Dubious material

edit

I have removed this-

Lewis also researched cold fusion in the 1980s. When Stanley Pons and Martin Fleischmann announced their discovery of controlled cold fusion at a press conference, Lewis was unable to reproduce the results. Neither were any of the countless scientists scrambling to verify the discovery. Subsequently, at the meeting of the American Physical Society to deal with the matter, Lewis and Caltech physicist Steven E. Koonin questioned the validity of the results. Lewis explained the shortcomings in the experimental procedure of Pons and Fleischmann, debunking the idea of cold fusion. His address was followed by a standing ovation by over two thousand physicists. He later remarked "I felt like Kareem or something."

from the article. This appears to be a target for vandalism, and so I am not comfortable leaving that there without a source. J Milburn (talk) 19:09, 26 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
