"Skeptics" have proven themselves incapable of objectivity. Anyone who has read the cold fusion literature carefully and is not convinced not objective, not a scientist, and not rational. (At least, not with regard to this subject.) That is like studying physics and doubting Newton's laws, or studying biology and not being convinced that evolution occurred. To reject cold fusion you must first reject chemistry and thermodynamics going back to the mid-19th century. This is a spurious argument. There is a difference between a measure of change and the "laws" or "theory" or whatever which is purported to be the best explanation of the change. It is far more important to have an experienced technician who can build a good apparatus and make decent measurements. Harry
