'Cold Fusion' is clearly a term with mucho popularizing potential... and most importantly: **it is NOT all that inaccurate a term, considering its subject-matter**. But it is *precisely* because of this popularizing potential -- and thus its immediate threat to certain vested interests -- which is AFAIC the root cause behind all the attempts to marginalize the term, and make it synonymous with crank quackery and 'fringe fyzix', etc.
