I am astonished people are still beating the dead horse of ‘Cold Fusion’. It was demonstrated a long time ago to not be true, and yet people won’t let it go. Science relies on the ability to reproduce an experiment to verify it being true. Cold Fusion has repeatedly failed by that standard.

In fact not true.

“A healthy skepticism is warranted,” says Steven B. Krivit, author of a recent book on cold fusion. “However, the facts show that cold fusion experiments have been demonstrated, reproduced, replicated and published in peer-review journals.”

Experimental evidence consistently demonstrates that nuclear-scale energy, in the form of heat, is being generated without harmful radiation, greenhouse gasses or nuclear waste.

From “Cold Fusion goes back to school at MIT”

You are painting with a very wide brush my friend. His invention has been observed by outside scientists and is said to produce excess heat.

Lets give the man the opportunity to prove his claims.

The theory behind cold fusion involves
a “deflated zeroith orbital” for the
electron in a hydrogen atom
this is generally considered a
violation of known physics

I've seen much of the arguments for this
and believe that the math is not rigorous
