The EMPIRE (Of Oil) STRIKES BACK!
In the last couple of days the ecat world has been brimming over with a reversal of optimism. You'd think after that film posted above, people would be jumping out left right and center saying "hey, looks like LENR is for real," wouldn't you? Well a few of the little guys did, but the big newsfolk went quite the other way.
I checked that Forbes reporter that was so optimistic daily to see if he reported on the film above. I even sent him the link to it a few days ago anonymously because I really wanted to see his response. So did he like it?
Apparently not. He immediately posted this outright crap and then this utter tripe over the last few days instead!
Here's the gist of his new attitude:
Worse, the owner of the Film posted above, Dr. Zawodny, sort of recanted his position too! After his film was a raging success on youtube, hoardes of people said across teh blogosphere that "Nasa endorses LENR" and that must have pissed Zawdony's boss off enough to chew him a new one...
The result is this sad blog post on his personal blog full of corrections to the film that runs at about 5 TIMES as many words as the film.
...Usually when you run a correction for something, 5 times the words is a tad bit... Overkill. For those interested, here's the gist of it:
This is, again, the guy who MADE the film above in my last post, and the following slide presentation:

(That's a great history of LENR/cold fusion for anyone who wants to catch up to the history & science of it.)
Anyway, what a reversal, eh? You can literally point to the moment in time they went from being openly excited, huge advocates of LENR to being pessimistic and overly careful, despite having no reason to do so. Both just in the last few days.
All of this may sound just a little wishy-washy to the ordinary reader, but to a long time Ron Paul supporter this string of events is downright FAMILIAR. It's all too obvious to me that Big Oil has finally started playing this game.
It's time to see someone like Rossi go missing, have a change of heart, get assassinated, or have a Julian Assange-style sex scandal and wind up behind bars.
Jesus Fuck. :throwup:

Here's the gist of his new attitude:
He basically just says that LENR may be a repeatable test that can be done in a lab but he doesn't see any reason to think it has real-world application or promise. (He compares it to laboratory superconductors.)Turncoat at Forbes said:I don’t disagree that there may be some extremely interesting effect these researchers are seeing and that they attribute to what they believe is a low energy nuclear reaction but these researchers are not yet able to reliably reproduce the effect and therefore can’t produce a testable theory that explains the effect they may be observing.

Dr Zawodny said:As for what people are trying to read into this video, specifically my use of the word “demonstrated”, it is my professional opinion that the production of excess energy has been demonstrated when the results of the last 20+ years of experimentation are evaluated. There has been a lot of work done in the past 20+ years. When considered in aggregate I believe excess power has been demonstrated. I did not say, reliable, useful, commercially viable, or controllable. If any of those other terms were applicable I would have used them instead. If anything, it is the lack of a single clear demonstration of reliable, useful, and controllable production of excess power that has held LENR research back. As a non-technical piece aimed at the general public, my limited media training has taught me that less information/detail is generally better than more. I did not produce or direct the video. While I saw the video before it was released, I did not learn of it’s release until the email started pouring in Thursday morning.
There have been many attempts to twist the release of this video into NASA’s support for LENR or as proof that Rossi’s e-cat really works. Many extraordinary claims have been made in 2010. In my scientific opinion, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. I find a distinct absence of the latter. So let me be very clear here. While I personally find sufficient demonstration that LENR effects warrant further investigation, I remain skeptical. Furthermore, I am unaware of any clear and convincing demonstrations of any viable commercial device producing useful amounts of net energy.
