A “Lib Dem” minister just told Sky News he was approving new nuclear power stations to promote green jobs. If anybody ever votes for these lying bastards again I shall be disconsolate.

Dave; What’s your take on Rossi? (non-rhetorical question)
http://cassandralegacy.blogspot.com/2013/01/the-end-of-e-cat-story-andrea-rossi.html
Ben, i can understand your regret and you’re dead right about his fingernails–he’s a natural strummer. And lots of rings on his fingers. The other thing we talked about was of the time when he and Bob Dylan and literally just a couple of others were singer-songwriter friends in the emerging days in New York City.
Here’s one of Dylan’s absolute best, live from when he was just a kid:

Music, one of the best things to come out of the paradox that is America.
Hats off Mr Dylan, but wtf did you feel compelled to go to the White House to get a petty piece of metal pinned on you, called the Medal of Freedom or whatever. Send the effing thing back now!
Villager; I can hardly let myself listen to Dylan anymore. I find myself listening to Donovan, instead. He’s my Troubador. You are amazed at American Music; I am astounded by the talent on your Isles.
‘Someone today asked Andrea Rossi about how the 1 MW plant that was delivered to some military entity was doing. It’s a good question, since apparently this military customer is so far, according to Rossi, the only one he has with a working E-Cat.”

@Ben 5:41pm
Ben all I know is this Rossi maybe has something or is he kidding himself I don`t know.Has he sold out? he could have.Anyway he has kicked off new research in the LENR community.Plasma LENR is real and overunity ,I built one for fun years ago based on a 1970`s British patent for electrolytic cleaning.
The problem is its not very practical,for that reason I am building a more practical one based on the
Full US patent of the late Harold Aspden an old friend of mine , He was about the first to obtain a Full patent on LENR .I don`t think Rossi has full patent ,Harold was years ahead of the field
in the art of Hydrogen/Nichol reactors. I also think Rossi took some of Harold`s idea`s from his patent.
I couldn’t quite work out what point Mary was trying to make with this snippet of hers from earlier in the day:
“And what about Cleggover who has been having an Easter holiday in his parents’ 20-roomed dwelling in Davos or Duncan Smith, the ex arms salesman currently residing in his multi roomed stately home that belongs/belonged to his wife’s in-laws, the Cottesloes?”
********
Is Mary against Easter holidays in general, or against Nick Clegg having an Easter holiday, or against Nick Clegg having a holiday at his parents’ place?
Or, having read Craig’s post about Switzerland, has Mary taken against the most charming (but, alas, Swiss) voillage of Davos?
Or is she annoyed that some people have large houses with many rooms?
Or, perhaps, that men (especially if former arms salemen) shouldn’t marry women whose in-laws have large houses?
I think we should be told (if she actually knows herself).
***********
And this one, from the same Mary post :
“Will these layabouts be subjected to a bedroom tax? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/prince-william/9960544/Privacy-under-a-pergola-for-Will-and-Kate.html
They will be living in the place where his father committed adultery”
******
Thank you for that bit of information, Mary, I had alwauàys wanted to know exactly where Prince Charmes slept with Camilla.
But I’m sure he also slept with her in other places. Could you possibly let us know a bit about those others places beacuse I’m sure there are lots of readers who are dying to know.
Thank you.

“Ask yourself “Which would Habbabkuk prefer?”
(1) that you ignore him
(2) that you rise to the bait and respond, thus giving him an excuse to reply to your response.”
Habbabkuk would prefer commenters to reply to his reasonable questions on matters such as why it is relevant to mention that Prince Charles committed adultery in a place William and Kate are going to live in, or why Professor Malcolm Grant is characterised as the embodiment of evil.
But I shall be generous and assume that A Node is referring to posts like the one from Villager on 30 March at 20h49 where in a mere few lines Villager manages to come out with “piss off you Babbling cunt”, “senile old fart”, “prick” (twice) and “crap” and he is right in thinking that this blog would be better off without comments of such little intellectual and verbal distinction.
Gerard Depardieu, nicknamed ‘Lardon’ by Craig, has suffered a bit of a setback in his new life as a Russian citizen. A 40-story skyscraper in Chechnya containing his apartment has been spectacularly engulfed in fire. Everybody managed to escape.
Fat Gerry is really just my flimsy justification for posting a link to some dramatic videos.

Ben don`t take him seriously.
Steven Krivit he is always cropping up he is a self appointed expert on LENR One time I was going to
take him to task then decided he was not worth the energy.He has no background or experience in the hands on experience in the cutting edge of Particle or Quantum physics . I wouldn’t give a him job.He is a bit like Maddox in this country who was a failed physicist so got a job as editor of Nature.

Habbabkuk (La vita è bella!)
3 Apr, 2013 – 10:32 am
“Nice to hear from you for the first time, Zebulon.”
“Could you point me to where I accused Mary of saying things about the Queen (or about the Royal family for that matter)? Once you’ve done that, I’ll indicate which of Mary’s posts did so in my opinion. Thank you very much.”
“BTW, I seem to recall that Craig even had to step in once about nasty and irrelevant comments on the Queen on this blog. Go check.”
Habbabkuk, you implied that Mary was the poster that mentioned that the queen had diarrhoea when in fact it was I and you knew that.
Mary merely responded to my post she was not the originator of the newsflash (in the pan) twas I.
So Zebulon is correct and needn’t waste his/her time looking back through your numerous posts trying to find it.
You say to Zebulon:
“I seem to recall that Craig even had to step in once about nasty and irrelevant comments on the Queen on this blog. Go check.”
No. It is not for Zebulon to go check. It is for you to supply the relevant information, it’s called referencing; something you very rarely, if ever, do.
@ All,

There should be synchronous research.

And when I did – at your urgent request – you replied that you “couldn’t be arsed” to check out the references (cf. this thread, 28/03 at 21h31). All mouth and no trousers.

The govt is certainly funding and being kept informed of progress in development of technologies related to energy production, but that does not mean they are interested in crackpot inventions. I have a degree in science and I know bullshit when I see it. You have to ask yourself why there is never a working model available for independent verification, or why it fails when it is examined. The psychopathology of cranks is an interesting phenomenon and you can see patterns emerge when you study their behaviour.

@Dave Lawton
Thanks for the links Dave but Jesus never existed. He’s the invention of a Jewish cult and early Catholic Church in an era when beliefs in supernatural forces were a normal part of political processes. People who talk about Christ today imagine someone great based on an ever-evolving myth that feeds off of itself. I think most people are reluctant to accept that they’ve been conned so they rationalise their foolishness by redefining it.

Oliver Stone says “we (the US) are militarising the planet”.
On Channel 4:
“KRISHNAN GURU-MURTHY Presenter
Are Americans gullible about their history?
Are Americans lied to in school about their past? Is the US provoking North Korea? Oliver Stone and Peter Kuznick, authors of the Untold History of the United States, speak to Krishnan Guru-Murthy.”

All this while the war games continue in Korea. Maybe it will take a nuclear war for human beings to awaken.

Jemand; C’mon. Just because there are conspiracy nuts, doesn’t make all conspiracies ‘nutz’.
Your logic could have a scientific base, but you sound like a flat-earther who deems Copernicus a fraud.
“The black dog is a female, therefore all black dogs must be female.”
Thanks for the link Courtney. I’ve been following this story on the Anna Ardin liar thread. My take on it at the moment until further information is available, or further developments take place, is that this is still part of a plan aimed at getting Julian Assange out of circulation.
It seems hardly coincidental that this judge, Stefan Lindskog, has made a statement, no doubt supported by the Swedish government, that Assange “may” not be extradited under terms of an existing treaty with the US, directly after the two main prosecution personnel, Claes Borgstrom and Marianne Ny (both having blotted their copybooks) have been taken off the case. However, it takes more than one judicial interpretation to reach an extradition decision and as Lindskog says, the Swedish legal system is a mess. The plan might just be to get Assange imprisoned on trumped-up charges.
Hopefully this is the wrong interpretation and Sweden is coming to its senses realising that the case is creating bad international publicity for them. If I were a young man I would not go to Sweden just in case I met a woman there and it developed into a relationship. The Assange set-up has done real rape-victims a great disservice. Sweden needs to change its laws to protect men. The legal system is a mess. The only way I would be sure that there was a change in policy was if they sent the new prosecutor to London to interview him – since President Correa specially offered the Embassy for such questioning. Anyway, we will see.
Ben, how am I a flat earther? I reject nonsense therefore I reject good sense?
Your analogy using the false inductive reasoning of all black dogs being female is misapplied. It makes no sense that you either believe or entertain the possibility of truth for something on the basis of an absence of falsification. It is incumbent on those who make great claims to prove them. I have read plenty and this discussion concerning free energy has the same characteristics as many others before it that predate the internet. If you want to chase rainbows, you’re free – but don’t get angry when others point out the folly of it.
If Dave Lawton’s claims are valid, where is the (non-bullshit) evidence? I read a lot of talk, but no evidence.
