This detailed, specific critical list of many seemingly arbitrary data alterations in documents by Michael McKubre about a specific series of runs, that have been at times been cited as strong evidence for a predicted correlation of output heat with fusion of deuterium into helium within palladium cathodes in electrolytic cells, is an absolutely devastating critique that presents evidence that is difficult to refute and that justifies extreme skepticism about the claims:
http://newenergytimes.com/v2/sr/McKubreM4/20111220LetterToSRI.pdf Personally, I regret seeing evidence that an apparently legitimate, careful, trustworthy scientist with a long-standing positive reputation and support within a mainstream scientific establishment has become so entangled in his urgent crusade for strong evidence to legitimate CF as to blunder into making data alterations that would inevitably be exposed. Skepticism about all apparently credible research in CF has to be the pragmatic strategy, if any successful device that shows any apparent anomaly is ever to be evolved and widely replicated. within mutual service, Rich Murray
