- I refuse to be forced off a thread by someone who utterly refuses to
- substantiate a theory which he claims to be deserving of a Nobel Prize.
-
- The largest part of this thread is taken up by people saying "How does
- your theory explain this?" -- then your answer, then many posts criticizing
- your answer, etc. However, you never back up your answers with more than A1.
- But you cannot prove A1 by quoting it. And if you deserve a Nobel Prize,
- you should be able to satisfactorily prove it.
-
- I would like to address another short issue. I find it offensive that you
- claim to know the feelings of other people and their motivations for
- posting. Calling someone jealous for not coming up with your idea first
- smacks of narcissism. Perhaps they actually don't believe that your theory
- is correct. Or perhaps they (like me for instance) don't believe that this
- belongs in physics, but in metaphysics at best. You see, you are trying to
- explain the great why, whereas physics tries do describe the great how.
