The guy in the video is certainly caustic and ridiculing, but those are qualities that often feature prominently in posts on LENR Forum itself. So what feature of the video, exactly, is so objectionable?

Aside from the tone, I think that this guy makes many good points. Eliminating the video from YouTube will not make his arguments any less valid.

The video contains slander. This is grounds for the complaint.
