Dave,
Good call on the metal screening. I'll tell Harry to call off the mutant and
ill-tempered sea bass :)
I started out this morning very gung-ho about it all, and as the day has
progressed, and I read more peripheral material, I ended up with more open
questions than answers. I think of myself as open-minded but strongly analytic
too. I have been running with the Woodward crowd for over 15 years, and if that
isn't fringe and speculative physics, I don't know what is.
I couldn't put a number on how convinced I am. It's not 0% and neither is it
100%. Let's say I'm 50/50 for now. The fence is uncomfortable, but at least a
path to the resolution of open issues appears to exist. I can't say fairer than
that. If I have an agenda, I'd describe it as the fervent desire for this thing
to work!
Best, Andrew

The ECAT is made of metal if I recall correctly which would not allow RF to
penetrate to activate the resistor antennas. Some might be able to follow the
wiring into the device, but the level would have to be quite large which would
most likely demolish the instrument readings.
Andrew, are you approaching this from the point of view of a skeptic that
absolutely does not believe that the ECAT works? If so, I can understand why
you are stretching so far. Could you be convinced that Rossi actually has a
working device?

The remaining "output hoax" possibility is beamed RF into the "antenna
resistors". Now, I do realise that this entails Prof. Levi crawling around in
the rafters like Quasimodo...LOL. No, I am inclined to say that the input side
is where attention needs to be focussed. There's a black box there - the
waveform generator - that's off limits.

You definitely should drop any reference to powerful lasers. Can you
imagine the liability that Rossi would face when reflections or direct path
radiation caused serious injuries? This is far outside the realm of reality.
The input questions are much more relevant, and I suspect that they can be
set aside with the proper scrutiny.

Hey, I admit that's a bit far out. But lasers can be straightforwardly
coerced into producing something that's not a spot, you know.
If there's foul play, my money is on the input side, frankly.

And, of course, the reason that they misread the instruments was that
they were all blinded by the high power IR. Give me a break.

Mr. Gibbs, welcome to our world.
Andrew, infrared lasers? Really.
Okay, somehow these scientists missed the hidden CO2 laser which would
create spot heating of the test device.
:-)
