I stand by my point about the scientific establishment's conservatism, mind, it's hostility to ideas that seem to contradict the current model of the universe. My worry is that because of this conservatism perfectly good ideas are sometimes made to appear crazy by very "respectable" scientists. Often in the early days of a discovery the phenomenon in question is hard to notice and repeat - Marconi, for example, had to listen incredibly carefully to hear the first radio broadcast through the static and noise, and the Wright brothers initial flight was about as impressive as me throwing a paper aeroplane. Like I say, though, I dunno if that's the case with cold fusion - it sounds like the evidence is thin on the ground, to say the least. Let me finish by repeating myself: it may well be a red herring and surely isn't worth pinning our hopes on: praying for a technological fix is clearly not the answer.

But you never know, eh?
