History has shown us that it isn't nearly that easy to prove a positive, especially when it is something this controversial. There will always be "experts" who claim that it must be a hoax and that the conditions were not controlled closely enough.

There are way too many organizations, companies, and people claiming that cold fusion, or something that looks like it, is real for this to be dismissed out of hand. And, the number keeps growing.

I've seen the credentials for the physicsits that performed the tests, published the results, and staked their reputations on it. I have not seen yours, nor any evidence to support your claims. So, what makes your claim of a hoax more valid than theirs?

Most of the people claiming that this is a scam have not even read the paper that was published. --- -- Nobody that was present for the tests is claiming that this is a scam. --- -- Six reputable and knowledgeable scientists spent many days testing this device and all of them say this is not a scam. Six knowledgeable scientists that know quite well what happened to Fleischman & Pons were brave enough and felt strongly enough about the tests that they were willing to sign on the bottom line and risk their reputation and livelihood. --- -- The best evidence I have is from the people that were there, saw what was going on, made the measurements, and published their work. Think of this as a court of law. Who is the judge going to trust? Does the just believe the people that were present at the time and took notes and pictures? Or does the judge believe somebody that wasn’t there at the time but says “It isn’t possible”? --- -- In my lifetime, I have heard “it isn’t possible” time after time, only to be shown later that it really was. As a youngster, the inverse square law proved that a “ray gun” wasn’t possible. Then came coherent light and suddenly it was. --- -- Nobody is claiming that they have a “perpetual motion” machine or that it violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics. What they are claiming is that there is a nuclear process that we don’t yet understand. If somebody tries to tell you that we understand all possible nuclear processes, run, don’t walk to the nearest exit.

Back around 1900, there was a NY times editorial. The author did some quick calculations and found that at the current rate of growth of traffic that by the year 1920, the streets of NY would be 6' deep in horse manure. Their solution was that the city needed to hire more people to clean the streets.

You are thinking small. This is not just electricity, This is replacing all oil burning appliances. This is replacing all cooling equipment with e-cat powered absorbtion coolers. This is replacing all heating equipment with e-powered appliances. This is replacing car, truck, ship, locomotive drive trains with e-cat powered devices.This is the navy converting everything to nuclear, from torpedoes and lifeboats on up. This is aircraft with unlimited range. This makes aluminum, concrete, and everything else that is energy intensive much cheaper, which means we will be using a lot more of it. This is a lot bigger than any of us can imagine
