Howdy Jones, Confrontational !!..Challenging.. This can be done by forming a group of people under an entire new "banner" that has as it's strategy a.. "dare hot fusion to prove it".. The hor fusion people have used this strategy with success.. why can't it be turned around? A letter worded.. " You people have had 50 years to produce. you have been given billions.. now where's the beef? If you haven't had any provable results to date, It's time to put the research money into LENR programs that have merit and proven results. A separate group can be so bold as to ""question" the motives and the money in such a way as to suggest an "investigation". Richard
> Bold means bold.. Well one bold step would be to suggest the institution of a distinct "Office for Low Energy Nuclear Research" which is under DoE at the very top level ... but NOT controlled by NRC and not under its influence! There are valid historical reasons for this going back to MIT in 1990, and the deliberate falsification of data. The stakes are too high to allow hot fusion and fission advocates to control and denigrate this research. I would suggest that Peter Hagelstein be appointed the first director and the 'hot fusion' oriented people like Peter Zimmerman be excluded from this side of the aisle, although I am sure he will have a place on other side.
