beaten you to all the FAI fundamentals. Sorry pal ;)

Well, you do realize of course that many people
believe you are mad too? Aren't you the one that
keeps saying you've got all the answers and shifting
your views every couple of years? Claiming that you
can get answers through pure thought, without
experimentation? Claiming that you're saving the
world?
There's a fine line between genius and madness.

because thinking on the whole leads to wrong
conclusions, unless you think very, very hard"
