The late Eugene Mallove was in the middle of it, being employed at MIT in the news office \u2014 before resigning in protest of the institution\u2019s misconduct. In a featured article for Infinite Energy Magazine, Mallove detailed exactly what took place that led to his resignation, and the depth of hatred that many professors at MIT had for Pons and Fleischmann\u2019s work. The article titled, \u201cMIT and Cold Fusion: A Special Report\u201d also looks at how the replication performed by the institution\u2019s Plasma Fusion Center actually did produce positive results, how data from the experiment was altered by unknown individuals at least twice, and how the hot fusion scientists in charge of such tests were far too biased to conduct proper research.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/cryptogon.com\/?p=26708\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/cryptogon.com\/?p=26708<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am very interested in the events that took place immediately after the birth of Cold Fusion in 1989, when Pons and Fleischmann announced the existence of their technology to the world.
