Mats Lewan found an article on cold fusion in a great Norwegian newspaper.
It is a balanced article, starting from F&P experiments, the reason to doubt, but also talking od Robert Duncan conversion, of Elforsk test of E-cat...

Norway’s largest daily newspaper Aftenposten report on cold fusion

But when can I buy my e-cat? Long time waiting, nothing happens.
Even the biggest Norske newspaper can't avoid this delusion. Somewhat amazing, but not completely.

Great news. For good reasons Norwegian media seems to be on their toes looking at LENR from a fact standpoint (as opposed to conspiracy theory nonsense presented as physics theory by random academics and their media sheep). Press here for story. And here for the previous one. -
A site named "Architecture and Environmental Engineering" report that article in that post :

I am even unable to assess the veracity of this, but in recent years, more and more scientists have begun to believe in LENR (Low Energy Nuclear Reaction). Indications that it may be possible to get so-called cold fusion to work, is so convincing that Defence Research now suggests that the Research Council should examine the field closer and set aside money for a pilot project to monitor the development. The merger also leads to far minor problems with waste than existing nuclear power plants, which are based on fission (division of atoms). Therefore attention tremendous when two leading researchers in 1989 announced the results of an experiment which they called cold fusion. Just using simple remedies from their own laboratory, claimed Stanley Fleischmann (one of the world's leading electrical chemists at the time) and Martin Pons to have found a way to produce heat using infinitesimal fuel.
After only a few weeks of frantic but fruitless efforts to repeat the experiment, declared the American physicist Congress that cold fusion may be impossible. Stanley Fleischmann and Pons Martin was deprived of all honor and got their careers destroyed. The last few years have seen a significant revitalization of the area, which slowly is beginning to get into the scientific heat again. Since 1989, it published over 100 scientific articles on LENR. The American journalist dig program 60 Minutes asked in 2009 the American physicist Association in which the skeptics are many, to appoint an independent expert to look at LENR research. They even pointed at the renowned physicist Robert Duncan , who before the program was highly critical. Unlike many other critics had Duncan thus the opportunity and time to settle into the fabric. Afterwards tone of Duncan quite another:

He admitted also that the cause of the effect is still not known. In November last year collected the Norwegian engineering association Tekna and Norwegian Academy of Technological Sciences 50-60 Norwegian researchers and professionals to a seminar on the new LENR discoveries. There, one of the leading researchers, Michael McKubre from research foundation SRI, a post where he arrived with a scientific explanation as to why it was impossible for all those who tried to repeat Fleischmann and Pons' attempt in 1989 to make it. The researchers did not realize how important it was to prepare the materials in advance so Fleischmann and Pons did, he pointed out. McKubre pointed out that the tests today can be reproduced consistently, although the size of the dividend is quite variable. The "inverted" skeptic Robert Duncan pointed out that the entire field of physics, the past decades have strayed because theories have become too strong. - If you measure something which also allows them to repeat, but that does not match the theories, so is the attitude that there must be something wrong with the measurements. But that's not the scientific method. All human progress has depended on our ability to actually let us surprise and thus take the development in new directions, says Duncan.

> The reason that he does not want to be named, is that it is considered very dangerous for his career
So he's not a real scientist. He's a politician.

The newspaper rejects or censors replies. Even Rothwell couldn't post. I couldn't. Maybe posts have to be in Norwegian. They don't say, they simply delete.
