Well, there seems to be no enthusiasm for this proposed letter of
mine, so I shall drop the idea.
I shall send a message for myself by e-mail and regular mail, rather
than posting it on the web site. The president-elect will be
receiving millions of messages, so there is no likelihood it will get
through or have an impact.
I sent the following message to some researchers that I had hoped
would sign the letter:
I do hope that you people will make efforts to contact the new
administration by other means. I recommend you coordinate your
efforts, and present a clear message.
Let me repeat the key point that I have made here: you must ASK for
support, or you will surely fail to get it. I think it is unlikely
that any of Obama's people are aware of the status of cold fusion, so
of course they will not help us. As you know, Ed thinks they probably
are aware. Perhaps he has inside information that I do not know about.
To put in a more positive way, quoting Matthew 7:7: Seek and thou
shalt find; ask and it shall be given unto thee. . . .
Anyway, best of luck to all researchers. I shall get back to editing
the ICCF-14 proceedings, after spending a week politicking, and an
emotional & gratifying night watching the election returns.
