@Ash, I contacted the guy a few days ago when he first posted on the Hydroxy group and suggested he work with you and Panacea... Or at least publish everything on here or the O-U site and let people replicate it. He replied the next day that he would rather get "as close" to Open Source as he can without actually going that way. So he appears willing to collaborate to some degree. I pointed out that he can:

1) Get "free R&D" from the replicators who could possible improve on the design, and can also...

2) Help provide proof for his claims with working replications, maybe even with meaningful independent testing. While...

3) Still protecting his rights, and

4) Providing him the "security of numbers".

...It would seem to be a "no brainer" imo

And i wished him well, and hoped that if he went it alone he would be the FIRST out of hundreds to succeed into the mainstream that way (...stealing your thunder there on those points, m8... Sry, i hope you don't mind hehehe)... And darn good point they are!!

Am i becoming a loudmouth busybody? Certainly, lol. But i learned in my political activism "career" that this is the way to get things done in terms of affecting opinion... Maybe not the "best" way but one that is highly effective (...if not also highly irritating sometimes, hehehe). Call it "constructive egomania" if you like
