Taubes is not too difficult to understand. Ambitious, and cold fusion
was intended to be a book that could sell. He jumped to conclusions
as to the story he wanted to sell, and pursued it and interpreted the
facts in the light of the story.
He happens to have done a great job with salt and the whole
fat/cholesterol hypothesis, but obviously a lousy one with cold
fusion. Looks like he never looked back to review his conclusions,
and he clearly had an axe to grind from the beginning, from comments
in the story above.
Feynman's warning was for other people, not for him....
