Ed, Nothing I've said here makes any reference to the topic of LENR. It is entirely possible that LENR is real and Rossi is a fraud.

Hot fusion is dead. It will never be a practical source of energy in its present form. I'm not the only person who has come to this conclusion. Nevertheless, as long as money is spent on this method, a large self interest is supported to reject CF and to continue funding HF. That is the reality of the world. As for questioning Rossi, this needs to be done. However, it can be done while accepting the reality of the LENR effect. The only unknown is whether Rossi is using LENR to make energy. I believe he is and with increasing success. I wish him well. Nevertheless, it does not make any difference to me and to anything I hold dear whether he is a fraud or not. He will succeed or fail based on his own efforts. I'm much more interested in the fraud the financial industry applies to the housing market.

This is exactly the situation. Physics has sold the governments of the world on spending money for research that has practically no value. This use of money limits what else can be explored and greatly distorts what can be discovered. LENR has been rejected and held to a very high standard simply because it threatens this spending, as you so clearly state. When LENR is finally applied at a level that even an idiot will have to accept, the physics community will have to explain why this acceptance took so long when so much evidence was available and when the need for the energy was so great. Careful evaluation and rational skepticism is important but rational limits must be applied because EVERYTHING believed by science can be rejected by a determined skeptic. We would still be in the Dark Ages if rational limits to skepticism had not been agreed to and applied in science. Why is so hard to do now with LENR?
