That should be: "It strikes me as fairly easy to control for
gravitational thermal instabilities in flow calorimeters.".
Fairies, sprites, elves, pixies, leprechauns, or other magical beings
are hopefully not essential factors in cold fusion experiments.

You cannot control these instabilities in your cup of coffee.
Especially since I drink tea due to blood pressure problems.
I don't think controlling thermal instabilities is important, it is
eliminating their effect on the calorimetry. This is of course why
Seebeck calorimetry is useful. Whatever directions the heat flows,
it is measured.
Controlling the instabilities of fairies, sprites, elves, pixies,
leprechauns, or other magical beings is outside my experience. 8^)
