Among Gina's most recent offerings was this link to a Wired article about the
current state of cold fusion research:
http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/6.11/coldfusion.html
I recommend it. It's a very well written piece of "science anthropological
journalism" about the history and current state of the cold fusion research
community. I'm not competent to judge the technical merits of anything
that's described in the article, but WOULD be curious to see the reactions of
folks better able to assess the current state of the art described there.
One thing that was a little disturbing about the article was the account of
how the scientific and R&D community seems set against even a moderately
funded investigation of what is an undeniably interesting and mysterious
physical phenomenon. What's described in the Wired article seems well worth
looking into.
