As noted this meant Gene was not murdered by an establishment conspirator, but rather by an ordinary crazed drug addict. The larger problem with all of this talk is that it probably does the whole field of alternative-energy a huge *disservice* to suggest things like this on little or no evidence. I agree. Even if it is true, it does not do us any good talking about it without evidence. It reinforces the notion among the majority of open-minded readers of these posts - or of LENR-CANR and so forth - that the only people who could possibly believe that low level nut-cases like Meyer would attract the attention of the putative PetroMafia are those who will believe in anything especially of a high level conspiracy nature. True again. BUT, however, the PetroMafia is real and they have suppressed technology. The upcoming movie discussed here, Who Killed the Electric Car? is a good example. So was the destruction of the public transportation system in Los Angeles in the 1940s, and the bankruptcy of the LUZ Corp. solar thermal generating systems. I would not call these actions conspiracies because the corporations that suppressed this technology acted shamelessly and overtly. You might as well say the tobacco companies have been conducting a conspiracy to spread cancer, or coal-fired plants conspire to secretly kill 20,000 people per year. It is no conspiracy when you boldly commit crimes in public. Along the same lines, I do not think Park and Zimmerman are conspiring to suppress cold fusion and fire anyone in the federal government who supports cold fusion. How can you call the conspiracy when they announced their plans in front of a crowd of a thousand cheering supporters at the APS?!? You might call it a witch hunt, or an academic pogrom. The DoE's de facto policy of attacking cold fusion is also overt. They make no bones about it, and although they do sometimes lie to the public -- claiming they may fund experiments -- it is a gratuitous lie. It is a mere formality. They do not expect anyone to believe it. See: http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/LENRCANRthedoelies.pdf Even if one accepts that there are rogue elements in government (there are), and in a handful of corporations, such as Halliburton - that is far from the pervasive kind of evil it would take to murder someone whose greatest value, under any circumstances, might be as martyr value or as mobilization value. More to the point, Meyer was suppressing himself more effectively than any conspirators could have hoped to accomplish. Meyer was, as I often say, his own worst enemy. This is true of many cold fusion researchers as well. Why molest an enemy who is as assiduously destroying himself? The suggestion of a conspiracy to murder Meyer is ludicrous IMHO. Now if someone took out a real genius of the level of Puthoff, R. Mills, George Miley, Bockris, Mizuno etc - then yes - that would be a huge concern. If these people ever begin to make serious technical progress, and the oil companies become aware of their activity, then I think they may soon be in grave danger. I doubt they will be murdered, but I expect they will be fired on trumped up charges, and their funding cut off. They will be given the kind of treatment being meted out to Taleyarkhan by Nature and the rest of the physics establishment. As things now stand the oil companies are not the least bit concerned about CF as far as I know. As Beene indicated, they are busy fighting global warming researchers, and spreading false rumors about wind energy, such as the notion that it kills significant numbers of birds. Now that we have said all these rotten things about Meyer, I think we should recall that he did impress some smart people, such as Adm. Griffin. I am haunted by the possibility that he may have actually been on to something real. - Jed
RE: [Vo]: Re: Stan Meyer - Autopsy Report
I wonder about Paul Brown. He warned everyone he was being threatened, discontinued his work - then re-started it later and died in an accident soon after. If tens of thousands die for oil in war, should inventors be off limits? Most of us have enough sense to avoid walking thru crime ridden neighborhoods or carefully walk across busy streets. Do we act the same way about disruptive technology? If the NSA monitors disruptive technology, are we to trust them as regards the definition of what disruptive means? Does it concern terrorism - or things that wreck financial markets by replacing oil? Do we get to openly debate the issue? Does Congress? Do various researchers remain alive as long as they fail to enter the popular realm of credibility? Can they be neutralized by ridicule and rank disbelief? -Original Message- From: Jones Beene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2006 4:11 PM To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: [Vo]: Re: Stan Meyer - Autopsy Report Oops, meant to say- ...nor was Gene Mallove murdered as part of a conspiracy.

Indeed, the Brown case seems a lot more serious to me. On the other hand, as I recall Brown was known for driving cars recklessly at high speed. Who knows what to make of it? I think the lesson for the guy who comes up with a practical cold fusion reactor is: keep no secrets. Publish everything. If thousands of experts worldwide know what you have done and how to replicate, because you distributed papers worldwide via the Internet, there is no point to killing you or trying to suppress your work. This strategy is described in the thriller movie Three days of the Condor. This movie centers around a high-level U.S. government conspiracy to invade an oil-rich country in the Middle East on false pretenses. Needless to say, this is a ridiculous contrived fantasy -- such things could not happen in real life! -- but we can still learn from it. - Jed

He has spent countless hours debunking hydrinos CQM in particular and FE in general. I honestly do not believe he is merely a defender of the faith. He is up to something more sinister, IMO.

Re: [Vo]: Re: Stan Meyer - Autopsy Report
Chris mentions Paul Brown - by coincidence there was this about him on CBSmarketwatch.com today SPECIAL REPORT Short sellers: The good, the bad and the ugly Some have exposed fraud; others become the scandal themselves SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- In the escalating debate over whether short sellers do more harm than good, the case of Anthony Elgindy neatly gives detractors a bogeyman they can use to drum up support for their cause. On Dec. 19, 2001, an FBI agent ran a search on the agency's confidential National Crime Information Center database and came across criminal history information about Paul Brown, chief executive of a company called Nuclear Solutions. Less than three hours later, Elgindy emailed a message to subscribers of his investment Web sites: NSOL -- CEO, Dr. Paul Maurice Brown, is a convicted felon ... In the following days, Elgindy and others put out still more information on the Internet about Brown's alleged criminal record. Over the next month, he shorted shares of the nuclear-waste technology company several times and recommended that his subscribers do the same. From early December 2001 to the end of January 2002, shares of the Nuclear Solutions lost almost half their value. Elgindy's lawyer, borrowing from a common short-sellers refrain, sought to portray his client as a hero for trying to expose phony companies. To U.S. Attorney Alan Vinegrad, the scheme was a shocking partnership between an experienced stock manipulator and law-enforcement agents, undertaken for their illicit personal gain. Last year, a jury in Brooklyn agreed and convicted Elgindy of conspiracy, securities fraud and extortion surrounding Nuclear Solutions (NSOL : nuclear solutions inc com NSOL1.21, -0.06, -4.7%) , wasn't a convicted felon after all. An illegal drug possession charge against him was dismissed in 1991, the Wall Street Journal reported. He died in a car crash in April 2002. The Elgindy case does little to help defenders of short sellers, who frequently claim they help keep markets ticking and contribute to accurate share prices by making sure the prices of stocks reflect negative as well as positive information about companies. Elgindy's scheme, and several similar ones described in the grand jury indictments that followed, is at one extreme end of the debate about whether short sellers are good or bad for the markets. On the other end of the spectrum, short-seller advocates like David Rocker want investors and regulators to focus on the supposed benefits that shorts have. Although there have been occasional instances in which short sellers have been accused of circulating misleading stories, these instances are dwarfed both in number and magnitude by the misleading stories circulated by long holders and the issuers themselves, David Rocker, a leading short seller, told a Congressional hearing in 2003. Rocker cites a long list of frauds and accounting abuses at companies including Enron, Tyco International Ltd. (TYC : Tyco International Ltd CNO23.61, -0.19, -0.8%) , Boston Chicken and Lernout Hauspie Speech Products that he says were uncovered by short sellers. 'Out of thin air'
