Actually, one of the major experiments 'debunking' cold fusion in the beginning (the MIT study) turned out to have used improperly manipulated data and was a false negative.
In the aftermath of the media storm surrounding cold fusion, merely mentioning an interest in the theory (unless you specifically stated you wanted to debunk it) was grounds for dismissal at many scientific institutions.
Cold Fusion (in the sense that a nuclear reaction happens at approximate room temperature by chemical processes) is happening. thousands of papers have been published proving the effect. No, they haven't been published in any respected 'peer-reviewed' papers, because any mention of CF is immediately declared impossible and bad-science.
