I think there is a consensus that Rossi was the control mechanism for his earlier devices. If this is the situation, he will not be able to leave for any extended length of time. The self sustaining mode, if that is what they witnessed, will require careful control if operated for very long. I find it hard to accept the definition of self sustaining mode if any form of power is being applied during this period. It appears to be more of a let it run until it dies mode that I have seen supported.

Indeed, that makes no sense at all. But what you are describing did not happen. Rossi did a convincing demo. He stopped because he and the observers needed to get some sleep. That's what Lewan and the others told me. The demo that Nelson saw was not convincing, at least to Nelson: > According to Nelson, a NASA engineer who investigates low-energy nuclear reactions and space applications, Rossi did not run his demonstration long enough to prove his extraordinary claim. Nelson wanted to see a longer demo. Apparently he would have been ble to do without sleep, or would have stood shifts with a olleague. Presumably, Rossi, who wants to make money, knew that the bserver, or one of the observers, was a NASA engineer. To do a demo for somebody like Nelson, who, if convinced, might run ack to Washington and recommend that his bosses spend a couple of illion to get hold of the amazing device, it seems like human ature to put on the best show possible, but Rossi could not be othered. Strange.
