That's a recent example too. I am not aware of any threats of violence in the history cold fusion, except against Stan Pons. This was an academic fight. Professors do not resort to violence. They are not capable of it. * There were incidents of people dumping horse manure on experiments, destroying data, throwing experimental equipment into the dumpster and so on, but no real violence. If cold fusion begins to succeed commercially I'm sure there will be physical threats. There will be sabotage, firebombing and so on. There always is. Heck I know of examples in the fast food business, computers, the hotel business . . . Where there is big money, there will be violence. You can count on that. > Wake up and get real. Amen. - Jed * As I mentioned here, the only professor I know who was capable of violence was the late J. P. Vigier. He was a trained assassin who killed a number of German officers in World War II. He once demonstrated the technique on me. "You grab the guy like this, hold him here, and bang" (with his finger). He could have killed me in 5 seconds flat, even though he was a short guy in his 80s. Tough as nails.
