You mean "at night," not "knight," but that was a delightful mistake.

You are describing the life of any researcher, including all the cold
fusion researchers I know. As Stan Pons said, if we are even half right
that's reason to celebrate in this business. Most of the time you are all
wrong.

The plasma fusion people I met at MIT seem to be enjoying their lives and
their work. They are arrogant. They do not seem to have a sense of
futility. They are not living lives of quiet desperation. They are sitting
pretty, pulling down $25 million a month from Uncle Sam. That's an
accomplishment! Sort of.
