Hi All,
What is science? What is research?
How many ways did Edison find not to make a light bulb? He was able to discover 2001 different ways not to make a light bulb. If he had followed current logic we would still be using torches. There was no written evidence in history to support the idea that a light bulb would even work was there? Ergo, No evidence, no light bulb! I do believe he had his detractors just as Columbus had the Flat Earth Society to deal with during his conquest. Many an empire is built on nothing more than an idea with no basis in fact at the time of conception. Edison had nothing more than an idea and successfully directed his research to validate that idea. Was this bad science?
Columbus had an idea the world was round! His post idea research proved him correct.
I do believe that Columbus and Edison's views were alternatives to the mainstream beliefs of the times.
While I applaud your impressive knowledge of Ancient Egypt I am disappointed in the fact that so much condescension for alternative views prevails in the very people who could really make the difference in research efforts.
Regards,
Jacob
