And no one knows the last word in whatever field they are applying themselves in.
I think most of us are trying to make pathways into previously uncharted territory.
Personally I do not mind if my ideas and methods are trashed - and I am surprised they haven't been directly confronted. The doubting-Thomas' are welcome to pour piss in my schemes - I'll get ideas from them! The object is to succeed and whether this is achieved with or without clashes along the way is really imaterial when success is felt.
Well I mean that I am not necessarily happy if I am proved wrong, But anything other than the truth is useless as I hope to succeed. It is up to me to rise above it and to find a way despite detractors, wise-Alecs and foul-mouthed trolls.
I don't like the idea of people refusing to discuss their ideas here because they think their plans are simply trashed and the threads disrupted. There are a lot of hard heads here and such people are par for the course.
I'm not a salesman. I mean I am not confident at flogging my ideas. If I try to 'sell' my ideas I can easily lose my audience by choosing the wrong words or bellittling someone's conflicting thoughts by not applying tact and diplomacy.
C'mon AS! We're in the business of slaughtering a few sacred cows, so the orthodox believers will naturally be ungracious.
It seems several hard-hitters here have gone on their ways and left us behind. Real solid experienced people who are/were able to mentor and guide us who are not as well set-up with whatever as others who may be in a similar boat, but belligerently insist their thoughts and their experiments represent the pinnacle of achievement.
The gov plants I do not know of or how to detect if they are skilled at clandestine trolling. Surely the proof is in the pudding in this respect and those who are shouting known lies will eventually be silenced if not through being ignored then out of earshot because they are banned for being a disruptive nuisance.
I said I do not mind if my thoughts are trashed. But anyone attacking me personally will not be received well at all. That's an entirely different matter. I hope that you, AS would ponder this.
AS, I imagine you like playing 'open miserre' I do too. But not in the field of science. It really pisses people off when you beat them even when they can see your cards.
I think we all have work to do. So you who have a better grasp of obtaining (essentially) free-energy really should try to make us who are less able to comprehend things to use the ideas for the betterment of ourselves and hopefully the rest of sentient mankind will tag along.
