LENR Real; Rossi and Defkalion Dubious

[Note for new readers: We performed extensive reporting and videotaped documentation on the Rossi Energy Catalyzer topic in 2011. Please see http://rossiportal.com/

Low-energy nuclear reactions are certainly real, I have investigated and written about this research for the last twelve years. Recently I gave an interview for the U.S. intelligence community on LENR.

The Rossi and Defkalion claims, however, are dubious.

One of Rossi’s biggest supporters, Edmund Storms, thinks that Rossi faked it – but only once.

Beyond the trivial puffs of steam coming out of the device, many New Energy Times readers think Rossi’s trick in his first design was obvious: he designed it to allow for unvaporized water to flow out the top of the E-Cat, down through the opaque hose and into the hidden wall drain. Therefore, our readers didn’t even pay attention to Rossi’s second design.

The videotape I shot of Rossi’s device is very hard to argue with.

The scientific analysis in our subsequent 200-page report is very difficult to argue with as well.

Enthusiasm for LENR is entirely appropriate and we are about to enter a wild period in the LENR field. Wisdom and judiciousness by fans and investors will never be more crucial.
