Well, I guess it's that season again. The charlatan who claims to have invented a cold fusion device - the same device whose flaws were exposed here two years ago - has just held an "independent test" of his device, and there's now a physics paper out claiming that this device works, and must be powered by some type of nuclear reaction! Look, let's ... (more)
