I intended to tell that I think he was convinced that the steam was dry. I have met Focardi several times and he seems a very nice gentleman. His association with Rossi is a very complicated problem (I tell this as a friend of Piantelli, Focardi has worked many years with him.)
As regarding logical fallacies as - not the case here- ad hominem attack, appeal to authority and all the other, I study them, but don't practice them. If the Rossi ECat has holes or really works well- you and, hopefully I- will see later this year. I am optimist because I know with certainty that Piantelli's Ni-H cell works reproducibly. Why should Rossi's NOT work? But I don't want to argue. On Thu, Feb 10, 2011 at 10:05 PM, Terry Blanton <hohlr...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Thu, Feb 10, 2011 at 2:46 PM, Stephen A.
