Vehement EEStor denier, Y_Po, found himself in the hot seat this evening at TheEEStory.com fielding a barage of questions in the chat room. Despite rarely allowing himself to be nailed down to a specific position regarding his EEStor skepticism, Y_Po yielded to a flurry of questions I threw at him as well as several from the chat room audience.The biggest revelation? Y_Po thinks the EEStor Energy Density (20,000J/cc) is possible in principle (but also, unlikely).
"You can do something in that range in principle." -Y_Po
Despite being asked close to 23 times what the relevant ED mechanism might be, Y_Po refused to answer the question. What was interesting is that this revelation contrasts sharply with 2 other skeptics on TheEEStory: Zawy and ee-Tom.
Additionally, Y_Po maintained what he has always maintained which is that EEStor's Dick Weir is not competent and may be a fraudster. The fundamental problem which Y_Po believes Weir and team can not overcome is "saturation."
Catch the whole interview here. Also, if you can figure out what kind of nut I am for conducting that interview and posting this article, please let me know. I am curious.
UPDATE: A rebuttal has been posted questioning my characterization of the interview. Out of fairness, I will post it in it's entirely:
| B, you really have problems with hearing. "In principle" means "not practically possible" :) So your blog record is completely wrong and misleading. I did not admit anything you just finally heard what I have been saying for all this time. |
