Jed,
I share your amazement. Generally the prediction goes that they never
concede, they take their views with them to the grave.
When I first heard that Voodoo Bob conceded reality of LENR behind closed
doors at a DoE meeting on Dec. 12, 2006 I tried to contact him. He avoided
me. Can't say I blame him.
Those spicy citations you state below...are they Parksie or Petey?

Seriously, I never thought he would concede even this much.
Perhaps we should ask him, now that he agrees it is science, whether he
still thinks he & Zimmerman were wise to "root and fire anyone who
believes in cold fusion" and whether he now takes back his WaPost
accusation that researchers are all criminals, frauds and lunatics.
He would not respond but if someone forced an answer I will bet he would
say that Fleischmann and Pons were criminals, frauds etc. but the latest
group of researchers are not. That's what that jerk Kelves said.
