The committee's final report yields "it is not possible at this time to state categorically that all claims for cold fusion have been convincingly either approved or disproved." Although U. officials visited Washington, D.C., in April to lobby Congress for $25 million to help fund the project, the National Cold Fusion Institute seems resigned to progress forward with its current state funding and "eventual" corporate participation.
