A free investigation is what you do without the need to ask permission
to anyone.

Apparently Rossi is not proposing the e-cat.

He sold to Industrial Heat Inc. (part of the Cherokee group) and, as
Levi wrote in the paper, the e-cat they used was build by Industrial
Heat, not Rossi.

I can understand you don't trust Rossi, but in this you are not trusting
Industrial Heat. This is because I think skepticism is becoming
pathological.
Now, Industrial Heat bought Rossi know-how and HW just an year ago.
They are not complaining and apparently continue to keep him as head of
research.

People is free to try independent replication, just don't ask Rossi or
Industrial Heat Inc. how they did before they have some solid patents on
it. Then you can replicate the patent.

This is because I support prizes (even very large prizes). You pay them
for indisputable results only if they deliver them on your pre
determined terms.
