It sounds like a pain in the butt with no benefit. Suppose for the sake of argument, he couldn't. What difference does that make? Is there any reason to think it cannot be done by anyone, ever? Of course not! There must be thousands of engineers who could design a recirculation system. It is a minor engineering problem compared to developing the eCat in the first place. If Rossi cannot do it, a hundred thousand other people can, and they surely will when the need arises. Again, suppose he cannot. This has no bearing on the result. It reduces the estimate of excess heat somewhat, but that is unimportant. Rossi never gives a damn about accuracy or precision in his tests. He NEVER aims to produce an accurate result, and he never tries to optimize the system. His only goal is to do a test quickly and conveniently that he himself finds convincing. He does not care whether the observers have trouble understanding it. He never listens to suggestions made by experts that would improve the tests. As long as he is satisfied with a test, you or the experts may not be satisfied, but he does not give a fart what any of you think. He has told me that any number of times over the last two years, albeit not in so many words. He is more polite about it, but his message could not be clearer. - Jed
