“Hot” or “Cold”, “Low energy” or “High energy” has to do with the energy of the participating ingredients needed to make the reaction go, not the amount of energy available if the reaction goes.
Interesting. Thanks.
I’ll believe in “cold fusion” when they pry it from my cold, dead hands......................
Certainly a great improvement for flux capacitors.
Practical Cold Fusion could rapidly accelerate Global Warming and should be banned to save humanity.

Wouldn’t 10kw vs. a 1 metaton detonation be considered “Low energy”? I could power my house for almost a year.
Kind of like when Elroy Jetson was playing with his chemistry set splitting atoms just like any red blooded boy would do in the utopian future. His mother, Jane, scolded him not to get all those messy atoms all over her clean floor.

An experimental "cold fusion" device produced this pattern of "triple tracks" (shown at right), which scientists say is caused by high-energy nuclear particles resulting from a nuclear reaction (Credit: Pam Boss, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center (SPAWAR))
only to fail on re-entry in the last hundred feet. (Er, meters.)
What? You think it failed? LOL! That’s just the cover story. Remeber that face on Mars? Hmmmm? ;^)
I just ran through quite a few of the articles in science daily about “LENR”. I’m beginning to believe that in time, Pons and Fleischman are going to get the credit for their experiment that I have always believed they deserved. I don’t have any idea why they managed to get that thing to work back then, but I’ve always believed they were honest scientists who managed to somehow get everything exactly right, or that some trace impurity was responsible for their experiment working. If they are someday fully vindicated, as it seems increasingly possible they will be, it will be a fascinating lesson for all of science.
How many times have we heard this?
The Global Warming crowed is opposed to both wind and solar as well. They oppose all energy.
Solar:

You are correct. What leftists really oppose is people.
Notice that whenever they get a chance, they kill as many as they can.
No sane person would like for this to be a fluke. I can’t say it’s impossible, but unless they can somehow concentrate this this seemingly fleeting phenomenon I’m skeptical. Skeptical by nature so no surprise there.
Cash fishing.
