Greetings Vortex, Yes, the Newspapers have been real whores in their treatment of Cold Fusion /Fleischmannn and Pons et al, and yet they will take the money from advertising cold fusion products in the future. I should be corrected: Prostitution does provide a service for money- and they are a high percentages of satisfied customers. So..newspapers are worse than "whores". Belles d Nuit accept my apologies.
My local newspapers have informed me that they are not interested in covering Cold Fusion, since it is not local news. Perhaps should an errant 100 mile diameter comet be predicted to hit California- this also would not be worthy of coverage. For years , I have been a reader of Popular Science. mark.jan...@bonniercorp.com I sent him endless e-mails on the topic. Also anytime I saw a Bloomberg Oil article or a Wall Street Journal x...@wsj.com or madmo...@cnbc.com .. I would send the best CF report available..and never a comment or reply. Mark Gibbs of Forbes has been a "breath of fresh air". I even got thank you replies, and I await his timely coverage. With newspapers, they usually call the chemistry or physics department of a large university for comments on a new technology. These reporters..stop..at the first call of "rubbish". Local newspapers are good for covering mindless-endless solar energy articles, windmill articles, scandals, rape, personal misfortunes and the like. As for getting an insight into our future or inspiring new scientists ..poor..would be a most inadequate description. My hope is that my local newspaper spells my name correctly in the obiturary section- I cannot expect anything more from them. The Truth is Out There, Ron Kita
