Hydrino Theory, Which Overturns Quantum Theory, Is In Turn Overturned By Doofusino Theory

by Scott Aaronson

This piece is meant to make fun of hydrino theory, and possibly "cold fusion".  Look, if there is anything that is going to shut this up, it will have to be some type of unambiguous test which cannot be denied.  Otherwise, it will be too easy to ridicule anything that is contrary to conventional wisdom.  Sadly, it is only through the new ideas that progress gets made.  If people are too scared to step out of the box, progress will stall.  Isn't that the thing that is happening nowadays?
