You’re relatively new here, so you might not be aware of how controversial this subject is here on FR.

Back in 2008 I started posting LENR articles, and in 2010 I wrote an article about how I made money on Cold Fusion.

Then along came this guy Andrea Rossi. Promising results at irst, along with 3rd party testing. But the guy looked and acted like such a scam artist that it triggered the a$$#0/e brigade here on FR. I posted Rossi articles for 2&half months, but they hounded legitimate cold fusion threads for 2&half YEARS. We never had an experimentalist like you on those threads. It got pretty ugly.

I kept asking the mods for protection, a lot like how the qanonsense nutjobs have protection on their own q threads today. One of the mods even outed himself, having posted as a pure a$$#0/e on cold fusion threads but when he opused oout it turns out he wasn’t very conservative nor did he have any scientific training whatsoever. Bigfoot and chemtrails were okay with him but he joined the seagulls on the cold fusion threads.

I’ll probably be restarting the cold fusion ping list, but it is likely to be short lived if we don’t get legitimate moderator protection.

I'd be quite happy to include your threads on my Nut-Job Conspiracy Theory pings, for some reason (like the large number of times the N-J Cs turn out to be true!) they don't get flamed much...

I've had a soft spot in my heart for cold fusion since day one.

At the time my thinking mirrored rdcbn1's take.

"I’ll probably be restarting the cold fusion ping list, but it is likely to be short lived if we don’t get legitimate moderator protection."

I am sure that all the old skeptopaths will be out in force....

And then there is SAFIRE.
