[Here is a message I sent to few people I know in the media, in
response to Obama's speech.]
I support the president, but it pains me to see that this
administration plans to spend hundreds of billions of dollars on
alternative energy yet it will not allow a single Federal researcher
to do a cold fusion experiment, not even for a few thousand dollars.
I think it is unlikely that Obama is aware of this situation, or that
he or any of his cabinet members realize that cold fusion exists.
It is frustrating beyond words for me to know that the nation plans
to spend trillions of dollars solving the energy crisis when a far
better, far cheaper solution may be at hand.
Many experts in cold fusion say that we cannot know whether cold
fusion will ever become practical and that it is far from being
practical today. I disagree. While I cannot be sure, I believe it is
closer to commercial practicality than most experts realize, but that
it will take much more money than they anticipate: probably hundreds
of millions of dollars. That estimate was made by Mike Melich and
other experts at the NRL who have developed similar technology, using
empirical methods.
