Re: COLD FUSION



Ludwik suggested I post the following:


"Ludwik!


I remind you of a similar case (rejection of an OTB [out of the box]
theory and/or evidence) to cold fusion, i.e. bees and their
communication. I mentioned [so I remember] on PHYS-L that my long ago
friend Adrian
Wenner had to change research because he had challenged a Nobel
Laureate.

Here's a reasonable summary:

A resolution[?]:

I remember seeing Adrian's sonograms of bee piping in the '60's. [He
had a hive in his office (lab.) with a pipe thru an outside window.]

About a week ago Chuck Briton wrote that he does
not believe that a conspiracy against "cold fusion,"
if its claims are correct, can be effective, in a long run.
This made me think about the institutional conspiracy
against the religious reputation of Galileo. Two days
ago I got a private message on the topic of institutional
conspiracy from Dr. Edmund Storms. He is the one
whose letter to the editors of Scientific American was
posted as item #26 on my web site:

The reply was a reaction to what I wrote in items # 25
and #21. Thinking that those who read my messages
might be interested in the episode described by Storms
I asked for (and received) permission to share it. His
story, and additional comments, are now in item #27 at
the above address. Happy New Year to all.
