			<description><![CDATA[It seems to me that the calibration of this device is a complex matter. The wire is cooled by radiation and convection. Using a calibration gas with less good convection properties than hydrogen, which I believe helium is, will cause a higher wire temperature and proportionally more radiation. Some of that radiation will simply pass the glass tube. It can be compared with a heat flow leak which at calibration is higher that for the “sharp” case. The convection properties depend of the Rayleigh number. To be 100% sure to exclude the effect you need to calibrate with two gasses, one with higher and one with lower Rayleigh number than hydrogen. Another option is to use a non-transparent tube.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I don't think I understand the "calibration formula" curve of T of mica vs "power out". By "power out", what do you mean? Is that the power supplied to the heater? (I'd have called that "power in" if it is). And when you measure the temperature of the mica, do you allow it to reach steady state at a given power level or are you following some sort of consistent power vs time program? If so, what's the heater power vs time curve? I am sorry if this has been explained elsewhere. If so, please just link the explanation. Thanks.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The webcam is a great idea. We are rather bandwidth limited at the moment, so it will probably be very low speed. How does an image a minute sound?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[We are doing the internal MFMP tests to establish if we can reproduce the effect. That implies we are sceptical - we need to be sure that a plug and play test that works can be delivered to multiple locations and so we have to be diligent and methodical in our approach. This will give us insight and understanding for the next phase. The big social funding and multiple replication of a second generation reactor that will hopefully help to kickstart a revolution. If the team strike first time - you lot will be right there with us - it would be lucky for sure - but whatever happens we'll keep testing so as to understand what works and what doesn't and this will take the process forward. Thanks for engaging and spread the word - The New Fire is coming!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I too am skeptical but nonetheless I remain hopeful. After the whole Rossi saga who can blame us for being more cautious than normal?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[these updates are great... makes me feel like I'm right there in the lab with you guys. you oughta start some kinda pool as to when "the effect" will be seen. if you make it happen by the end of the week (sat midnight) I'll throw in another $50 toward this great project :)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I am not sure that the wire temperature is the key factor as compared to the gas temperature. Celani got excellent excess power when he drove the inactive wire. There would have been a large temperature difference within the active wire in that mode, but the output did not suffer significantly. I recommend that you play with the drive allocation between the active and inactive wire while keeping the net drive the same for output comparison. I am impressed with the progress you are making. Keep up the important work.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thanks, David. I welcome an audience of skeptics. Even if I can't provide definitive proof with the first test, I certainly hope to at least make it intriguing enough to merit more study by more people.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I’m a complete sceptic. I do not believe cold fusion/LENR is real. But I also sincerely wish to be proved wrong for a number of reasons. First; what interesting times that would make for, second, I know a lot of the people at RAL working on ‘hot’ fusion and I would love to witness their disbelief at the news… Consequently, given the maxim “extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof” to win over the main scientific community expediently, I would suggest the only proof capable of this is to achieve a self sustained mode.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Being an experimental physicist my methodology would be to maximise any signal relative to noise. Further I would want the experimental results to be as unambiguous (to myself initially) as possible. To this end I would insulate your tube so that you put the minimum amount of energy in to raise the temperature to the desired point. Once you have beyond (your own doubt) seen the experimental results (poss. or neg.), then you can start removing insulation and making the experiment as open as possible for others to see.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Regarding the statement "The risk is that if we have to put too much power into the wire to heat the cell to the required temperature we might overload the wire and it will burn out easier." I believe that the nature of the glass is irrelevant to the amount of power generated by the wire or its operating temperature. First, It is the wire temperature that affects the reaction. If the glass allows more heat loss, it just means that we need a little more wattage to keep the wire temperature where we want it. That means that the cell will have a slightly lower energy gain as a percent of heater power. At this stage, we don't care. All we want is to measure excess heat. Making it more efficient comes later.]]></description>
