eCat 1MW Test Will Be Private

Today we learned that The 1MW eCat Reactor Will Not Be A Public Test Like October 6th Was.

Instead, the test will be carried out privately for a small group of individuals. This group will be made up of consultants and representatives of the as yet unnamed Customer as well as "prominent scientific journalists".  The customer will be monitoring the progress and is ultimately interested in the report results on completion of the test.

Dear Sean Parker, Yes, after the 28th no more public tests, we will be too engaged to manufacture and test for our Customers. We will continue R&D work with Bologna University and Uppsala University, but the work will not be public. Actually, also the test of the 28th will not be public, being a test made by the Customer, with his experts, along a contractual protocol. Anyway it will be the last work with a public report made upon the resulting numbers.

Warm Regards,
A.R.

In response to a question Rossi also tells us that "prominent scientific journalists" will be attending the test. The questioner asks "In other words, will this test be the one that finally makes the E-Cat known to the larger public through mass media reports?" Rossi's reply "Yes". 

One immediately thinks of prominent scientific journalists from Nature, New Scientist and all of the other heavyweight mainstream publications, but it remains to be seen if that is what Rossi means by "prominent scientific journalists".  Enough time has passed and enough interesting experiments have taken place to rouse even the most dopey journalist out of their iPhone obsessions, so it certainly makes sense that by now most of the big media would have been making enquiries (perhaps behind the scenes). This 28th Oct test is after all, "The BIG One".

The results of the test may not become known publicly for some time after the experiment concludes (perhaps even weeks), but Rossi seems confident that news of the eCat as a new primary energy source will be delivered to the sleeping goggle eyed masses.

Unlike Rossi, I am less confident that the energy industry and it's political apparatus and media partners will bow in submission to the new kid on the block - LENR. Unless of course the transition to these technologies has been designed to happen this way?

Get Real : Get Pizza! - Real Science With Extra Cheese

Free Energy - But Not As Interesting As Pizza

A couple of days ago Steorn put a scientific impossibility on display in the Waterways Museum in Dublin which is into it's 3rd day of Live Web Streaming. The free energy device (ORBO) is at this moment powering itself, recharging a battery and emitting energy through heat also - a 3:1 ratio. Orbo has the possibility to change everything we know and to open our minds to the real possibilities of the universe.

So it's worth pointing out that while the biggest discovery of the millenium is taking place at the Waterways Visitor Centre, it's good to know that on behalf of the public the real heavyweights like NewScientist are adding some real insight.

Meanwhile BoingBoing.net have written an article on the Orbo demo.  Only thing I would say to these guys is get with the freakin program here! You do not spend millions of Euros, 6 years or research and development, 20 or so full time staff, then do a public demonstration of an "ordinary electric motor".  Boing boing is obviously a euphamism for the sound of their tiny brains bouncing about inside their vacuous craniums.

It really is amazing the amount of so called tech blogs and tech sites who slag off Orbo, without investigating or making any sort of effort to understand it, yet people still read it as gospel.

Feel free to all hang your heads in shame.
