Now i have to help an old friend with a rather long translation.<br /><br />The paper will be an extension of the concept of Truth. Not sterile philosophy- just realism.<br />PeterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326167780677397310.post-18440686365828572312012-11-03T15:20:41.807-07:002012-11-03T15:20:41.807-07:00Peter

It is good that you keep planting these seeds as some are bound to take root & refocus needed attention back to understanding & better harnessing developments such as LENR.<br /><br />It seems an enormous amount of otherwise useful mental energy is being, and continues to be, burned up by the pro & anti Rossi antics. It seems to me I have wasted too much energy trying to research him and his claims rather than focusing on what is needed to move this new energy field forward. The only positive that might (IMHO) come from Rossi's antics, is that a lot more people are thinking about the possibilities than would have had he not started his (in)famous circus.<br /><br />I am encouraged by DGT's smart decision to bail out from involvement in Rossi's 'ecat wars' saga and quieten down & just get on with the job. The real hope there is that they are making progress and have the capacity to keep doing so.<br /><br />Because of the stigma of past association with Rossi, I have been very cautious about being seen to promote / support DGT although I have had good feedback from some NASA related people and have always been intrigued by Peter's open support of DGT. I think it may be time for more of us to offer support based on the current more mature approach to DGTs research and progress.<br /><br />My belief re Rossi is that no matter what Piantelli success he was able to repeat, he (Rossi) will be out on a limb assuming the long expected rejection of his IPO patent happens within the announced 4 months by the IPO. It is though equally intriguing as to Piantelli's notification that his IPO patent application (priority back to Oct 2008) is expected to be approved. This must surely have a significant impact of willingness to invest in Ni+H LENR type research. At the moment I do see patent protection as a good reason for more adventurous big corporations to get behind LENR. I am sure we here all agree that few companies want to invest any more in Pd+D projects. Peter has long pointed out the futility in trying to kick down that wall. A wall that appears to be far to thick.<br /><br />So, I am wanting to see DGT continue to progress and remain out of the pirahna infested channels of this river.<br /><br />Doug Marker <br /><br /><br /><br />dsjm1https://www.blogger.com/profile/07779323885237127015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326167780677397310.post-63065700816084376032012-10-15T11:35:04.321-07:002012-10-15T11:35:04.321-07:00Dear Yannis,
Thank you very much. I understand th...Dear Yannis,<br /><br />Thank you very much. I understand that you consider fear, rigid dogma (and elastic too) and closed-mindedness as deadly enemies of creativity and this applies for LENR.<br />You are much younger than me, you had not "lived" the 23+ years of LENR history, the continuous sinusoidal of great hopes and deep disillusion. However surely you have experienced directly the miraculous ascension of the WWWeb and the - I really cannot name it! development of the Wikipedia that is almost omniscient, can answer to myriads of questions.<br />As regarding Tim, i.e. Sir Timothy Berners-Lee the great thing is that he remained in harmony and resonance with his invention, despite the fact that this ahs increased at a multi-hyper-exponential speed much beyond any over-optimistic expectation.<br />We owe him much and our duty is to accomplish a similar LENR energy revolution. no dogma should stay in the way!<br /><br />Rossi remains an enigma_ I have written too much about him.<br />I still have a positive Pareto opinion toward him, *0% of my brain and mind wants to believe he has invented something important jus can not manage it well, the rest of 20% says calm down, once you were not so credulous. I remain undecided<br />PeterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326167780677397310.post-41371876462345048322012-10-15T10:28:20.396-07:002012-10-15T10:28:20.396-07:00Peter,
Some humble remarks as the result of the &q...Peter,<br />Some humble remarks as the result of the "food for thought" contained in this part of your sequel:<br /><br />1. <b> By definition</b> Christianity is a monotheist religion, wright? Even though, it maintains many mini-gods (some with very specific obligations) and totems (such as the Sindone or body-pieces of different saints) through a successful paradigm shift in history. In such paradigm shift, which was designed and executed some centuries AC, the goal was to get as much as more social perception on the new dogma maintaining in parallel a decision support hierarchical schema, always acting/deciding with the minimax critiria by all official churches (minimize the maximum loss, which in this case was the non-social-perception of official dogmas, that could outcome revolutions etc). <br /><br />Such "by definition" in LENR follows the same characteristics by the scientific priesthood dominating this field over the last 23 years with decisions taken the same way as by churches in the past: try to get the maximum perception within the main stream academia that can not trigger any revolution, following also a monotheistic-like definition on LENR term and research approaches, which concluded to the non efficiency of such religions over the last century (even though this approach seems still effective). <br /><br />2. On the contrary: <b> By principle (and definition)</b> Internet did not suffer of such problems on efficiency/effectiveness. In its beginning people in CERN designing www understood that they had to make a decision: allowing the open use of such net and its self-organizing non-hierarchical characteristic or to control its evolution by restrict rules and mechanisms? They decided the first, even though there was the risk of bad use on such network from porno-industry or pedophilia. So far such decision seems to be the most successful paradigm-shift through decision making in R&D, as far as Timothy Berners was not under fear, making such decision in his R&D, trusting people's perception on what he thought correct. During those days, Berners had no theory at all on how such a net could exploit and be useful through www. He relied on his fearless scientific principal that what he could make wrong other people would fix, if they have the chance to do so with no restrictions.<br /><br />3. The same paradigm shift as internet stands for wikipedia, which signals as the new Encyclopedia of the next revolutionary era in all scientific fields and knowledge build. <br /><br />4. In order LENR to follow such successful paradigm shifts such as Internet or wikipedia, effectiveness/efficiency needs to follow the same principles. There is one prerequisite to apply such principles when making decisions on research: the lack of fear. The publication of confirmed results of our paradigm shift will appear soon. But still, this will be not enough to get all fear out through a total paradigm shift that could turn this scientific field into a fruitful (in terms of effectiveness and efficiency) area. Still pseudo-monotheistic dogmas invented by gurus have to be taken away. As quick as possible!<br />Looking forward for the next.<br />Yannis<br /><br /><br />PS: As for A. Rossi who appeared shooting his leg in public again, it is obvious that he did not attended any of his classes in philosophy as well, so such discussion leaves him out. Obviously he likes (has decided) to be a Burner and Burned martyr in this field and not its Berners. <br /><br /><br />John Hadjichristoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13745216633198255742noreply@blogger.com
