I have some concerns about his devices, because Celani detected a burst of radioactivity and because during the 18-hour test it seemed to produce a great deal of heat for a while. Everything I have seen points to Defkalion being far ahead of Rossi. He invented the core technology, and Defkalion is paying him a great deal of money for the license. As they should! But they licensed the technology some years ago and they have pulled far ahead of him in practical applications. The built-in calorimetry in their computerized prototypes (described above) and the test equipment at the Greek regulatory agencies is far better than anything Rossi uses. This sort of thing has often happened in the history of technology. For example, Shockley was soon left behind in semiconductor research, and never made an important contribution after the first one. - Jed
