Bruce. Nowhere in the article or in my post was LENR ever mentioned. Mike McCullough is not a LENR researcher. If that was not clear to you maybe you should pay more attention.
Indeed, this was not clear to me. You introduced the article by saying "I think it covers some of the same turf as scientists working on cold fusion have experienced." Also, McCulloch is an LENR researcher, as I noticed upon reading the article itself (it cites McCulloch's 2018 articel "Can Cold Fusion be Explained by Quantised Inertia" in Progress n Physics vol14 p63).
I thought I was paying pretty close attention.
Note added in edit: Sorry, I have realized that McCulloch's LENR paper was not cited directly by the target article in The Critic. Instead, I found it after googling "quantised intertia".
