FWIW, even crackpot theories need to be explored. Sometimes they lead to something. I'm about to be 70 and my first portable radio had vacuum tubes. It had two monster batteries that, if I forget to shut it off at night, would be dead in the morning. I'm sure that at that time, somewhere, some crackpot was talking about "semiconductors". I have often wondered what our energy crisis would look like if we needed tubes to run our computers. Let the nut cases run. We need them. The "scientists" know all too well what "everybody" knows to be true and do nothing. In a few years some tenured PhD at a respected university will distill out the grain of truth hidden in this, or some similar, "scam" and we'll make another leap forward.
