"Put all this together and I think you can see why we have such a
problem today especially with the rise of antiscience "New Age", over
unity, Aether revivalist, and UFO crap.

	Very well stated but bet it draws some flack anyway.  I think your
comment

"5. To Tesla, conceptualizing and accomplishing were interchangeable.
He claimed he had a technique of visualizing something in such detail
that when constructed, it would work exactly as planned."

Explains a lot.  I have known people like that who really couldn't draw
the distinction between grand plans in their head and something they had
actually accomplished.

	A defense of Lindsay.  He publishes ANYTHING he thinks will sell but
never makes any claims as to authenticity and in fact has amusing
comments about some of his far-out stuff.  Some of the other outfits
mentioned sell it without comment even though it's hard to think they
believe the stuff.  Of course, journalism being what it is, maybe they
do.
