Very well said. Race car driving truly is harder than simply driving in a circle! Yet the issue with CF / LENR does not appear to be the high vacuum, the welding, clean environment, or mass spectrometer usage.
The latter… -

You only need more repeats if you don't believe, and no matter how many repeats you do, you won't convert a lot of folks. The… -

Like (Post)SOT: Mizuno took apart a reactor working spectacularly and, if I understood correctly, consistently? To analyze the flippin' mesh! Seriously? What a totally daft thing to do before a number of people and/or organizations had fully examined and… -

PostJed,
If you have a moment, can you clarify what you mean by 30W? Is it that you are feeding in 250W and getting 280W "worth" of heat out?
It is unfortunate that there is no longer an operating device with the COP and power reported; that obviously… -

If the original result is real but a series of replications fail, then to not have independent observers (including skeptics and non-skeptics) observe and thoroughly document any ongoing phenomenon would be tragic. While many… -

I think that hardly matters any more. While exact statistics are not available for Google's search traffic, all the estimates I see are well over 10^9 (one billion) searches per day. Google can put anything they want in the cute… -

The difference, IMO, is that Dr. Mizuno is claiming more than a kilowatt of heat which is unaccounted for, not peaks on particular spectra or 8 watts in place of 7.5.
Anyone, even me, can understand that if you get a sustained… -

Alan,
This is not entirely off-topic, if google guys are maybe to be asked to review it.
Obviously, if R19 or R20 works as stated either one could be independently tested and if found to work this would be a world-changing… -

Jed,
Can you answer if Mizuno can / has reproduced his R19 or R20 reactions successfully himself? By reproduced, I mean by a second reactor or a complete tear down and setup of the same reactor, with new fuel/meshes invovled?… -

Yes, this is an interesting train of thought (and a bit worrisome) about this whole event. I am not implying anything, just that I also do not understand the logic how this is unfolding.

Whilst I understand that point of view, which is logical, I'd suggest an alternate way forward, given that analysis.
