no sweat --and yes, this linking of "money" with research is somewhat
bogus, enormous amounts of investment are very often needed (and even
more annoyingly for some money that can come from cranks like venter)
imho

Yes. I was more impressed by his 26-hour clock and 4.669 than his
proper name and muddled it. Just audited a 24-lecture course on chaos
taught by Professor Steven Strogatz.
As for Judy’s objections, yes, CERN is expensive as well as countless
other projects. My point was that the search for Higgs Boson, for
example, is an attempt to validate the prediction of a theory of
cosmological symmetry stemming from Noether’s First Theorem, General
Relativity, and the Friedmann equations, and derived from clever
nuancing of conservation principles (lepton number for example) in
nucleogenesis models. In short, to *prove* the big stuff one needs
money; to develop the ideas behind big stuff one may only need a
chalkboard.
