Q: Why is this site named "Fire and Ice?"
A: It is based on a quotation from Samuel Rutherford, "Never seek warm fire under cold ice." He meant that the world can never satisfy the longings of the Christian heart.

Mr Mallove does not always fully declare his interests in technologies. He tends to promote people based upon his personal relations with them, as much as because of the inherent practicality of their science.

Breaking Through! Cold Fusion Goes Commercial...We knew all along it
would happen...."cold fusion" would begin to be commercialized long
before science fully came to grips with what the mysterious and extremely
potent excess heat-generating process really is. ........Remarkably, cold
fusion is being commercialized even in the face of continued widespread, but
obviously misguided skepticism that the phenomenon even exists! As former Los
Alamos National Laboratory scientist Dr. Edmund Storms, now with Salt Lake
City-based ENECO, has suggested, "We can thank the skeptics for allowing
some of us the chance to become very rich." Clearly, if the U.S.
Department of Energy evaluation of cold fusion in 1989 had been even 10%
objective, and if threatened institutions had been open to the new discovery,
in 1995 there would be precious little room in the field for small companies
and entrepreneurs. '
'Could Cold Fusion Be For Real?
An Interview with Dr. Eugene Mallove
- Part 2
By Bill Moore 17 March 2000 -- "A patent will never validate
anything," Dr. Eugene Mallove, the editor in
chief of Infinite Energy magazine state. "A patent is just a right
to sue somebody. Pons and Fleischman's patent was rejected, in my view, due to
very unethical treatment... it's done, it's finished, it's regretful, however,
companies such as Clean Energy Technologies, which is having its own financial
problems, got about 15 patents on a cold fusion-like process on the Patterson
Power Cell." Mallove also observed that Blacklight Power, the
'Dr. Mallove seems to be slowly succeeding in his mission of exposing the truth. Last year, The Saint, a rather big-budget and successful film, had a story line that centered around the discovery of cold fusion. (Dr. Mallove, of course, was a consultant for the film.) Slowly but surely, more and more people are aware that there is more to cold fusion than has been reported, and many mainstream magazines (not to mention certain fringe underground publications) have chimed in at a slow trickle.'
Mr Mallove has talked of the film thus:
'The fictional portrayal of the struggle for cold fusion in the current movie The Saint, is a symbolic indication of the very real scientific and economic struggle for the victory of this technology over the corrupt fossil fuel, fission, and hot fusion industries. If ever there were a cause more demanding of your serious investigation and attention, this is it!'
Mr Mallove has been promising fusion 'real soon now' for 15 years with no shipping product to show. There may be something at work, however most people are getting rather bored. His arguments are contradictory. On the one hand he says it is suppressed, on the other hand he is always claiming long lists of 'replications.' So which is it? Suppressed or validated? The answer seems to depend on what point he wants to make, on that particular day. In the end, Mr Mallove seems to be on some kind of personal pseudo religious quest, which is fine, so long as everyone else keeps this in mind, and takes everything he says and does with a large pinch of salt.

anonymous screed about Mallove -----------------
I personally believe he had good intentions but was
often misguided and err’d on the side of presuming
questionable claims to have likely merit.
I was sad when he died and had gotten on the wrong side of him and found
him to be very intolerant and closed minded about being questioned. Others who knew him better had not found this
to be the case. – Eric Krieg
