I suppose the archives of this mailing list will be a mine-field for them. It would be nice if the older stuff were easier to get at in a search engine (rather than having to download in compressed form). Eric Absolutely! You should get Jed to host it or something.

Re: [Vo]:Digital Journal reports on Industrial Heat deal with Rossi
Eric, your point is well taken. Very little IP can now be patented and defended. The ideas have either been described in rejected patents or they have been described in public. Any attempts made now to get a patent would only make the lawyers rich. Most of the patents presently granted also have very limited value, other than as comfort food. The important patent will result from correctly understanding the mechanism and applying it in the most effect way. The resulting recipe will be so good that no other improvement would be possible. Right now all the recipes are so poor, they could easily be improved, thereby making them irrelevant. The game can still be won, but not by the way it is presently being played.

Re: [Vo]:Digital Journal reports on Industrial Heat deal with Rossi
That's just a copy of the press release. Anyone else think Darden and Cherokee may have been conned by Rossi? I notice their scientific evidence is the previously disputed report from 2013.

RE: [Vo]:Digital Journal reports on Industrial Heat deal with Rossi
From: Analog Fan Anyone else think Darden and Cherokee may have been conned by Rossi? I notice their scientific evidence is the previously disputed report from 2013. AFAIK - there is no evidence that Rossi was involved at all. He sold the US license for his technology some time ago to Ampenergo, who then sold to Industrial Heating. Of course the royalties to Rossi which were in the original deal would still be there. Ampenergo could have determined that there was nothing which they could move forward with the capital they have available - and decided to get out with some gain. That is the big unanswered question which I have: why did Ampenergo unload? It would be great to hear something from Craig Cassarino on the underlying rationale for this transaction.

Following the buck, as they say ... there could be an angle which concerns getting the most out of former DoE ties. They may want to use all their connections, but cannot do so without the taint of insider dealing under the old brand. Just sayin'

Re: [Vo]:Digital Journal reports on Industrial Heat deal with Rossi
One of the first comments on 22Passi years ago was that the Rossi reactor was already on a USN ship. Maybe yes?

Well, you do not have to be John Grisham to realize the whole brownfield thing is chock-full of hidden value ... and to piggyback the kind of RD that would otherwise raise a political stink with big oil and big science - onto a brownfield deal - that could be the only way to get tax dollars into play. Rather brilliant, I'd say.
Re: [Vo]:Digital Journal reports on Industrial Heat deal with Rossi
After all, even NASA is openly discussing it. DoD has to have at least a 3 year head start. And how long has the Naval Labs known?
Re: [Vo]:Digital Journal reports on Industrial Heat deal with Rossi
Stephen Coonts' America gives an idea of how far ahead naval tech is above what is openly known. He's the new Clancy.

But that could be giving them more credit than they deserve. They're probably not that smart, and Rickover is long gone. After all, they shut down SPAWAR and I don't see it as a diversionary tactic to hide a project which is going black, but who knows ... maybe that is what it was.

RE: [Vo]:Digital Journal reports on Industrial Heat deal with Rossi
-Original Message- From: Terry Blanton Going black or project completed? My opinion on Pentagon agility and brain-power - as it applies to advanced technology is that yes, they can unbloat and do that kind of thing rapidly on the rare occasion when it is given the highest priority with little disagreement at the top. But otherwise, they probably miss more opportunities than they steal. One dense general or tanked admiral can topple any brilliant advanced program, and there are dozens of each who oppose LERN. The one successful project category in recent years that has surprised everyone in how fast, how well, and how cost efficiently it was pulled off is the unmanned drone category. LENR of course is a perfect fit for that. Watch the NOVA documentary to find that the way it got off the ground rapidly was because a few private individuals were able to move it along outside the bureaucracy at the important early stages and then they got boosted by DARPA funds. Boeing and LM come in after the table has been set. One way LENR could have gotten enough high quality attention to have been already developed to a useful stage for drones would be if someone with DARPA connections had seen a relevant demo - say the Jansson thruster demo at Rowan State U, since Rossi probably came along too late - and then pretty much borrowed the technology. Or else Mills has had something under wraps in the back room at Cranberry for a long time, who knows? Makes sense. Maybe RM's paranoia is not as irrational as it seems and he has been in Sam's back pocket for all these frustrating years?
