How do you know this? If it is classified or "dark government," how did you
find out about it? That would be secret, would it not?

I have a low regard for the government's ability to keep secrets, and for
the quality of its secrets, because my late father was in the intelligence
business during and after WWII. He once told me:

"if you ever get into the most secret room of the State Department, and you
open the most secret file cabinet and look in the most secret drawer, you
will find a dried up apple and an old newspaper."


In the movie Dr. Strangelove, toward the end the Americans ask the Soviet
ambassador where he got all of his sensitive secret information. He says,
"our source was the New York Times." My mother heard that and said "that
sounds about right."

As far as I know, when references to cold fusion have disappeared from
government agencies, news articles and the like, that has been because
people were embarrassed by the topic, or because the top brass was
infuriated by it. That happened in some Navy research labs.
