Actually, there is quite a bit of evidence that we "have" seen it in nature. The same people are denying THAT just as strongly as they are LENR, and with as little justification.....it doesn't match their theories.

Really. Give examples. Provide the references. Only peer-reviewed references in established reputable physics journals, please. I won't consider "papers" posted on an online "physics journal" that was created for the purpose of publishing stuff that couldn't possibly be published in a real scientific journal.

Can't and won't. I read widely and don't keep track of what particular facts I saw where. I read for my own benefit and edification, not to track URL's to win (or even further) arguments. In general, what I recall is that some groups are claiming to have detected spikes of neutrons during earthquakes. I believe the term "piezonuclear" is associated with the work. Which, of course, the physicists who put theory ahead of experiment say cannot possibly happen. There is a separate hypothesis that isotopic abundances for elements in the earth's interior don't precisely match those in solar space, and the researcher is saying that cold fusion might explain those isotopic differences.

"Only peer-reviewed references in established reputable physics journals, please."

Since, as I recall, this work was in geology, it is quite unlikely to be posted in an "established physics journal". There are other fields of science besides physics that are just as legit. And less hobbled by the erroneous notion that "if theory forbids it, it cannot exist".

"I won't consider "papers" posted on an online "physics journal" that was created for the purpose of publishing stuff that couldn't possibly be published in a real scientific journal."

Frankly, Scarlett, I could give a flying damn what you will or won't "accept". But I guess that is what keeps you from reading Beaudette's book and following up on the papers referenced therein.
