Well, I have to agree with Gibbs, at least in the title. He said that NASA
didn't say anything useful and not that cold fusion is useless

This depends on how you classify the statement. If you expected it to 
help in the Rossi case, sure, it's not useful. But this was not NASA 
intentions. In the other case, where they are promoting LENR, this is 
tremendously helpful / useful. Therefore, I think, Gibbs headline is 
misleading and therefore not useful at all.

I think the question here is WHY?  Why release a video saying LENR is
looking good as a powerful replacement for conventional fossil fuels, then
when questioned about it, Zawodny tells everyone, that it's not useful and
that he's sceptical about it.

Seriously, WTF is going on at NASA?

You need to re-read Zawodny's blog : 
http://joe.zawodny.com/index.php/2012/01/14/technology-gateway-video/


a) They're required to publicize any patent, and a layman's video is 
one way of doing it.


b) Zawodny says that he believes there IS credible evidence for LENR

c) Zawodny says that he has NOT seen credible scientific evidence for 
any clear and convincing demonstrations of any viable **commercial** 
device producing useful amounts of net energy (and then clarifies 
what he means by scientific evidence -- and I think everyone here 
agrees that Rossi's tests didn't amount to that, and that Defkalion 
have showed nothing.)  It's Rossi (and Defkalion) he's skeptical of.


d) The subject heading is a mis-statement of what Gibbs said (ie that 
NASA's statement added nothing useful). Neither Zawodny or Gibbs said 
that LENR couldn't be useful.

I wish 60 Minutes would update their story on CF.  It's been enough time
to see where all the promising research of the old program has gotten.
And I'd love to see them approach Rossi and Defkalion.
In my estimation, that would be absolutely hilarious.  Ever see the number
Dateline NBC did on Dennis Lee, Jeff Otto and their idiotic scam injecting
on-board-generated hydrogen into cars and claiming doubling of mileage
figures?

Video and transcripts of the Lee HHO car runs on water story

Zawodny wrote on his blog:
As for what people are trying to read into this video, specifically
my use of the word “demonstrated”, it is my professional opinion that
the production of excess energy has been demonstrated when the results
of the last 20+ years of experimentation are evaluated. There has been
a lot of work done in the past 20+ years. When considered in aggregate
I believe excess power has been demonstrated. I did not say, reliable,
useful, commercially viable, or controllable.  If any of those other
terms were applicable I would have used them instead. If anything, it
is the lack of a single clear demonstration of reliable, useful, and
controllable production of excess power that has held LENR research
back. As a non-technical piece aimed at the general public, my limited
media training has taught me that less information/detail is generally
better than more. I did not produce or direct the video. While I saw
the video before it was released, I did not learn of it’s release
until the email started pouring in Thursday morning.

He paints a dismal picture of progress in the field. There has been
more than a single instance of reliable and controllable amounts of
excess heat.The lastest commercial claims, even if they remain
shrouded in trade secrets, should have been expected to arise by now
give the pace of developments in recent years.
