Another thing about letters: It is a good idea to include "bona fides" of some sort, so the editor can check to see if you are for real. Usually I include a list of papers. If I cite China Lake and Texas A&M, I add some titles from them. In this case I think I just included "LENR-CANR.org." They cut that part of the letter out, which is a shame, but anyway, the editor must have checked it, because he wrote "The writer is the author of "Cold Fusion and the Future," and I did not tell them that.
The point is, you want to make it easy for the editor to confirm that there really are "hundreds of peer reviewed papers," or whatever you are claiming. The editor has dozens of letters to go through, and cannot spend any time checking them out. If a letter sounds fishy or kooky, it will be rejected immediately. - Jed
