Re: cold fusion



yes and yes. He was working on muon catalyzed fusion at about the
same time as P&F were doing their work. Just who had started what
when and what influence there was back and forth is a bit murky



Steve did not know about P&F until he was asked to referee a grant proposal
by P&F (to whom I don't recall) Upon receipt there was a very loud oops
from the Science Center at BYU and long discussions with BYU
lawyers. Steve was working on a paper at the time. He/somebody
communicated with P&F and they all (including lawyers) agreed to submit
papers simultaneously by FedEx -- but P&F submitted a day early and held a
news conference - this to establish chronological priority.

P&F were at the UofUtah. They wear bright red sports uniforms there! BYU
uniforms are a righteous blue -- except the new football uniforms are a bit
tacky.
