Both HTSC and CF were discovered before their time both are very different from what was thought in the moments of discovery and both need new tools, concepts and ideas in order to be understood.. For LENR I recommend you to watch very carefully and without prejudices what our colleague Axil says.

It was parallel thinking, I well know each field has its own characteristics and fate. Cold Fusion had the problem of reproducibility from the very start this is the real cause of its bad reputation. Theoretical weakness has just added to the problem- it seems to be so intellectual. I understand

Reproducibility is indeed the crux of most alt/fringe science technologies. Conventional science is not so willing to accept hard to reproduce effects as real, effects where not all of the requirements for reproducibility are known or readily controllable. This does not mean that these effects

maye be they could change their position because a board of physicist did not publish a Fatwa claiming tha HTSC was pseudo-science and crook job, and because it was easier to reproduce... the pattern of thing that are accepted are qite clear : - fact should be so huge that it is stupid to deny -
