Dear Horace,
Even if you concur with Storms that the WL theory "suffers from so many
basic problems," you have every right to discuss the merits or lack thereof
of any theory (WL, Storms/Scanlan, or your own) without being subject to
intimidation to suppress discussion.
Is Storms intimidating you? In my opinion, yes. Did you feel the need to
defend yourself to him? Apparently so.
As far as I know, only open science and open discussion is the to sort
these things out, not suppression.
Dear Ed,
I bring the theoretical ideas of Lewis Larsen (later developed with the
help of Allan Widom and Yogendra Srivastava) because it is the first theory
that I see that has - in my opinion - a high probability of explaining most
of the LENR experimental phenomena. Of course, I could be wrong and I'm
completely willing to be wrong.
You and I have disagreed on this matter for several years now and, as you
know, I have been intransigent in my view, despite your numerous attempts
to discourage me and New Energy Times from paying attention to it.
But if WL is as bad as you allege, it will die on its own accord and nobody
will pay any attention to it. It needs no help from you to discourage me,
Horace, or the CMNS field from talking about it.
Steve

[STORMS] As for W&L, this theory suffers from so many basic problems, in
addition to the one you noted, I'm at a loss as to why it is even discussed.
[HEFFNER] I didn't bring it up. I merely responded to other posters on
vortex-l, especially Steve Krivit...I looked back at the thread and see it
was begun with a question directed at me by Steve Krivit. The thread can be
viewed from the beginning here:

[STORMS] "Yes I know. I should have said I'm at a loss as to why Krivit
brings this up.
