He does have a solid track record in catalysis-related work, with the biofuels Diesel engines. Also some disasters, but that is inevitable. There is no success without failure. I do not know if there is method to his madness or whether he works on pure intuition. Ed Storms has the impression that Rossi works intuitively and cannot file a good patent because he does not know on a deep, generalized level, how the reactors work. Mike Melich says Rossi "thinks" by working with his hands, the way a gifted artist does. Artists do not express their idea in words but in the objects they create. There is nothing wrong or un-intellectual about this mode of expression, unless you think Auguste Rodin was a simpleton. On the subject of disastrous failure, Krivit reports that Russ George is in deep trouble: http://news.newenergytimes.net/2013/04/08/u-s-businessman-takes-first-nation-people-for-2-5-million/ http://news.newenergytimes.net/2013/04/10/canadian-environmental-authorities-seize-evidence-from-georges-offices/ I hope this is not true but it would not shock me if it is. Krivit also reported on the publication of this paper, which he did not name: J. Appl. Phys. *112*, 083510 (2012); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4759166<http://link.aip.org/link/doi/10.1063/1.4759166> (*6 pages*) - Jed
