Shocking and tragic news from Steven B. Krivit:
It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Gene Mallove, who was killed on May 14, 2004 apparently due to some sort of involvement with a property dispute. It is considered by the police to be a homicide and an investigation is underway.
Gene is survived by his wife Joanne, son Ethan and daughter Kim. No funeral arrangements are known at this time.
Gene Mallove, who, in his 1991 book "Fire from Ice: Searching for the Truth behind the Cold Fusion Furor," was the first to courageously and boldly express the truth behind cold fusion, long before any science journalist even dared to ask questions that challenged the prevailing view. For 15 years, Gene maintained the cold fusion "torch" at great personal sacrifice, which initially drew many to learn the truth behind cold fusion.

It won't. Not ever! It's just a scam to generate 'Research' money................FRegards
Now WHY would you do that?
"...California is experiencing rolling blackouts due to power shortages.
Conventional engineering, planned ahead, could have prevented these
blackouts, but it has been politically expedient to ignore the inevitable.
We do not know if Cold Fusion will be the answer to future energy needs,
but we do know the existence of Cold Fusion phenomenon through
repeated observations by scientists throughout the world.
It is time that this phenomenon be investigated
so that we can reap whatever benefits accrue from additional scientific understanding.
It is time for government funding organizations to invest in this research"

Fellow scientist ping. :(
As a casual observer of free energy development, and a fan of Nikola Tesla, I regret not ever knowing him. I wasn't even aware of his resources and contributions until reading the article.
May God bless and keep his family, and bring justice to the murderer quickly.
What was his Freep-name?
I am sad to hear of this brutal murder. Prayers for his family.
There is now a news article and link..could you put this back in news?
I think it was vlad.

I recall having seen his posts. I had read the book and seen online copies of the magazine. It was easily googled as a "cold fusion" search until a software package adopted the same name.
This is incredibly sad and a great loss.
I think it's amazing that to this date the cold fusion phenomena has not, at least to my knowledge, been adequately explained.
Please extend your prayers to the family of this FReeper . . .
Prayers for Dr. Eugene F. Mallove. Prayers for his family and friends.
Most tragic. My prayers are with is family. Thank you, Diogenesis for letting us know. - E
Rest in peace, Dr. Gene Mallove. Prayers for his family at this sorrowful time.
Thanks for the heads up. Poor guy. I hope they get the folks that did this. Soon.
Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me.
The Carriage held but just ourselves
And Immortality
