How long did it take from Budnorz and Muller>s announcement of "high-T"
superconductivity in cuprates for someone to reproduce their results?
How long did it take to find a material that it is superconductive at
T > 77 K (i.e. above the boiling point of N2)? How long did it take to
develop a device that used a high-T superconductor?

How many of those developments depended on a detailed theory of the behavior
of high-T superconductors?

How long has it been since Pons and Fleischmann claimed to have a
*working* cold fusion water heater?

If you believe that it is possible for a conspiracy of the sort you
describe to suppress the development of cold fusion, then whatever
experience of the world that you might have obviously failed to
overcome the short-circuit in your brain.

If you think that cold fusion is being suppressed by some kind of
conspiracy, then yes, nothing you say has any basis in fact and is
entirely a figment of your over-worked imagination. If you are
suggesting that the people at U.S. Government labs who reported positive
results for cold fusion experiments deliberately did their experiments
incompetently so that people would think that cold fusion does not exist,
then I would have to guess that it>s not so much overwork as overindulgence
in happy pills.

Why don>t you go through the archives and examine my criticisms of some
of the experiments -- particularly those in which mass spectrometry was
used to detect "products" of cold fusion -- and respond to those criticisms
with actual science instead of a random screed.

Why do you think it is that every Evil Conspiracy is falling all over
itself to pay me for my serivces?

Why do you think that my comments that detailed some of the reasons for
believing that Pd-induced cold fusion is extremely unlikely to be a
real effect are "killing any reasonable and adult discussion"? Is it because
you have no answers for criticisms of the sort raised by Steven Jones
(special relativity prevents a nascent 4He* nucleus from distributing
its excess energy into phonons -- even if a coupling mechanism could be
imagined -- within its lifetime); or that fusion at room temperature has
been observed and that the branching ratio is still 50/50 3He/T; or that
the experimental evidence is irreproducible and generally not far above
the noise; or that Pons and Fleischmann claimed nearly 20 years ago to
have a *working cold fusion device* that no one has seen since?

Well what>s needed is an understanding of the
geodesical properties of D related to e in Pd.
That provides a probability that D+D will be

That mimics a "chain reaction" probability

Who wants a Kiloton nuke in a beer can?

I can improve on that with antimatter.

Do you see the problem?

Our genius for destruction exceeds our ability

A place to begin is to consider the resistance
of a current flowing through a vacuum such as
in a CRT between the cathode and anode.
AFAIK, there is no resistance to current flow
through a vacuum.
