John, about being a"nut" when you think out of the box people havent
got a book to study up on you So many people in the past were labelled "nuts" long after they had passed away. George Green a mathematicician from Nottingham was not in with the no alls and yet nowadays his work is still in use in engineering but others have polished up some of what he found and laid claim to it. Very few people now a days knows of this George Green. Then there was that guy more than two thousand years ago who found a round stone that was flat on both sides and the guy wheeled that thing around while his friends called him "nuts" One day he tried rolling the thing uphill until a dinasaw came along and ofcourse he ran like hell but the stone cought up with him and killed him. So the guy who invented the wheel and was called a "nut" passed away And the name of the man that invented the wheel remains a mystery for ever, even tho his nuts were preserved to be used a few centuries later to make a vehicle by Henry Ford. There is no glory to be obtained by thinking outside the box! John Smith wrote: wrote: Art, You'd get a lot more people who would be able to listen to what you're saying if you drew a picture and posted it somewhere. Dan Dan: I think we have arrived at the quantum/nano level here, you know, entangled particles, particles which can be in two places at once, particles which exceed the speed of light, it is a no mans land. Indeed, it takes guts to just attempt a discussion on the subject ... We tend to think at large levels, wavelengths traversing long stretches of conductors, whole capacitor plates, etc. Naturally, even if one is stating correct facts on a quantum level he is going to called an idiot--if he attempts to even advance a theory which encompasses the above, who can resist laughing? None-the-less, it is true, the world of physics becomes upside down (apparently, with our present understanding.) Who can tell a "nut" at this level, everyone is going to look the same here. grin Regards, JS |

I am not afraid to be termed a "nut", if there is some sort of evidence there is something which needs to be looked at, discussed, thought about--I'll be right there up to my arm pits. The nay sayers, those who claim everything has already been discovered, those who claim we already have all the answers and all is understood--they stand as chaff in the wind to me. Many you deal with here are technicians. They are well versed in standard formulas, techniques and methods. I hear them saying, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!" To a certain extent, they are quite correct. Thinking is just a hobby with me, as is amateur radio and electronics. I work in software for a living, thinking out of the box is a not a luxury here, it is a requirement. Unless there is good reason you do something unique/different/quicker/shorter/more efficient/more compact/etc. they will hand your job to china or india! Take all I say with a grain of salt ...

You obviously do what I and my son do. He works as a consultant at
Southern Cal and he was the one that got Biology work bench off the ground where others could not bring it together when he was at Illinois U. Now he really thinks outside the box. On the otherhand my sisters boy who is a director on the Rupert Murdock set up is about strictly following a particular line Go figure John Smith wrote: art wrote: John, about being a"nut" when you think out of the box people havent Art: Lighten up.
