      Cold Fusion Is Hot Again
      A report on cold fusion - nuclear energy like that which powers the sun, but made at room temperatures on a tabletop, which in 1989, was presented as a revolutionary new source of energy that promised to be cheap, limitless and clean but was quickly dismissed as junk science. Today, scientists believe that cold fusion, now most often called low temperature fusion or a nuclear effect, could lead to monumental breakthroughs in energy production. 
    • "60 Minutes on CNBC" to Feature Cold Fusion - There's an announcement on the CNBC web site of an upcoming program that will feature cold fusion.
