There is a problem with scientists today. They think that they are such "Gods" that no worthwhile ideas can come from outside the incestious company they keep within their discipline.
This is such a common complaint. "they don't like it because it challenges them". "They don't like it because it was "not invented here"".
Guess what--people read journals and go to conferences to get new ideas. A single good paper can make a conference memorable. Whole teams of scientists are just waiting to jump on a new area and do the incremental studies that push it forward until the next breakthrough.

So J. Arthur God; according to you I have the hallmarks of a crank. According to me scientists like you are harming science.
Both sides can be argued and defended.

I have more results backing up my claims but has been advised by my patent lawyers to keep it under wraps for a while longer.
I look forward to hearing these results. I do not look forward to reading about vague promises of results. Somehow, I fear I will experience the latter.
