What he [22Passi] says simply- I want to believe that this was an
error of Krivit, but it seems to be bad intent.
To address Passi's comment:
I doubt there is any bad intent. I would say it was bad timing (Krivit
should have waited), a bad attitude, and Krivit's unfortunate tendency
to upset people. He is tactless. He frames questions in way that
professors find presumptuous. I seldom get upset by anyone, but Krivit
sometimes rubs me the wrong way.
Plus we have Rossi, who is mercurial. Rossi + Krivit is an explosive
mixture.
Regarding Rossi's assertion that there is a worldwide conspiracy against
the Rossi effect, I do not think there is any such conspiracy, but I
expect there will be, starting next year, once it becomes generally
known that the effect is real. I do not expect this conspiracy will
succeed in stopping the technology, but it may slow it down.
It would be naive to think that a technology that will quickly put OPEC
and the oil companies out of business will not meet with widespread
organized opposition, both open and surreptitious. The latter is a
conspiracy, by definition.
