Even you agreed there was sumthin there at one point, before Rossi came along. LENR was worthwhile before Rossi came along and will be worthwhile long after he’s gone.

“So if you can do fusion and not create heat, whats the point?”
Cold Fusion creates heat. That is the point. Hot fusion takes place at incredibly high temperatures and pressures such as in an H-bomb.

Thank you very much for finding my comment from 12 years ago before I eventually concluded through years of following stories and leads that “cold fusion” or LENR as we now refer to it seems to be a dead end. What eventually are revealed to be chemical reactions or other ways of surreptitiously adding energy to what appears to be a bonified exothermic process have filled us with hope on numerous occasions. Then there is “testing” by various means to indicate byproducts of fusion are present. But over time it all seems to eventually end up the same way... either intentional or unintentional “hoaxary”.
I actually do salute true believers such as yourself and Wonder Warthog who likely will never come to the same conclusion. But I cannot go along with it at this point. And since the two of you allow no discussion on your threads from skeptical individuals there is no chance that you will be the ones to convince me otherwise. But I am typically content to let the two of you and your minions carry on, with the secret sliver of hope that somehow there is a chance that at some point your faith will be rewarded.
I am assuming that you are already familiar with the links found in the following PowerPoint from Professor David J. Nagel of George Washington University presented at the ARPA-E Workshop on Low-Energy Nuclear Reactions this last October. It is a good and hopeful presentation on LENR found at the first link.
