If they do hear about him they will dismiss him instantly as a fraud. They will not bother to run a story. No one outside of a small number of cold fusion aficionados takes these reports seriously. Besides, we have so much political opposition already, a little extra helping will not matter. Maybe if he actually makes and installs a 1 MW reactor, people will start to take notice, but not the the mass media. They'll dismiss it as a fraud without bothering to check. Rossi thinks the 1 MW reactor will give him credibility, but I do not think so. He would gain much more credibility if he would only allow the NRL to test his machine, but I doubt that will happen. I do not understand why, but he does not want more independent tests of his machine. It sure makes him look bad, doesn't it? I cannot persuade him to do anything. Neither I nor anyone else seems to have any influence over him. He politely refuses to consider any suggestions. - Jed
