respectfully differ... It's not the "internet" that is
playing havoc, it is HUMAN BEINGS. The internet didn't sent information to
this list, a person did. On the other hand, maybe I'm wrong. Do you
have an e-mail address for The Internet so I can send he/she/it an e-mail and None of this krap means a thing. This kind of thing gets my goat. It not
who did what when. It has to do with the publisher and researcher. I’d be
totally pissed off if someone broke my research on the net (or any medium)
before it was going to be published if I didn’t want it to be leaked out. The NET
turns science into gossip. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve read on the
list speculation after speculation about an animal before it was published. We/the
net/ needs to respect the publisher and researcher and WAIT until it is
published. The key word is WAIT!!! Sometimes its timing, sometimes it’s the publisher
or the researcher. Right now I’m waiting to publish on a theory related to some
research that has been hinted about for years. I sent the researchers who were
doing their research what I had thought about and had a draft about. They told
me that it wasn’t in my best interest to publish anything until they had done
their research and published on it. I respect that and I wait till they finish
what they are working on. Again, the key word is WAIT!!! Sometimes it’s a short period of time,
others a very very long period. Tracy L. Ford P. O. Box 1171 Poway Ca 92074 |
