To me, "massive amounts of energy" refers to energy normalized to the mass of starting materials. For example, 50 MJ from a few grams of cathode material plus water. That has definitely been confirmed. It is what we usually talk about in this field. The energy far exceeds the limits of chemistry. The "commercial" levels of heat reportedly produced by Rossi are not massive. Not by commercial standards. They are ordinary: 12 kW continuing for several hours, or 500 kW running for about a day. If Rossi had produced 200 MW, *that* would be massive. I quibble with some of the other assertions in this message, but I will not go into detail. I think many claims are better established than Lomax thinks they are. - Jed
