What due diligence do you think they did? And how do you know? And whose word are we relying on about the need to label the panel with the maker's logo? Yes, I read the peswiki.com statement that NI approved their writeup. Maybe they didn't read it as carefully as they should have. Peswiki.com also endorses, promotes and tries to actually raise funds for UFO stories, conspiracies, and free energy perpetual motion schemes that can't possibly be anything other than rank scams. They (and Sterling Allan and Hank Mills) are not usually a reliable source of information. If the contract with NI is the best available evidence that Rossi's kludge works, that's a pretty sad commentary. On the other hand, if NI conducted independent tests of it, that would be very interesting. However, nothing I read remotely suggests that.
