eon wrote that cold fusion “. . . was caused by purely electrical and chemical means. Pons & Co. apparently weren’t familiar enough with electrolytic reactions to recognize one when they created it by accident.”

Fleischmann and Pons are among the world’s leading experts in electrochemistry, so this is unlikely. They were subsequently replicated by hundreds of other electrochemists and experts in nuclear physics, so it is impossible. And since many cold fusion experiments do not employ electrochemistry, it is irrelevant.

Eon and others who wish to comment on this would be well advised to first review the scientific literature on the subject, especially mainstream, peer-reviewed literature.
