Excess Heat

I did not witness the last Brilliant Light Power shareholder meeting.  I heard that it was something of a fiasco, with people interrupting Dr. Mills to tell him to go ahead and commercialize, or something like that. It makes me wish that I had not published that open letter , although the arguments are solid.  Shareholders have a right to understand what is happening and a credible public demonstration is not asking too much.  However, there are other significant considerations, which Dr. Mills might not want to openly discuss. This 2017 article did what was done previously.  It gave reason to be optimistic about the immediate future of BLP.  Critics use the disappointment that follows such announcements as evidence supporting various negative allegations.  The reactor that was available for demonstration reportedly was impressive, to some extent, but did not raise a noticeable improvement in credibility because of limitations on reaction temperature cause...

While I was quite young, about 14 years, my father, who was a professor of electrical engineering at the University of Colorado, told us (his family) about new research he was starting.  The world was faced with the possible oil shortages.  We had long lines at gas pumps and price increased a lot.  He thought about the problems involved with retorting oil shale.  There were pilot projects that involved strip mining the shale and then cooking the rock in large vessels, which transformed the kerogen into something that could be refined into commercial grade oil.  Nobody doubted that it worked, but the cost and environmental impact were prohibitive.  He wondered if perhaps using microwave instead of conducted heat would be superior. This idea drew derision for the obvious reasons.  Electricity is produced in processes that waste most of the available energy, whether by combusting fuel, absorbing sunlight or capturing wind energy.  Even as a young tee...

When I learned about it, I was initially not concerned at all about the theory of Dr. Mills.  I saw claims of high replication rates and high power gain in a light water electrolytic calorimetry experiment.  It was reproduced by several experimenters, some of whom, like Dr. Robert Bush, rejected the hydrino hypothesis, but confirmed that light water "cold fusion" excess heat was happening in his lab.  This was at a university and it attracted a lot of interest, so it seemed to me that it probably was real.  I just wanted to see something produce excess heat. I read Dr. Mills' 1991 paper as far as I could, enough to grasp his novel physical conceptualization of the electron and claims that this held up well in mathematical physics modeling to produce behaviors in agreement with well established observations.  I dropped it in favor of other cold fusion work when I then went to work for Dr. Mallove.  My interest was jump-started when I met Dr. Phillips, as des...

  I enjoy watching this old video  (it may take a while to load, being so long), despite the awful sound quality and barely legible graphics.  It certainly does make us appreciate how much better media has become for ordinary users.  Future videos provided by Dr. Mills have been much better.  This was not produced by him.  I recently added subtitles with the use of AI, which cleaned up audio.  I went through it to fix various words, but it remains a good faith representation. This meeting was attended by a room full of professional chemists, presumably, and I recognize some of them from the back of their heads, including Dr. Martin Fleischmann, who poses a most germane question to Dr. Mills about whether or not they had papers published to support the statements being made in this lengthy series of lectures from Dr. Mills and supporting scientists.   It is possible to understand much more of the discussion in this version, which improved my o...

Another amazing product from Claude Sonnet 5 was a result of giving it a group of files, including some that I wrote, mostly in defense of Dr. Mills' theory and claims.  I asked for a dialogue between two imaginary scientists with appropriate backgrounds in the standard model.  One of them, Dr. Kessler, is convinced that the support for SQM is strong and complete, although even he had to admit, SQM is not what we would like to see in a physics theory.  Dr. Marsh is educated like Kessler, but can see, by adopting a perspective rooted in 1926, that GUTCP should be taken seriously.  It is a dialogue that I can imagine being taken seriously by academics, although they'd probably never admit it. Google's NotebookLM was used by me to discuss the essay by Schrodinger, Are There Quantum Jumps? , which is discussed in this recently produced Claude dialogue.  This essay has been a frequent subject of my thoughts and writing.   I get a little nervous when I am c...

A new website was recently published by me, composed by Claude.  It began with a large collection of Dr. Mills' and his coauthors journal publications that I had in a folder.  I merely asked Claude to produce the website and tell me how to publish it at no cost on the Internet.  I specified basic features that would allow the articles to be listed by author, chronologically and to be searched by word or phrase.  In addition, I included a search engine for News items on the Brilliant Light Power website . Because these papers are generally copyrighted, I had Claude produce paraphrased summaries in a quite readable form.  The reader is reminded to obtain the original paper to obtain graphical and other authoritative information. The obvious purpose is to facilitate the study of the work of Dr. Mills and related scientists. I have been in discussion with Dr. Raj Pala about what kinds of experiments he might find most fruitful in his investigations into the empiric...
