It does strike me as just a tad obsessive to meticulously focus on Rossi's Chiwawa and Shetland Pony demonstrations, which were nothing more than trade shows - and then treat them as if they were valid scientific experiments. No wonder skeptics have found fault with them.
Certainly, we would all love to see more rigorous experimental tests performed for which we in the Peanut Gallery would get our hands on. Jed has sed this, and so has Abd. No one disputes this. However, Rossi has a different perspective on the matter, and there isn't much we can do about it except complain and/or find fault with Rossi's occasional carnival-like behavior. Regarding on-going criticism, I'm am sometimes left speculating that certain skeptics may have deliberately chosen to retaliate by trying to goad Rossi into revealing more of his eCat secrets - by implying this or that about his work. Who knows. I dunno. I still suspect there probably is something genuine going on here. Maybe even enuf to commercialize. I'm just not convinced that everything will be revealed to everyone's satisfaction when October rolls by. On that point, I'm still willing to cut Rossi additional slack if there is sufficient evidence to suggest the fact that he's on to something. The fact that two universities seem to think there is something to Rossi's claims gives me hope. Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
