... Richard Aho . or "Smokie" CEO of MIST - tries to defend his device to skeptics. It is not easy to do. There are many red flags and the so-called testing stinks. Now where have we heard that before ... ? He may or may not have something valid That about covers all the options ... but what he does not have is acceptable test data. And that sounds familiar too .... Yes, I am inclined to agree that - up to a point - this is similar to Rossi's history . as well as every other nutty and underfunded inventor who comes along. Only one in a thousand (or less) nutty inventors will have something of real value to society - and occasionally one of them may have something that can make a huge difference. The informed observers and writers of the Science World will help to determine how quickly any such crazy invention is either spurned - or expedited. Occasionally, however, every year of delay could amount to another hundred billion of wealth transferred to entities which essentially are the sworn enemies of the USA. Consequently, Mark - you did not complete the analogy: which is when a half dozen PhDs come into your lab, witness the device in operation, measure parameters and agree that the energy is massively anomalous, and then writhe a paper on it . well . that changes everything - and then at that point we should give Smokie his due - and try to facilitate his further advancements. or at least to not interfere. . instead of publishing complete and totally worthless BS like this. I know you are not an editor, but they should be ashamed of this level of crap. OK to go in Popular Mechanics, maybe, but nothing more sophisticated: http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=worlds-first-flying-saucer .anyone associated with SciAm should be able to see through this kind of hypocrisy.
