As things stand I think there is no chance that any article will be published in a respectable journal or mass media newspaper or website. I do not know anyone who thinking of writing an article, and I probably know most of the people capable of it. Mark Gibbs demonstrated what happens to mainstream reporters who talk about cold fusion. I realize that he denies he was fired for talking about cold fusion, but I think he is being diplomatic. His last article said he planned to talk more about it, so he did not see this coming. I doubt that a paper or mass media article would be helpful. Both sides oppose publicity. Defkalion and Rossi do not want an article, and no journal or newspaper wants to publish one. Generally speaking, in commerce, confidential information is worthless. Most secrets turn out to be mistakes. Anything with intellectual property value should be patented, which soon makes it open to the public. Many patent applications are also worthless. - Jed
