All the news reports indicated that the meeting was Friday night ... long
over by now.  But no updates.

I got there via google, but now that link takes me  to a
"doteasy" site.
I read a few more pages, and discovered that due to disputes with
Aboriginal groups, all [nearly all?] access to the lake has been cut
off.

http://www.lakeeyreyc.com/
News : Boating no longer allowed on
Lake Eyre! 
A spanner has been thrown into the works by
National Parks refusal to give permission for us to sail on Lake Eyre
until they have obtained the OK from the native title claimants. From all
reports it appears National Parks are enjoying the opportunity to prevent
us from recreating in their park and are in no hurry to resolve the
issue. This process could take years and means that realistically
speaking the only way to boat on Lake Eyre this year will be by
committing an illegal act and given the anger in our membership this may
happen. 
...
It appears the South Australian Government are
happy to remove our common law right to access and boat on a navigable
waterway. We find this amazing given that there is no legal difference
between our sailing territory and the River Murray. As Indigenous
Australians lived alongside every waterway in the country will your
favorite boating place be next? Unfortunately we cannot match the free
legal services the complainants have at their disposal so all we can do
is make the public aware of the erosion of the right to recreate in a
National Park in an environmentally sustainable way.

Note, this lake is a salt lake and only has water in it after a

Well, it does end :
Since the Herald won't say it, The Register will: do
not invest any money in E-cat until someone can reproduce the
experiment and explain the mechanism by which the fusion takes place, to
the satisfaction of the scientific journals. Or until Smith signs a

If Dick Smith comes out of his sort of semi retirement, puts his money, 
influence and passion behind the E-Cat, Aussie will become a E-Cat hotbed.

Dick Smith is legendary. If he gets behind Rossi, it will make our 
efforts seem like child's play. He can open doors at any level of 
industry or government. He is not afraid to back the underdog, attach 
the status quo and to "have a go mate". With this getting into the SMH 
and Dick Smith sending this engineer to Rossi, there is more here than 
just a bet. You can be sure of that.

We are not directly involved but suspect some of our work has leaked a 
bit. There have been a few probing emails as of late. This group could 
be the source or it could be other groups that are starting to form. The 
market size and variety is HUGH. FPE devices will completely reshape how 
we generate and use energy. Plenty of room for many players. I'm sure 
Dick Smith would love to have a FPE powered chopper with unlimited 
range. 2012 will be the year that the world wakes up to FPE devices. 
2013 will see massive development. By 2015 the use of FPE devises will 
be widespread and will be the preferred power source. Off the shelf CHP 
FPE powered generators, running domestic homes and commercial offices 
will be common place. Every man and his dog will be involved in selling 
and installing domestic and commercial CHP systems. There will be a 
massive waiting period. Many HVAC people that are struggling to make a 
buck today will become very rich. Despite all this, the Arctic Ice Cap 
will melt out in the summer of 2015. Methane release into the Arctic 
atmosphere will massively accelerate. GW will get a steroid like boost. 
We will have a tool to fix it but it may be too late to stop it. FPE 
devices will help to reduce the worst effects and will save many lives. 
Rossi will never get a Nobel. Others, who finally figure out what is 
going on will. Direct FPE to electrical generation will happen. Yes all 
this by the end of 2015.

Seriously, for whatever reason, I have found that Aussies are at least 27.2
times more likely to be interested in fringe energy technologies, per
capita, than any other country (there aren't many of them for one thing). 

This is not limited to LENR by any means. They also seem to have at a least
54.4 times greater appreciation (or tolerance) for Randy Mills. 

But that was B.R. (before Rossi).

This doesn't make sense.  Why would Rossi care about $200K?  He already
said he doesn't want to do any more tests.  And he claims he has a more
than $20 million client!   Maybe these folks have not been following
Rossi's blog, LOL.
