/snip/ It is either minor confusion or a minor lie. Minor compared to the usual level of chaos that Rossi sows when he opens his mouth. This incident sent AussiGuy into a tizzy. I told him I do not understand why, because anyone who has dealt with Rossi knows he does this kind of thing several times a day. Look at the list of contradictions that Akira and I ferreted out: /snip/
What I perceived from Aussie Guy was that he felt scammed. Regardless of any alleged past transgressions, it must such to feel like you're on the receiving end. I think he genuinely believes in the technology, and thought he was on the brink of making a fortune from Rossi's product. We don't know what person communications transpired between them, but I think his impression of BBB customer delivery consisted of more than a single affirmative on Rossi's blog. He was getting some info "from the horse's mouth." His reaction was that of someone betrayed. It doesn't seem all black-and-white.

Please enlighten those of us who do not speak Italian. You can see the 1MW plant. Right. Rossi is standing in front of it. I've contacted the author: the video footage was taken in the [first days of November] Rossi said that the 1MW plat was gone before 30 October. Okay, so he wasn't hiding the fact that the reactor was still sitting there. He wasn't pretending he had shipped it. On his blog he said he had shipped it, but that's not true. So why is this such a big deal? Was it reported in the mass media that he claimed it was shipped? Has his customer accused him of not shipping in violation of contract?

He often changes his tune. Are we agreed on that yet? Anyone who doubts should please review that list. Since we established that nearly a year ago, I think it is time to move on. Accept Rossi for who and what he is. Try to make sense of his claims based mainly on independent observations and replications, and on other people's work, such as Piantelli's. Stop carrying on about his personality! Grow up. He is not going to change. He will not publish a paper. He will not explain anything. He will never allow tests. He said he never will, and he meant it. He does not change his mind about stuff like this. - Jed
