Jed Asked: “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?”
That information is personally confidential and only being asserted by Bob Cook, like much of the correspondence of Vortex-l, Twitter, Facebook, main news media, The Executive, etc.,etc.,etc. It could be merely fake news. Bob Cook Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows 10 From: Alain Sepeda<mailto:alain.sep...@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2018 12:33 AM To: Vortex List<mailto:vortex-l@eskimo.com> Subject: Re: [Vo]:Cold fusion research reported at Oak Ridge many things governement do are not done because it is good or bad for a supreme interest of the Nation, or of a big lobby, but because the worker want to avoid troubles, please his boss, get a promotion, or sometime a crazy desire by this lone worker to make world better as he imagine it. the problem is when this lone worker is a boss, he can engage an agency in something great or evil, if he succeed in making the interests of his subordinates matching his great idea. There is no NASA/NSA/DoE/USPTO plan, just various people having various ambition, fears, and hope. fear is a great motive for most people... 2018-02-22 0:16 GMT+01:00 Jed Rothwell <jedrothw...@gmail.com<mailto:jedrothw...@gmail.com>>: bobcook39...@hotmail.com<mailto:bobcook39...@hotmail.com> <bobcook39...@hotmail.com<mailto:bobcook39...@hotmail.com>> wrote: Oak Ridge has LENR categorized as Battelle confidential or has a dark government classified program regarding LENR or cold fusion as it is commonly called. Their action to remove the reference is telling IMHO 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. - Jed
