MOTTO
The first step is the hardest. (Marie De Vichy-Chamrond)
An expert technology project manager well knows that the next steps have to be labeled: 1a, 1b, 1c...1n and so on...)
True for LENR too... Let's do the first step(s)!
Shadow of events
Sensationalism was one of the invited fairies at the birth of Cold Fusion, and this is not so bad as many believe. To do regular science with wet PdD is an ordeal, you must be very deeply motivated to continue with bad reproducibility due to reasons you do not understand. As the following document shows, cold fusion attracts attention only when it is spectacular, in a sense or other. In 2014 the Lugano experiment and Bill Gates's visit at ENEA- have "done it":

Parkhomov's method must go viral!
By the way, I had a great Russian night today, listening at the Shalyapin Festival - at MEZZO TV- from the Opera of Kazan- really highest class opera singers, an enchantment.
Being LENR focused, in meantime I have imagined how the Parkhomov set-up will be tested
worldwide- and at the sad arias as: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnRGMGM0YYg
I became worried due to the risks- safety first again!
The author has sent to ECat World a detailed granulometric analysis of the nickel powder used in the test- micrometric not nanometric, he has a fine instrument for this.

Obviously, Mike Ivanov has designed the action in more detail than me: Hot Cat – Do It Yourself Suggestions (Mike Ivanov)

Well done, professional report- read it please!

16) What do you think of the replication of the ‘Rossi Effect’ made with a calorimetric system by the Russian scientist Alexander Parkhomov?

16) What do you think of the replication of the ‘Rossi Effect’ made with a calorimetric system by the Russian scientist Alexander Parkhomov?
“It is possible that, with the data published by the Third Independent Party in the Lugano Report, a replication of the effect is made. I do not know the particulars, therefore I cannot comment; but, if true, congratulations to the Russian Scientist”.
Rossi seems to believe that standard physics will explain LENR, I believe it is not so, hopefully 2015 will bring an answer.
Coincidence: yesterday I wrote about LEAN LENR RESEARCH and today Tanmay Vora who has inspired me many time, for example with VUCA- announces:
Book Announcement: Implementing Lean Six Sigma in 30 Days http://qaspire.com/2014/12/29/book-announcement-implementing-lean-six-sigma-in-30-days/ I have stated many times that Management is one of the main sources of the modern, realist and pragmatic philosophy

To think about this (parents, grandparents):
Dear Peter,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your knowledge, your hope and your dedication. I often don't read your work as carefully as I should, but knowing that you are here, fighting for your vision of scientific progress, arguing for your understanding of this new area of physics - this is really important for me to know. It's important for me to know that you're here. So thank you!
And I agree - progress over the past year has been real, and 2015 promises to be amazing.
Happy new year, Mr Gluck!
