..."chemical reaction / fusion of deuterium and gallium."??? Which is it?
Chemical reactions are not nuclear events. If you can't tell which you
are seeing, you don't know what you are looking at.

People have been talking up "cold fusion" for *decades.* So far, no body
has been able to show that it actually exists. For a good, rational
examination, read Park's "Voodoo Science." An "unusual phenomenon" may
not be bunk, but it isn't cold fusion, either.

'Deja-Poo'... The feeling that I've heard this shit before.

About a gazillion times? Don't you think they'd have something more
convincing that hand waving by now?

Competent scientists have been talking up cold fusion for decades
because it is a real phenomena.

It is bizarre, difficult to replicate
and not well understood. Because of these factors incompetent
"scientists" and pathological skeptics have been ridiculing it instead
of researching or even reading about it. You can't see something if you
don't look at it.

Though I am not a nuclear physicist, my understanding of cold fusion is
that it would require hydrogen nuclei to behave in a way that they have
never been known to behave. We know an awful lot about the way that
hydrogen nuclei behave, and to propose that they can do something entirely
new is a bit of a stretch.

Okay.
Tell me then where the operating system is situated.

Tell me where the economically viable hot fusion reactor is.

There are a lot of experiments but nothing beyond the experimental
state.

Same as hot fusion for a lot longer, you think its bunk too?

It's been about 20 years since this idea was first shot down

Yes 20 years of the raving stupidity of pathological skepticism.

sarcasm
Let's not be too harsh, here. Just because an idea promises to completely
revolutionize our energy infra-structure, and would have massive
implications not only for financial gain but also in our understanding of
nuclear physics, there's no reason to expect there to be any measurable
progress towards having a working system within 20 years!
/sarcasm

The same can be said of hot fusion. Obscene amounts of money have been
funneled into the hot fusion black hole for far more than 20 years yet
this technology does not attract raving hordes of pathological skeptics
that cold fusion does. Why the double standard?
