This video is long but highly entertaining. Hat tip to kevynjacobs. I thought the falsehood of the "lone genius" concept was the most significant point - just taking that into account takes care of 90% of the cranks. I'm not sure that any significant progress in science has EVER come about without the engagement of a larger community

Interesting!
I never really thought of the 'second' to be a Human Invention.

Still, my theory of Suction is constant along side with MY theory of True Buoyancy and both can be measured using the theory E "does not" =MC sq!

I prove this theory every night in my garbage disposal DAMN IT!!!!!! G = 0.1111111111111.....2

And yeah, they are ALWAYS engineers.

I wish I could say I LOLled at this, but it was more like a wry grimace of recognition.
