Calorimetry is very important for LENR but is a means not aim and
when things will go well we will need simple, rustic calorimetry.
Peter, I hope you realize that the Atwater factors are far from
simple, and are a reason why blind insistence on "a calorie is a
calorie" is essentially ignorant. Atwater factors were developed from
study about a century ago, I don't know if that's been updated, and
the problem is that the usability of a food is not only a
characteristic of the food, it also is an interaction between a food,
the diet, and the particular state of the individual's metabolism.
Basically, the human body is not a bomb calorimeter!
