Re: [Vo]:Cold Fusion, Wet or Dry?

<<because those who are familiar with the history of catalysis know that 
platinum and palladium are considered to be "poisoned" catalysts if they 
have been in contact with water. In other words, no hydrogen adsorption 
would take place if the catalyst had been poisoned with water, among other 
substances.

So how could the deuterium adsorption take place in a palladium cathode 
under water? Short answer: It couldn't. >>

Blimey Michael - I've never seen this mentioned before! If true, it is a 
*Eureka* observation - well done!!!
