"They" can do all kinds of things, and they already have. People such as Robert Park have deliberately and destroyed the reputations of distinguished scientists, fired many scientists, and interfered with funding. They have had members of Congress demand researchers' tax returns and personal papers. However, there is a limit to how they can do, because the information has spread far and wide. People have downloaded 2.6 million copies of the papers at LENR-CANR.org. There are copies of the LENR-CANR library in every nation listed on the Internet, except North Korea, and I expect they have made copies surreptitiously. There is no way that information can hidden. If it becomes generally known that cold fusion is real, millions more copies of the technical information will be downloaded. The facts about cold fusion will be obvious to every chemist and engineer on earth. The authorities can lie to some extent, but they cannot lie so much that they deceive every expert when accurate information is readily available, and cannot be suppressed or erased. > They can make an example of any one of them by murdering one of them and > pretending it was a suicide - or just a "random" crime that never gets > solved. > There are 4,700 authors in the LENR-CANR.org library database. Do you think "the authorities" are capable of killing off that many people? Even if they did kill them all, the information would still be in millions of computers worldwide. In any case, killing a dozen would attract enormous attention to the field. This is real life, not a third-rate made-for-TV thriller. - Jed
