Games are all around us. We are entertained by games. People often play games with each other. You could even say that games are central part of our lives. Even so, games can be destructive. After all, the most deadly game of all is war. Yes, war…

Are you a betting man? revisited
I was just thinking about this again this morning. What would it take to end the controversy? A friendly bet? Something that would satisfy even the most hard core skeptic? How could you arrange this?
There’s somebody I won’t name who…
Cold Fusion Enigma, Secrets Remain— Fleischmann Pons IV
In the last post of this series, I mentioned the fact that the video Fire from Water was worth watching again and again. It so happens that Miley was in that video, in which is shown from a screenshot here:
As before, you can learn a lot from th…
Rossi’s Petroldragon and Thermal Depolymerization
This is a followup to a post on the subject of Thermal Depolymerization. (TPD) I wanted to go into greater detail about Rossi’s background, with respect to Petroldragon, and the accusations of fraud.
But first, let me relate how I became intere…
E-cat can’t get any respect
What do you say to people who reject something without honestly looking at it?
I doubt that many of the critics at that link have even bothered to examine it with an open mind. They pronounce their judgments like it was an edict from above. &nb…
Lithium ion battery hidden in E-cat to fool everybody?
A simple analysis is attempted here:
First, let’s take a look at the weight of the E-cat before and after the Oct 6th test- from the pdf titled Test of Energy Catalyzer – referenced here before
Weight of E-cat before test: 98 kg after test: 99 kgIf a b…
Cheap power: An overnight revolution — Commentary
By Sterling D. Allan, Pure Energy Systems News
excerpts:
When considering the logarithmically diminished time it takes to achieve 25% market penetration since the automobile was introduced a century ago (it took a century for it to reach 25%), and mor…
Unofficial says "Andy the Grump"
I got the link to this video from the Talk:Energy Catalyzer page on Wikipedia.
Someone (ip address only) put the video up and the above title was the response to it. It wasn’t given much respect. I would hope that they would take down such…
Are we on the Brink of an Energy Revolution?
Andrea Rossi to Build 1MW Power Plant — by Al Fin, Oil Price.com via Real Clear Energy
Key quote:
…want to know if an entire new branch of physics is about to be opened, with all the possibilities for new scientific knowledge and technology which …
Krivit’s claims of failure of the E-cat
I haven’t bothered to read Krivit until this very morning. I have to say that I am shocked.
He claims failure, but I really don’t buy what he says. I’m sure Krivit has far more credentials than I do. What he says may be believed by thos…
Are you a betting man?
As for me, not so much. But I’ve played the markets, and that is a risk taking venture. Perhaps there are those who think that the markets are just a big casino, so, in that case, I’ve done some betting in my time.
With respect to the controversy of…
Rash judgment?
A little about what I’ve been doing today.
After writing about Moonrush, I listened to the Space Show when the guest was Dr. Robert (Bob) Richards, who has an entry in the Lunar X prize competition.
After that, I went back and looked at the E-cat ne…
Occam’s Razor and the E-cat Test of Oct 6th
Occam’s Razor is, as I understand it, a simplicity principle. With respect to explaining something, the principle asserts that the simplest explanation is most likely correct. After writing that, my understanding turns out to be incorrect. …
Better graph showing net energy from E-cat test of Oct. 6, 2011
Peswiki
You can see that the area under the curve for the “Potenza OUT” ( output power) is greater than the area under the “Potenza Resistore” ( power resistor, input power to run the heater) Or input power vs output power. Time shif…
Photo on Facebook shows net energy production from E-cat test of 10/6/11
This corresponds well with what I posted yesterday. A glance at this input v output graph shows that the energy produced is greater than the energy consumed.
Power output exceeds power input = net power gain click on the link to the left in o…
