For this reason, the government should have a big incentive to embrace transmutation, if for no other reason to get rid of radioactive waste. Yet, the government shows no interest. Therefore, rational self-interest does not play a role in the government's approach. This leaves only ignorance and incompetence as an explanation. I hope people who voted for Bush are getting what they want, because the rest of us are not.
As much as I love to hate Bush, let us be fair about this. Bush #1 and Clinton also ignored CF. Administration officials might be forgiven for overlooking this forum, or not reading LENR-CANR.org, but excess heat and tritium results have been published by some of our National Labs, and Iwamura's transmutation results were published in Japan's leading journal of physics.
The Bush administration conducted the 2004 DoE review of cold fusion, which is more than the Clinton administration did in eight years.
