There are many other possible and more common stages e.g. 1) Accepted , simply because it is seen to to work . 1)Ignored , because it has nothing to offer . 1)Ridiculed because it is ridiculous . and various combinations of the above . It's a convenient smokescreen for proponents of dubious ideas to hide behind "look what they said about ....(insert revolutionary ) " as if they might be in the same class or " there is more to heaven and earth ...etc " . ...and not forgetting the ever-popular: 1) Ridiculed as being the result of an over-active imagination (by those who are envious because they have too little) ...but, I suppose it at least gives them a focus to vent their frustrations ;) Reply | with quote |  5th May 2011ce 19:47 In reply to: Re: Who's going to be there this weekend?
