    GC, admittedly the stated premise behind the study sounds like what is needed. But as we have seen time and again the stated goal gets perverted down the line.

    Is it really a power you would place in the hands of a partisan government and not expect it to get abused?

    And when you have previously stated your admiration of a completely nutjob movie claiming perpetual motion works and free energy exists(Thrive), you can't expect me to just forget about that, sorry.

    Obviously that was a thread you completely misunderstood, and apparently still do. I stated my skepticism from the outset, saying they presented some factual information, and some not, and reached wrong conclusions.

    The idea was like examining a complex math problem to see where the individual had worked the steps correctly but made an error in calculations.

    We know the answer is wrong but want to find why. You were fixed on there only being a wrong answer and refused to examine the steps.

    You still seem fixated on your own misperception. Your mind was closed to such an exercise, as it somehow threatened your world view and you chose to attack the messenger without your really understanding the message.

    You are still attacking based on your own misinterpretation of what occurred in a completely different topic and don’t seem to be able to let it go.

    Stop obsessing, have a stiff drink and relax. It will all be ok.
