You, one the other hand, sure *are* a researcher, you *have* been there, you *have* seen your idea, or someone else's, simply ignored and ridiculed without ever being given any consideration. Just as I have.
Real research is so hard to do, because the inertia is simply overwhelming, at least for many years until resistance is broken (by which time, the researcher himself is broken from exhaustion and even simple old age). Real science is done on the fringes, real discovery happens just outside Science, Inc.
Oh, but don't you worry: vulture scientists *will* think the idea is pure genius---as soon as *they* can profit from it.
