I'm not going to comment on most of this, but I will say something about this bit:

Ideas, whether good or bad, usually take a very long time to attract much attention. Other people have their own preoccupations and will not normally pay much attention to anything you do. If you're looking for external validation then you will need a lot of patience. For better or worse, that's the way the world works. > Anyway, no clue who made it to the end of this wall of text, but > thanks if you did.
