Actually, that is "Rossisays" and could well be "Rossifiction". Anything Rossi claims is not worth the electrons it's written
No. The house story is entirely true, but that was back in Italy.

Thank you Max- worth a listen.

Google translation of above...
Development of the fundamentals of technology for obtaining metals of the plasma state of water-mineral systems. Magnitogorsk: IMET URORAN. Candidate thesis Oil is the blood of the planet, we need to make a model of the planet and we will get a generator of Tarasenko, this energy will conquer the universe! : lenr:

If the heat production capacity of the Sun is 277 Watts per cubic meter, how does a LENR reactor the size of a fuse at room temperature produce the same amount of heat?
It would be very wrong to regard the sun as being a homogenous clump of matter. There are many mysteries about the sun, one of them being that the outer plasma envelope - the corona is much hotter than the surface. There are other puzzles, too. For example, it appears to have a hole in it - see below. So I think your question, though pertinent, is based on a flawed assumption.

Who knows what will happen. But I suspect that there will be far too much oxygen around to show you anything funny.

GW is certainly not encouraged as a topic. We have enough trouble keeping our cool in here as it is..

Here's another Maverick tale. A fascinating read.
Joe Weber’s claims in 1969 to have detected gravitational waves – the claims that catapulted his fame, that made him possibly the most famous living scientist of his generation – were swiftly and vehemently refuted. The subsequent decades offered near total withdrawal of support, both from scientific funding agencies and his peers. He was almost fired from the University of Maryland. Weber summed up his circumstances with a self-effacing remark about his second wife, Virginia Trimble, a young astronomer 23 years his junior. The sociologist Harry Collins recounted: ‘[Weber] told me with a smile that when he married her, he was famous and she was not, and now their roles were reversed.’

The paper describing the first recorded observations of the effect of Penicilium mould on bacterial growth could not get published today.

"Do we need more "small" science?
Over in Switzerland, Alzheimer's researcher Lawrence Rajendran has been asking himself a similar question: Should science be smaller again? Rajendran, who heads a laboratory at the University of Zurich, recently founded a journal called Matters. Set to launch in early 2016, the journal aims to publish "the true unit of science" — the observation.
Rajendran notes that Alexander Fleming’s simple observation that penicillin mold seemed to kill off bacteria in his petri dish could never be published today, even though it led to the discovery of lifesaving antibiotics. That's because today's journals want lots of data and positive results that fit into an overarching narrative (what Rajendran calls "storytelling") before they'll publish a given study.
"You would have to solve the structure of penicillin or find the mechanism of action," he added."

The irony today may be that extremely constrained sourcing of information by web vending and "vetting" of information may be having less than salutary effects on innovators and hence on deep innovation.
Absolutelly!

As we decided before, proton / proton fusion is so improbable that it is virtually impossible.
Remember, 14,000,0000,000 years per reaction in the core of the Sun.As each gram of matter contains around 1024 protons this leaves us some room for manouver.

But I guess this must constrain the areas of enquiry towards mainstream goals and inevitably collaboration means that more "maverick" scientists get sidelined.
This is what I call 'Corporate Science'. Science by committee consensus seldom produces anything remarkably novel. But it does produce further developments of what were once maverick ideas.

I know Adrian. A very smart young man, but he depends on grant funding too, so maybe that limits his freedom a tiny bit. Though he will be cross if he hears of me saying so.

Staid and conformist, science risks losing its creative spark. Does it need more mavericks, or are they part of the problem? An interesting read.

My substance consists of revealing Your nonsense.
Your posts reveal nothing but negative comments. AFAIK you have never created any comments or objections of scientific or a technical nature. Please try to raise your game at least a little.

You can put as many temperature sensors as you like in an isoperibolic calorimeter. I used to use (now and then) a recirculating reaction-type isoperibolic calorimeter that had a fully analogue control and data-collection system using averaging over about 20 PT-100 probes. Took a while to set it up, but when properly calibrated it could detect the heat from a fart in the next building.

22Passi has been and probably still an ardent and non-critical exceedingly gullible fanclub for Rossi and his shills.
That makes me doubt you ever bothered to read it, especially the comments.
