Come on, boys! Freak. There were a couple remarks that weren't "kid gloved",
but he took nothing like the ribbing I have gotten when proving myself in 
the work world. If he can't take a good ribbing, then he doesn't have the
gumption to finish the project anyhow, so it doesn't matter. If he wants
to sign back in and ASK, he is welcome. I, for my part, will point him to
any info I'm aware of. What does he expect? "I have revolutionized the
submersible world! I have supplanted Newton! You like it! But I won't tell
you how it works, cause it is too far out!" ??? I certainly hope I didn't say
anything to scare him off...But in my opinion he has proven his "mettle". 
Who here hasn't had their ideas shot down at one time or another? Come on.

Should he take it to it's fruition and one day dive his submarine, only to have it take his life, could we here not be, at the very least morally, somewhat responsible for that?  Just my thoughts.

Instead of engaging someone and coaching them on the pitfalls of subdesign, there are those who have ridiculed or treated ignorance with disdain rather than education.  We cannot educate those who leave this list feeling humiliated. The behavior of some here has been such that the reputation of this list is tarnished.  I would bet that almost everyone here has had an idea they thought revolutionary only to find out it has been done or the physics won't work. I know for me it was disappointing.  The fact that a person came here and was laughed off the forum is in my opinion inexcusable.
