Motto
You must take action now that will move you towards your goals. Develop a sense of urgency in your life. (Les Brown)
This is not an advice that brings you a lot of happiness; following it leads both
to effectiveness and to blunders. It is not a good (life)strategy to sacrifice the important things for the urgent ones, however sometimes the circumstances are forcing you to appreciate speed, urgency, immediacy, "instant" more than other, higher, deeper, more permanent values and virtues. I have learned that 80% of all requests are fulfilled immediately or never. One of my slogans was always
"Bis dat qui cito dat" ("he gives twice who gives promptly")- see the QUI CITO newsletter on my blog.
The slogan is not in harmony with what happened in the history of Cold Fusion
and what happens now in LENR- there patience and ability to regenerate th dead hopes- rather large scale production of Phoenix Birds are the most desired qualities. Things, for LENR, are going slowly like a snail on a slope- this is the suggestive metaphor used by Russ George in a fine cold fusion-in-context paper on his Atom Ecology blog: http://atom-ecology.russgeorge.net/2014/12/11/we-are-as-snail-on-a-slope/
Actually, the problem is worse- the slope is coated with coarse emery paper and there are some special obstacles for our poor gastropode.
My, possibly not realistic, sense of urgency has determined me to develop a too forward looking vision of LENR- LENR+. Other colleagues think we can find the truth in already done experiments and that first we have to explore the original PdD scientifically in its deepest detail in order to understand exactly what happens there and only after that - in complete safety, to progress systematically, step by step
toward applications.
This being given as the dominant ideology, for me the most urgent task is to get LENR+, Rossi and /or DGT should demonstrate beyond any doubt, including the most pathologically irrational skepticism, that it works, works well.. This is what I hope and again, I need dangerously and painfully much patience p
in disharmony with my overly mature age.
Perhaps LENR as science-technology-business could learn from the experience of the best; one of the greatest success stories is that of Google - the company that has contributed so much to the solution of information transport and transfer I apologize
to repeat that everything that happens is transport, transfer and transformation of matter, energy and information., in infinite forms. The basic truth is:
INEXISTENCE IS EXISTENCE IN MOTION" as I wrote to Albert Einstein, Princeton Univ. in 1953 but my letter did not went through. Uncle Albert has demonstrated the equivalence of mass and energy - these are bound by the well known equation
E=mc2, however the equivalence and synergy of information and energy still is missing such a fine, expressive equation. We don't know E= f(i). This includes the vital connection between human creativity and energy, the connection that transforms weak LENR in the super-strong LENR+. I will ask you, first of all AXIL
for help.
Google can inspire LENR as being a good example. See please and read with envy: "The Google Way of Attacking Problems" by Greg Satell
Actually Rossi never says much or says completely and I understand his reasons but he likes to communicate.
Anyway he has also told today:
The future of LENR is not what it used to be. A list of the Fundamental Synergies.

I can declare that: "Ich bin ein Googler" have discovered their first paper in 1999 and have predicted in those Alta Vista times, that they will be the great winners in Web-search. From all men called Peter Gluck, the standard Google address belongs to me despite the fact that some of my namesakes- as the greatly successful US architect from GLUCK+ is more famous than me.

Probably the paper is a bit idealized and schematic but definitely interesting and inspiring. It is about the company culture of Google: oriented toward problem solving, people proud to extremely difficult unique jobs and tasks, people "living" what they do, very deeply interested,
all the members of teams having the sense of the mission and purpose. It is, to cite the paper, a culture that attacks problems not people.
They are good in problems solving, that's obvious, we, CF/LENR have not solved many of our existential, developmental problems- but I have already written too much about this. Could we have somewhere an institution totally dedicated to LENR+ highly googlized? A LENR institution aware of the fact that you actually do not solve a problem if your solution does not come fast enough
Google, on the other side is nearing to LENR. They have earned very big money with solving the info problems and want to spend a part of the money solving the energy problem of Humanity. See please:
Google's Suggestion fo Climate Fix by jd sweeney
and discover Londont- a nice, smart blog. The Google authors still have to discover the real virtues of LENR+ and to organize the coronation as emperor of the Energy Sources.

Rossi has said recently that isotopic shift, the great and mysterious clue of the Lugno experiment is not fusion. Now he goes a bot further:

Herb Gills:
The issue is much more complex than you say; isotopic shifts are caused by reactions and themselves cause further reactions, about which, obviously, I cannot give information, as I wrote many times.
The role of hydrogen is foundamental. All I meant is just that the main nuclear reactions are not necessarily fusion.
Warm Regards,
A.R.

Anyway he has also told today:
Bob:
One of the things we have to test is the duration of a charge under the stress of a 1 MW plant in a long period. We plan not to change the charge until we have a decrease of efficiency, to check which is its real duration under stress. Due information about this issue will be given at the end of the test, probably within one year. Good question.
Warm Regards,
A.R.

It is an unbelievably small quantity of fuel in the e-cats, If the Lugano results are real, then the heat release intensity, per unit of weight of metal is some 20000 times greater in LENR+ than in LENR (Fleischmann Pons cell) Is it the same phenomenon?
