They're just Slashdot-like websites that use the same code and theme. Imitation being the sincerest form of flattery and such...

Yeah, well, what if you don't have an email address?

Another quote about the generator, from the same page:

Probably the biggest opening for skeptics will be the continually running genset that is probably rated for 500 kW (my guess), and appears to have been connected by cables to the E-Cat. "Where's the mystery?" So knock yourselves out, skeptics. It's the customer who has to be happy, and apparently this one was satisfied that those cables were not contributing to the 470 kW output during self-sustaining mode.

This is the gold: (emphasis mine)

Power for start-up (resistive coils that provided heat to the reaction chambers) was provided by the large and loud genset (was making all the noise) you see that is nearly as large as the small shipping container in which the 1 MW E-Cat plant was arranged. Once the reaction chambers got up to temperature, they were maintained by the heat produced by the reaction. I'm not sure why they kept the generator running after that, but I would guess it was for back-up or safety. I'm sure the engineers testing the system made sure what the power levels were at all times.

I don't think I have to explain why I emphasized that part :-)

The funny thing about science is that you can do experiments to see who's right. You don't have to endlessly debate stuff.

GP states many experimental observations that directly contradict your hypotheses. Now you can whine about condescension, or man up and rethink them.

They're paying with 4 $3 bills and 50 cents.

Actually they're paying with 4 $3 bills and 50 cents.

I think they'll just make an FAQ with about 15 questions and answers, which should answer almost all questions the students are expected to have.

So, how was this intelligence created?

Maybe it means that if nobody pays them for a license, they won't pay the USPTO, and won't get the patent. It's like the domain-tasting spammers used to do, except with patents.

That's quite innovative... maybe they should get a patent.

It's a tree. Amazon. Tree.

Amazon's chart is a binary tree, Facebook's is a "social network", Apple is the Cult of Jobs, and Google's chart is very complicated, I guess the number of parent nodes determines the EmployeeRank :-)

This interactive pet rock might be useful for treatment of emotionally problematic people. People you wouldn't necessarily trust with a cat.

If the patient messes up with the robot, you can just reset its emotional state, and try again. A real pet could be dead or traumatized.
