In the recommendation field I selected a low level for viability. I went ahead because this is merely an opportunity to "pitch" the idea "at one of our other Future Energy events in New York, Boston, and Silicon Valley." If George wants to pitch, I say give him a chance. His ideas will have to stand on their own merit. If he has no good data, he will be ignored. It is not as if I am a member of a funding committee and I just handed him $1 million for a project sight unseen. I'm only saying, "give the man a chance to present at a conference." I sincerely believe that whatever he has, it probably has more merit than ITER. - Jed
