Hey I've lost track are we getting near the next scam declaration from Mills?
I'm so ready to see how he is gonna word it. Will he use the same old same old structure from before and try something new and different? Will he change the name of his company again maybe to 'Nolightever' or something else? |

Not likely to hear anything new for at least a couple of months. After all BLP gave its second quarter update in early April.
In case you missed it: https://www.brilliantlightpower.com/...ate-040418.pdf Pages 9, 10 have General Operations update Page 18 has some info on the ceramic Suncell. Near the bottom there is info on analysis of the web like substance which was news to me. |

I thought the first part of the presentation was full of fluff, but the use in the second part of random still photos and every chart and graph ever created to create a sciency look was even more "impressive" (but perhaps in a not so good way).
"Our presentation doesn't have enough evidence and science! We need more sciency stuff!" "I've found some 3-d charts on the internet" "What, of our stuff?" "Don't be ridiculous! They're really nice charts though" "Fine, add them in. Stick some arrows on it, put science words near them, and make sure there's at least three greek letters near parts that look important." "Okaaay.... how's this?" "Almost perfect - just needs one of those equations with lots of bracket things and superscripts." "Ah, I have just the thing. It's the equation for rate of decay of capacitance in a toroidal non-newtonian liquid magnetic field." "Is that a thing?" "Does it matter?" "Hmmm.... it is pretty. Save that and print. We're done here." |

Mills and BLP are an abusive spouse.
"Baby, I know I've been promising to change for 30 years, but THIS time I MEAN it! Just give me another chance and a few more months! PLEASE BABY!" "Oh, and another few million dollars too. Thanks baby." |

Here's your new car. It has an "arbitrary horsepower" engine. When you step on the gas pedal, it might produce anywhere from 150 to 500 horsepower.

Not a problem. Since hydrinos are massless, non-reactive, undetectable particles that form long lasting compounds that can do anything you can also use them to attach hearts to anything you want.
While drinking the free beer. But seriously markie, how can you claim there are independent observations of hydrino (compounds) when Mills himself now claims that is not the case now? Isn't it hard to defend someone who cannot keep his own claims straight? |

When has Mills claimed that there have been no independent observations of hydrino signatures? Prof Chary has performed these experiments at Rowan, over the course of years.
If you have this in mind from the quarterly report:

Nearly 30 years of failure. At least 20 years of claiming a commercial product was going to be released within 18 to 24 months. And yet you still support him. At the very least it’s time to admit he and his team lack the technical chops to produce a commercial product. It’s just not going to happen. If you really believe Hydrinos are real it’s time to step up and start your own company to produce a generator. You don’t even need to worry about patents as Mills and his company don’t HAVE any valid patents! |

A lie about "hydrino signatures" over years of experiments by Prof Ramanujachary
25 May 2018 markie: A lie about "hydrino signatures" over years of experiments by Prof Ramanujachary at Rowan University.
28 November 2017 markie: A lie about providing a citation to current hydrino research at Rowen University. markie claimed the presentation of a validation report (the one from 2009?) at a 2016 business meeting. What we can read is a comment from him that is not about "hydrino signatures". Rowan University does not have any mention of hydrino research. K. V. Ramanujachary has never published anything on hydrino over those alleged years. The 2016 SunCell validation report by Prof Ramanujachary does not contain the word hydrino ! This was done at BLP by BLP people using BLP equipment. The 2011 validation report on the failed CIHT failed technology contains "hydrino" twice in the summary. The title is "Validation of Electrical Power Generation...". This was done at BLP by BLP people using BLP equipment. There are 2009 technical reports of excess heat generation from other failed products (maybe not at BLP this time). The evidence is that Prof Ramanujachary was paid three times to produce heat and power generation reports for BLP. 25 May 2018 markie: A lie that Prof Ramanujachary did independent experiments. A paid consultant is by definition is not independent. Supervising BLP people at BLP using BLP equipment is not independent experiments. |

Brilliant Light Power Going To Market - Free Energy Generator Part 3
What we’re seeing is the Free Energy scam version of the bad spelling and grammar in Nigerian 419 scams. People who understand what independent verification is don’t get to the point Markie is at. If he understood how evidence works in science at a remedial or better level he would not be offering BLP press releases as examples of “Independent” verification. The shoddy and easily debunked nature of BLP’s claims is not a flaw in their scam, it’s a feature. It filters out the people who can see through the scam. |

Next you'll tell us you didn't realize what businesswire is or what a PR firm does.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill%2...ton_Strategies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_Wire Filtering your own self-congratulatory press releases through PR firms isn't going to fool many people. It does apparently fool enough people to keep money coming in, though. |

Oh, this is noting compared to what will happen when Mills dies. The conspiracy theories insisting he's been "murdered" will be very entertaining. He'll be enshrined as a martyr by the tinfoil hatters. The fact that NOBODY will EVER be able to produce a Hydrino based heater or generator will be blamed on "The Powers that Be" somehow "suppressing" some key piece of information.
I'm sure one of the people at his lab will start a fire to cover up evidence of the con, which will then be the "proof" the government "destroyed" some vague and amorphous piece of technology or knowledge that was what allowed "The Mills generators to work." |

Yeah I suspect that the scam will outlive Mills. You have to wonder if he is actually the guy pushing it now? Have others realizing they can keep the money train going are now pushing it while keeping a confused and befuddled 'believing' Mills as the front man? That I suspect will certainly happen once he dies.
