DEFINING WHAT REALLY IS BASICS OF COLD FUSION-NOT

MOTTO

Your definition, gentlemen, would be perfect, only for three exceptions. The crab is not a fish, it is not red and it does not walk backwards (Georges Cuvier).

Quote over-used, but no better one was invented; definition is a perfidious logical manoeuvre, surgery,  and sometimes even sadistic mutilation of a concept.

On E-Cat World,  Andrea Calaon, answering to Axil speaks about Basics of Cold Fusion- see Daily News. I would not dispute what he says, however I am very contrariated about what he says not. Dare-to-say this is the most important  part if this really wants to be about the basics.
Many new LENR players have appeared  after 2011. I remember Andrea Calaon as  a young creative theorist who surfaced at my favorite Italian site, 22 Passi but this is not relevant now.
I really enjoy the logic in the ordeal of Hyds and I know that after less then 100 equivalents of the Lugano experiment fully analysed, we will know in which extent the Hyd story is real. I appreciate that the author understands the diversity of the phenomena
Why is this not about the BASICS of the cold fusion field?

the crab is not a fish:
I think we should not speak about a single cold fusion, but many along a long scale
of earthy temperatures, there are some similarities between all but the differences are more relevant; from the cool to boiling F& P electrochemical cell to Piantelli's Ni nano-structures based process to warm and hotter cats, to Defkalion's plasma, to core of Terra
LENRs and LENR+s.Some people believe in the genius and the unity of Nature (Ed Storms is a great example in LENR), other people prefer to believe in the creativity and diversity of Nature (me, for example, and Reality). 
Calaon, a bright nuclear physicist is in the first camp as long he speaks about the basics and not specifically about the case of Hot Cat- best known by the Lugano experiment.
Cold Fusion is of more kinds

the crab is not red
As almost everybody in the history oF CF, Calaon thinks to seem that Cold Fusion/LENR is first of all mainly, preponderently NUCLEAR and therefore alll we have to do is to defeat, by force or by smart tricks- the Coulomb Barrier- considered the greatest obstacle to successful Cold Fusion/LENR. However LENRs are multi-step, multi-stage, poly-sequential; each sequence is characterized by its own locus, nature and mechanism. It is essential to distinguish between the
- pre-nuclear, 
- nuclear, and
- post nuclear, stages
but these can differ much for the sorts of LENR. I wonder of how much have in common for example the cool wetness of the Fleischmann Pons Cell with the thermal Inferno of the Hot Cat, the noblesse of hydrogen thirsty palladium and the unsophistication of nickel; however some visionaries say almost exactly the same things happen in both.
The pre-nuclear stages including a mechanism for continuous, intense, renewable generation of nuclearly active sites- and just here we cannot ignore nanoplasmonics and magnetic phenomena- is genuine trigger- now or never phase of the processes
It is an complex edifice of diverse phenomena that, combined create powerful very cheap energy with no damaging radiations,
Cold Fusion is a combination of nuclear and non-nuclear phenomena.

the crab does not go backwards

LENRs do not need a passive theory but an active one, they have to be used as a combination of science and technology if you want to put them to work. Engineering is the key of success, the genuine NAE- nuclear active environment is actually the entire reactor, generator, reaction vessel that creates the circumstances for the necessary sequences of phenomena taking place  on a continuous long term basis. 

Examples, bad or good are contagious, Calaon has coined Hyd, I create THEORRECIPEs as describing active, creative, actionable fertile hybrids of science and technology.
Cold Fusion- in its LENR+ forms, is a good actionable mixture of science and technology. 

SO, it can be predicted
a) no valid usable general theory for the LENR field will ever appear;
b) no single theory for any kind of LENR is possible, composed theories necessary
c) multi-theories for LENR, theorrecipes for LENR+

One nice reader sends this as explanation of the results of Shafeev; have asked him more details and arguments;

Lots to learn and to think about, all the time

Bill Gates is very popular in our LENR circles- so it can be relevant what want the people convince us  that Bill has said but it is not true. What about funding PdD?

I wrote more papers about the subject not great impact.

  1. This proposed Hyd theory fails because it does not demonstrate action at a distance. In experiments with exploding titanium wires, the exploding wire is placed in an completely enclosed isolated water filled chamber surrounded by a outer water filled chamber filled with a dissolved uranium salt. After the wire explosion, fission of uranium is found in the outer chamber through detection of the fission ash of uranium.

    This says that no particle based agent is responsible for the LENR reaction.
