I'm in a similar boat. It is possible that we are missing something. Yes, it could be cold fusion all over again; but at the very least, it's on track to be tested thoroughly enough to be proved or disproved.

As long as we are talking about fundamentally updating physics, it'd be hilarious if we determine it works, but don't know how, then take it up in space, only to find that this weird effect is dependent upon the local gravitational field.
