- Eugene Mallove (2004): A cold fusion advocate beaten to death. Officially a robbery/murder tied to a tenant dispute over evicted renters trashing his property. Multiple perpetrators were convicted (manslaughter and murder charges) - Stanley Meyer (1998): Claimed a "water-powered car." Died suddenly after dinner, saying "They poisoned me." Autopsy ruled cerebral aneurysm due to high blood pressure; toxicology found no poison. His device was deemed fraudulent by courts - Rory Johnson (late 1970s): Alleged cold fusion magnetic motor inventor. Reportedly died after moving labs under DOE pressure. No verified details on cause of death; claims of suppression (gag orders) are anecdotal and unconfirmed. - Arie M. deGeus (2007): Patented zero-point energy ideas. Found unresponsive in airport parking; autopsy suggested heart failure (natural causes). Conspiracy sites speculate assassination before funding meetings, but no homicide evidence.
I noticed a post from Elon Musk just This Week about how dumb it was to try and make fusion here on earth, something about how the sun is the biggest fusion generator ever, then rambles on about going to Mars. I do not see the point and think Mars is more warning rather than a way forward.
