Re: How to explain this?



On Tuesday, Feb 18, 2003, Bob LaMontagne asked:

Is this another of your Cold Fusion posts? :-)

He was referring to this:

. . . Why did placing a cold spoon into the hot coffee-milk
produce a sudden boiling-like "explosion?" . . .

Well, this morning I tried to reproduce the event but the
result was negative. Does it mean that the phenomenon
I observed yesterday was not real? Not at all. It only means
that essential parameters, on which the outcome depends,
are not controlled. That is the only connection with cold
fusion, Bob. Thanks for asking. See the P.S. added below.

E. Storms has an interesting articles (rejected by four
mainstream journals) on controlling essential C.F.
parameters. The situation is no longer as bad as it was
thirteen years ago. To find his article do this:

1) Go to http://lenr-canr.org/LibFrame1.html
2) Click on the LIBRARY link
3) Scroll down the alphabetic list of authors to STORMS
4) Download "Cold Fusion: an Objective Assessment, 2001"

This library, by the way, is an excellent source to many articles
(out of nearly 3000) describing 13 years of cold fusion research.
Some of these articles are summarized, or commented upon, at:
