Thank you for posting. And while I appreciate the sentiment, I believe there is a rather obvious gap between what is being preached and what is being practiced -- on almost all sides of the issue. If anyone pays a semblance of attention to the cold fusion message boards, they are littered with all kinds of inane stubbornness as well as loose associations (i.e. based more on qualitative connections than quantitative research) believed/argued to be infallible fact -- a clear sign of egocentric exchange coming from many sides. Conquest/debate is preferred, not open-minded mutual exchange (i.e. Bohmian dialogue). And not to make it personal (i.e. bring ego into the "ego out zone"), but I think the ever mysterious Axil is one of the worst offenders in this regard (i.e. narrow/monolithic insistence on nano-plasmons & "magnetic nano-antennae" to all LENR phenomenon/systems. Something I do find intellectually interesting, but only in the general context of discussing "cooperative modes" across systems). Not that I'm perfect by any means, and while I entertain some rather speculative ideas, there must be some "boundary conditions" to our speculations based on what's been established/replicated by experiment in the systems in question (LENR), how serious we take them based on expert analysis, and a willingness to admit "Yeah, actually, this is just my guess, not fact, so take it or leave it." Even though we are all entitled to our own "reality tunnels", and diversity is of course important to any evolving ecology, everyone has to be more flexible/adaptive in their thinking processes, and less dogmatic because as a society/culture we are a learning/information driven open system. When communication breaks down, the system breaks down. All the best to you. Thank you again for producing consistently thoughtful work, even if we don't always agree.Fokshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17727492173608298572noreply@blogger.com
