Re: The Aerodynamic Lift Booklet of IntegEner-W (3.00 / 0) (#7)

You have a "booklet"! Why didn't you say from the start! I am much more likely to accept your theories if you have a "booklet". I have many interesting theories myself but unfortunately none have yet made it to "booklet" form.
If your goal is to enlighten us (the public) as you state, why on earth is the information in the "booklet" not freely available for direct view/download on your web site? It seems an odd way of doing things. Even more odd is the fact that you have charged for this information in the past. You are trying to gain acceptance for your ideas and charging folk for the privilege. You are pushing the idea of advanced aerodynamics yet your demonstration projects are whirligig lawn ornaments? You are selling blades for wind turbines and have no (or will not publish) power figures?
It is easy to see why you’re encountering some resistance here. Perhaps you would have been better off preaching to folk who are somewhat less informed as those here on the board.

You raise a fundamental question here?  why is he so bull-headed about his 'theory'?  People can become emotionally attached to their ideas and blind about the shortcomings.  There is also the issue of the investment of time and money.  If you admit you are wrong without something to replace it, the money stops coming in.  This is something that has been seen time and again over the years even for supposedly mainstream researchers as their economic welfare and reputations became dependent on erroneous points of view.

I feel that Anthony's unwillingness to address criticisms is disrespectful of the very community he is trying to reach.  I don't believe it will prove productive for him in the long run.  

I find your comment about accepting his theories because he has a 'booklet' intriguing.  I didn't realize putting something in writing had such a pull.  Perhaps I should do the same.  My philosophy was to justify my approach by building the system, but perhaps it's not necessary.  Maybe it's better to give up the possibility of patents of dubious value by widely disseminating the information at reasonable cost.  It's something to think about.
