He was a superb scientist. One of the best of the 19th century. He was also deeply racist, but so were many other people back then. It was a common failing. You should not judge people in the past by the standards of today. Judge… -

They do not discuss this particular issue, but if you think you can explain it, go ahead. I would love to hear your explanation. -

as mere “data fudging.” We do notn mince words: the use of improperly handled scientific data to

I was also amazed. I expect the people at Miura, Mitsubishi and the Japanese government are displeased. You will not hear anything from them. -

Morrison made this point at a conference after Fleischmann presented a paper. Fleischmann responded by showing an oscilloscope trace of the data during the boil off, and he pointed out they have higher resolution computer data.… -

Fraud WAS committed in the aftermath of F&P!
Eugene Mallove (chief editor of MIT at the time) has shown that and became a whistleblower. In short MIT forged their replication efforts and was untruthful in their findings. So yes,… -

1. I have watched it.

3. I have watched actual cold fusion electrolysis cell in boiling conditions (albeit not F&P's)
4. I have spoken with people who saw it.

(Quote from can)
When you turn off the heat, does the waterline go back up to where it was at the start of test? This is what Ascoli has been saying, I think. However, for his hypothesis to be right, the apparent waterline would have to be ~4 times lower… -

Srinivasan got no support from BARC after Iyengar retired from being the director of the Atomic Energy Commission. I do not think Srinivasan did any experiments. If he did, he paid for them himself. I heard that the director who… -

It’s difficult even if you are on the LENR side of things. Experiments have to be designed with control of error sources, and some times this can be a tough cookie. That’s why I personally have always favored transmutations as proof,… -

Screenshot #3 appears to be at a higher angle. If you lower the camera, can you see the waterline? In #2 you can see it. Is the foam so thick by #3 (10 seconds) that you can no longer see the waterline? -

If you cannot do that, you can weight it before and after. That would confirm the final visual estimate of the water level.
I have seen people put the whole experiment on a weight scale. Some experiments cause vibrations that make this… -

I used a steel mesh as the anode and a steel sheet as the cathode. I added about 150 ml tap water and some KOH flakes, then applied electrolysis up to 30V and 10A to quickly heat up the water. It created some foam, but not enough to make a… -

Yup. The purest, boldest example are the concluding remarks in Huizenga's book, points 5 and 6. Here are all 6:

Were the second and third shots taken at about the same time, from different angles?
Did you add surfactants?
You got a lot of foam! -
