Cold Fusion

Dunno. Everything about it trips all my scam sensors. They seem awfully shy about letting any independent source, particularly any well-known one, replicate and verify the process - or any of their claims.

All the 'news' about it is only showing up on rather dubious websites, to say the least. The few times it's mentioned by more robust sources, they're just as skeptical.

If the thing worked, would it not make commercial sense to have it given the seal of approval by the world's top physics labs and researchers? All it would have to do is work as described...

I notice a few patent and patent application numbers are mentioned on the linked page. It wouldn't be too hard to look those up and see if any replicable data can be determined there.

Yes. I only read the introduction, but the "Convinced they have already adequately proven this to the necessary parties, they are not in a hurry to give demonstrations to curious scientists" bit set off my warning bells.

It sounds too good to be true.

I am very skeptical. They make claims that cannot be falsified.

That is not science.

My alarm bells were going off the moment I saw the words "cold" and "fusion" together on the same page.

The bells sheared off the retaining bolts and ricocheted across the room about a dozen times, then embedded themselves in a solid steel wall the moment I saw ALUMINUM FOIL.

I don't CARE how good of a neutron reflector aluminum foil is, you DON'T use it for something like THIS!

I'm sorry. There have been too many frauds.

My hopes for cold fusion have been ripped out of my heart, electrocuted, incinerated to dust, ashes mixed with water to make clay, shaped into a dildo, baked in atomic fire, glazed with broken glass and then used to rape my left ear until my brains ran down the back of my throat and got pooped out six hours later and flushed.

I will be convinced when one of these !@&$^%@-heads tells the WHOLE WORLD to go screw themselves and builds a FIFTY-KILOWATT GENERATION PLANT and hooks it up to the grid for a full year.

When that happens, I'll amuse myself with the dream that it could possibly be something that has some potential.
