How is it that scientists should ruin entire careers, simply over having been wrong about facts..? But this is NOT really just or all about Science now, is it? It's about MONEY (and all the bourgeois ego life that goes along with the chasing after of that). Only one's position in 'Establishment Science' would be ruined, in this scenario: and 'Establishment Science' is exactly the dog-in-the-manger, as regards cold fusion (and a lot else). So on the one hand, 'Heterodox Science' rails against Establishment Science blocking cold fusion research... but on the other hand -- it appears to be more-or-less accepting of the modus operandi of Establishment Science, as regards the policing of scientists. And of Science. Seems to be a contradiction here.
