Nice, but no one will take care of it.
Stephan Pomp replied:
QuoteThe comment by Phaeton Rudegar requires some clarification since it might seem that my colleagues and I actually support the most recent claims by Levi et al. Quite the opposite is true. We note indeed that, if true, the findings would require a complete rewriting of nuclear physics textbooks but note that other and much more likely explanations for the drastic isotopic change findings are possible. For a more detailed statement please read http://stephanpomp.blogspot.se/2014/10/the-cat-is-dead.html or our full article (and not just selected out of context lines) on NyTeknik: http://www.nyteknik.se/asikter/debatt/article3854985.ece (in Swedish)
Pomp is at the extreme of groupthink.
even if it is true that the book have to be rewritten, he simply say that because theory is challenged (if you read The explanation of LENR you know it is bullshit) it is false...
and he estimate that he need no evidence ...
it is not awful, it is classic awful as most physicist think( huizenga, parks,...) except few one, often with a lab experience. It is an education problem.
Pomp is again incorrect. No need to rewrite anything. Just add a new chapter on LENR. Same as the recently added new chapter on SuperConductivity.
