Beside cold fusion problem I would raise that this claim is incoherent with the work of Thomas Kuhn on scientifc revolutions.
Howevet the claim is coherent with tha work of Nassim Nicholas Taleb that explain that history is rewritten so that some members of the mainstream community get the paternity of the revolution. 2013/5/3 Joshua Cude <[email protected]> > ii) In spite of inertia in science, the most revolutionary ideas in > physics were accepted immediately. beside that, the evidence a clear... there is no hope to convince. as explain thomas kuhn, and as are founded the theory of Roland benabou the evidences are selected to match the delusion. Theories (it is a fraud, against it is real) cannot be compared because mainstream exclude some facts, or reinterpret it there is no point in discussing, I am sorry, the solution as explain nassim Nicholas Taleb, will came from the garage, from the engineers, from Tesla, Edison and Wilbur Wright... as usual, and all will be rewritten afterward. sorry for all the scientist here, there is no hope, until it warm the home of a swedish eskimo, and light the house of an african family. Thomas kuhn explain that fact are ignored until there is a total and perfect theory and huge practical incentive to accept reality. Funny to see how the evident results of thomas kuhn are ignored... until Hyperion and e-cat are sold and running, there won't be enough incentive to accept reality. and for theory there won't be enough data and funding until commercial reactors produce cash. only hope for scientist will be to ally together, partner with commercial companies, so that it work... Forget theory, develop phenomenological models, improve, engineer, make cash, gather data, and finally theory will appear like a kid in a loving couple. "theory first" is a western myth like the scientific method. Science is a human activity, like politic, business, charity, and art. money, corruption, delusion, passion, network, manipulation influence...
