Abstract

Hal Fox was the director of the first research laboratory at the University of Utah Research Park  He claims that Pons & Fleischmann are responsible for him not becoming famous -- Because he had just retired and was going to take up tap dancing when Pons & Fleischmann announced the discovery of cold fusion. Hal is also a co-founder (with several U.S. cold fusion scientists) of Future Energy Applied Technology, Inc., a Utah corporation dedicated to the commercialization of cold fusion.

Hal Fox is a leading founder of the Fusion Information Center which publishes both Fusion Facts, a monthly technical newsletter designed to keep subscribers informed of the latest developments in cold fusion research, and Fusion Briefings, a monthly newsletter that is a businessman\'s look at current energy research and its application in the business and financial world. Hal is also the author of COLD FUSION CONCEPTS, a computer-aided instructional program teaching over 40 concepts needed to understand cold fusion.

In 1993 Fox founded both the technical Journal of New Energy and New Energy News, intended for the interested layman. He edited both journals until they were discontinued in 2001.

Obituary

Harold Lavar Fox, \"Hal\", beloved husband, father, grandfather and friend, was born August 24, 1923, in Vineyard, Utah, to George James Fox and Jennie Holdaway. He died August 20, 2012.
