From Daniel: Alright, if Defkalion cannot answer for themselves, I am not going to do it anymore for free. I realize I'm probably misinterpreting the intent of your message, but the implication I'm making is that you may have been a paid shill for Defkalion. Needless to say, I do not believe that for one second. I don't believe English is your primary language so one must make allowances for that. FWIW, your English is pretty damned good. You recently asked me if why I seem to be talking back to you at you, as if you have no credibility or experience in cold fusion. Actually, It's quite likely that you have more CF knowledge than I. I'm not a scientist nor a CF researcher. I don't work for a patent office, like you do, either. I'm Just an interested observer with a plethora of eclectic and eccentric interests that occasionally causes me to focus in on this controversial matter. CF LENR is a fascinating subject. It's as much a sociological/political phenomenon as it is a scientific investigation in-progress. The politics involved are utterly fascinating... and unfortunately occasionally disgusting. What can I say. I'm hooked. Sometimes it's better that watching another episode of Game of Thrones. Who the hell is Mr. Martin going to kill off in this episode! Oh No! Not him!!! ;-) Let me try to conclude on a personal observation I've made concerning my own behavior actions. I have, at times, made excuses for the behavior actions others and the organizations they might run where excuses I later came to realize were not warranted. I did so because I believed in them or WANTED to believe in them and their organizations - to the point that I had acquired an almost religious-like faith in them - as if they could never do no wrong. One of the truths I've had to learn (a truth I'm STILL in the process of learning) is that most people... ALL people for that matter, are only human. To be human is to occasionally error. There is no fault in that. But as Scotty once said in one of the original Star Trek episodes: Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Who knows, perhaps DGT can redeem themselves. I'm cool with that. We'll see. PS: I hope you continue to make contributions. Having a dedicated individual like you on this list who works for the patent office can be insightful for the insights gleaned. Regards Steven Vincent Johnson svjart.orionworks.com

Whois tells me they are hosted here: http://www.liquidweb.com/web-hosting/ The most expensive plan is $40 a month. I doubt they are so broke they can't even pay that. But who knows. They are not good at paying bills. The domain registry expires in 2016. The ISP Knowledge Base says: *Shared Hosting Disadvantages*: If the account bandwidth limit is exceeded the account is suspended until the end of the month, or until the account is upgraded. Liquid Web will not install 3rd party applications or scripts that require root level configurations, as the stability of the server could be affected. Because of the number of users all utilizing the same server Liquid Web is very proactive at suspending accounts that overload the server. Below is a small excerpt from the Liquid Web Shared Hosting Terms of Service covering limitations of resource usage: Limitations on Use*:* Any account using 15% or more of the server CPU or memory can be suspended and/or terminated. Any account that uses excessive amounts of bandwidth can and will be subjected to bandwidth throttling. I doubt they are getting a lot of traffic. The last I checked, they had only one page. - Jed

It is displaying /cgi-sys/suspendedpage.cgi, which is built into the ISP file structure. Some person or some event at the ISP triggered the redirect. It could be the files are corrupt or were accidentally erased, or some other temporary problem. It is not a server problem.

Yes, and you make sure everyone knows and you drive your own conclusion as it can be noticed here: doubt they are getting a lot of traffic. The last I checked, they had only one page. One assumption is, you think the only thing they have host is that page. There are other assumptions. like they got a DDOS attack. Only assumptions. Or, they have investors, but are just working on a secured line with their costumers, so they abandoned the page.

What's up with you, Rocha? Are you an investor in DGT? You are acting like a complete jack-ass to Rothwell.

Fair enough. As long as you have no financial interest, your opinion is as valid as any other educated observer here, but at least give Rothwell credit for being a top expert, held in high regard on this list - having been involved for several decades with no bias, and having never shown prejudice in the past for companies or inventors who did not deserve the criticism they received.

Re: [Vo]:Defkalion web site account suspended
Being without much money has no relationship to the validity of the engineering or the science of a project. Didn't Rossi sell his house to keep going? Did that low point in the man's financial life invalidate Rossi's project? Didn't people try to starve Rossi out as a business strategy? I am sure that there are people at DGT who have knowledge that will attract development money form many sources. This eventually proved true for Rossi. All the key players at DGT need to do is boil water is the proper way to validate their expertise and the money will come.

Re: [Vo]:Defkalion web site account suspended
Axil-- The fission reactor guys are no different in their skeptopathic bias toward LENR than the hot fusion guys are. They both have cash cows in their barnyard that sadly give only sour milk--if any at all--it may be good for feeding pigs and most of them don't like it because it so sour. But their buddies in the government still support their barnyard business. Duping third world countries and waste management is their latest and last hope to keep the cash flowing. They are stringing it out as long as possible and at the greatest expense. Vitrification of high level radioactive waste at Hanford is a good example--$15Billion and counting--no end in sight. Hanford engineers designed and operated a pilot plant to solidify (calcine) the high level wastes with a projected cost of $26million for a production facility associated with PUREX in the late 1960's. The fission guys in the AEC decided that it was better to spend those $26millions on long lead equipment for the high temperature sodium fast neutron breeder Clinch River reactor. Those components ended up in a storage yard at Hanford and may still be there. That started a trend that it was better to waste money than use it for some good. The trend was needed to keep the nuclear tech guys employed. I would love to debate the waste management issues with Per and the issues associated with the development of new fission reactors. Japan and Germany may have finally gotten it right regarding the desirability of fission reactor energy.
