The data provided new support for the notion that cold fusion is real, but none of the experiments were complete or totally convincing. Researchers at Texas A&M University said they too had produced excess energy in the form of heat, though less than in the original experiment. Scientists at Georgia Tech, using a similar device, said they had detected excess neutrons, subatomic particles that are a normal by-product of fusion -- although they later announced that their experiment...

The Soviet Union is scaling back its cold war commitments overseas in favor of a more pragmatic, diplomatic -- and potentially more successful -- drive to expand its influence abroad. The Soviets are moving in more subtle ways than of old to position themselves advantageously.
