Re: [Vo]: Quantum Thermodynamics

Paul, you seem to think that just because you have used a computer modelling 
program (LT Spice) that it's predictions are necessarily reality. If the 
initial assumptions and parameters that were modelled and programmed in are 
in error it won't be of much use to help us in the area we are looking at. 
Your EE friends have never, in a real situation, needed to know or even been 
able to measure the thermally generated voltage noise when there is *no* 
current of any description, AC or DC, passing though the resistor. Ideally, 
it could be measured, if it exists, but in the real world there is no ideal 
instrument. I don't care if your EE friends lol at this - that would just 
show they don't fully understand what they are dealing with.  Your point 
about several random sources adding up and "BTW, true voltage noise has no 
upper voltage crest"  yet again sabotages your position. By analogy, looking 
at random thermal molecular vibrations (heat) you might as well say that 
temperature is only a statistical average - that there exists all 
temperatures of particles in the spoon - that some in a room temperature 
teaspoon are at a notional 5,000,000 degreesC. Just try using this spoon to 
boil a cuppa though - you'll have a bloody long wait for your tea if you 
wait for a number of random sources to align and give you useable heat above 
ambient temperature.
   Let's cut to the chase. Build one of these diode/resistor/LED devices 
that unequivocally generates significant, useable cohered output - such as 
photons of a frequency and magnitude sufficient to cause a PV cell to 
generate, say, 1  continuous watt  using only ambient room temperature heat 
without a lower temperature sink (to give the difference in energy levels 
that is essential to create work) and I will give you £1,000. Of course once 
you have done this, then the world will also beat a path to your door but I 
suspect that hell will freeze over first. You are one amongst countless free 
energy dreamers - they failed - you will fail too. Your hand waving when 
pinned down is nowhere near as impressive as such masters of the art as 
Joseph Newman and Dennis Lee or Joe Champion. BTW, I really think people who 
use the glass half full/empty "witticism" are half wits.

P.S. Cold fusion is nothing like the free energy quest that has deluded many 
thousands (however, I'm still hoping Terry Blanton's pet magmo project might 
work!). CF almost certainly generates energy by converting mass into energy, 
just in a different situation with different conditions to classic fusion 
and fission.
