Rapidly you backtrack when your credentials are called into question, when it was You who claimed to have the credentials in the first place.
Put up or shut up.
I know, I know, you’ll do neither.
No back tracking on my part. I just find it a waste of my time and effort to try and convince people that the earth is round, we landed on the moon, and that ‘cold fusion’ (by whatever name is currently used) has yet to meet certain principles of scientific experimentation. When replicated tests are done ( by other scientists than those making the claims) and theories presented which are consistent with that data then we can talk. I don’t mind if researchers want to spend money on it. Heck we have spent 40 nears and countless dollars on the National Ignition Facility. The breathless hype and name calling do not enhance anyone’s efforts in the scientific community. It wasn’t but a short time ago that scientists from CERN were claiming to have broken the speed of light-—and after all was said and done ( because the data were open and others could test theories as well as set ups) they found out they had a loose wire in a connector.
Extraordinary claims ( and cold fusion from the beginning has made extraordinary claims about the amount of product and what was measured and how) still require extraordinary proof. That has been in short supply from the cold fusion community.
