Peter left out one minor detail... The purpose of a scam is to make money at other people's expense... If the 1MW demo fails, nobody gets paid, and Rossi has just FLUSHED his entire net worth down the drain.
Peter, answer the question as to why Rossi would flush his money down the drain. He had enough money prior to the E-Cat to live very comfortably for the rest of his life... so why risk your entire future by starting a scam, and then doing a demo that can't work and will kill all interest before you get oodles of $? I doubt it’s a scam, but it most certainly can be that because of poor testing procedures, Rossi has tricked himself into believing that this is real, and he has been so convinced of that that he feels he doesn't need to do meticulous testing... -Mark -----Original Message----- From: Peter Heckert [mailto:peter.heck...@arcor.de] Sent: Monday, October 17, 2011 9:51 AM To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: Re: [Vo]:Forbes weighs in on the controversial Rossi's eCat phenomenon Am 17.10.2011 18:35, schrieb OrionWorks - Steven V Johnson: > Personally, I think it is ludicrous to assume Oct. 28 is the "big day" > for humanity.

If its a scam, there is a next logical step: It will fail and they will have somebody guilty for it. There are enough snakes and imbeciles. Everything is prepared ;-)
