You did read Focardi's comments on the radiation and the transmutations:
"/*So, if gamma [radiation] is emitted in one direction, the nickel goes
in the opposite direction, like a cannon recoiling when it is fired.
Therefore nickel releases energy into the medium. And so does gamma — I
mean that gamma, when it interacts, gives off its energy. But nickel
does this in its immediate surroundings, so it does not travel very far.
Thus, the excess energy in the copper -- copper, I’m speaking about
copper -- is distributed to the medium, and the temperature of the
medium rises, and this facilitates further problems, to the point that,
once the process is primed, it keeps on going in like manner, and what
happens is that nickel is turned into copper. In fact, we analyzed the
material after it had been working for a long time and found copper in
it. We went to Padova, where they have the appropriate instrument: we
found copper. Copper has two isotopes, the ratio between the two is not
in the concentration found in Nature, so we are not dealing with junk
copper which has been added, it was produced by us in this manner.
Therefore, we produced energy, we produced copper, and got to...*/"
As for repeatability, I have no problems with what Rossi and Focardi
have achieved. If Rossi can get his reactor to fire up, he can teach me.
I learn fast. This is almost like saying the small and hand made motors
on the first Wright Flyer were not as reliable as a commercial steam
engine of the same era. Of course not but what a difference when the
Flyer's motors fired into life and the aircraft lifted off the ground.
Never seen a steam engine do that. Then there is the scale of the
development funds. Rossi claims to have spent over EUR1,000,000 of his
own money on this so far. That would probably only pay for a good
piss-up for the hot fusion guys and a new coat of paint.

Thank you. I have seen this before, but as an italian video with
english subtitles on youtube.
There is something that most coldfusion researchers say and Focardi
says it too:
He says, the "hot fusion guys" have not got /any/ results, but he has.
I believe this is a false exaggeration and a physics professor should
not say this.
It is *untrue*.
If any cold fusion reseacher could present the results of hot
fusionists it would be a worldwide sensation.
Of course the hot fusionists have /repeatable/ results in form of
excess energy and nuclear reaction products and radiation. They get
this for some millseconds at best, but/repeatable/.
What they dont have, is a sustained reaction and they have not reached
an energetic breakeven point.
But if any CF researcher could present results as the hot fusionists
already have, the reality of CF where already proven and accepted by
mainstream.
