Time to face facts

Now that all of the major world science organizations have admitted that global warming is worse than we have imagined, everybody must take action. The world science organizations have said that the worst scenario is the best that we can hope for and that we are past the tipping point.

We must turn to new forms of energy, including geothermal and cold fusion. Yes, cold fusion. It is not a myth, there is too much data that supports that it is real. If you can not grasp the concept, that is your problem. Get out of the way and allow the scientist to develop this technology.

What amazes me is that so many believe in wormholes, curved space time, and time travel without a shred of evidence, but will not accept cold fusion with mountains of data to support it.

Astrophysics, Fact or fantasy?

Recent work in astrophysics has become stranger to read than the most fanciful science fiction.  Everything from string theory, m-branes, p-branes (or pea-brains), dark energy, dark matter, alternate universes have no basis in fact, no experiments to prove or disprove, and most importantly does not improve the quality of life except for physicists  getting tax-dollar funding.  These theories are simple mathematical tricks to support certain astrophysical theories that are not holding up to scrutiny with new data captured by our newest telescopes, stars moving at greater than light speed, the size of the universe is lager than can be explained by its age.  

If these physicists are so clever, let them look at the world around us and fix the problems that plague our earth (energy and the green-house effect among others). Cut the funding for these charlatans.

High Temperature Fusion

Since 1952, the U.S has spent 1 billion dollars a year for hot fusion (56 Billion dollars.  In todays dollars, that would be between 150-200 billion dollars. What do we have to show for it? Hot fusion will most probably never work.  It is a engineering nightmare.  If that money was diverted to alternative energy programs, we would see a drastic improvement in our environment and a significant decrease in our dependence on foreign oil.
