You've had one heck of a career, working on all those great projects.
I'm not quite as old as you, but I worked for Texas Instruments, McDonnell Douglas, and others. I worked with laser pointing devices, infra-red imaging detectors, designed one of the first computer networks, and built my own telescopes. Congratulations on all your achievements.
As you have discovered, the folks here at Hypography don't really know how to take you, or how to understand your dot-waves. But I think I do. You started with conversion tables, right? A guy could go blind reading all the conversion tables out there in engineering books. And you had a lot of time on your hands.
So, you probably discovered one day that if you worked the MCS and the MRS units right, making sure that some units canceled out and other didn't, then you came up with some astonishing results. And your dot-wave theory was born.
That's a pretty good hobby for a 70-year old man. It keeps you occupied and it certainly is a worthwhile use of your time. Not a waste of time, like playing video games or reading romance novels. You're not the kind of guy who would spend his last years wasting his time. I can tell that about you. You've got determination. I admire that.
Now, as to whether or not your theory is correct, these other folks seem to think that's the most important thing. Where's your proof! But you and I know that's not the most important thing. What's important is your determination and your commitment to discovering something about the universe and sharing it with humanity.
I'd say you've done a pretty good job at that. You know, I used to work in graduate school reading the scientific papers sent in by folks just like you, folks who had a new theory about math or science. I had to figure out if the authors knew what they were talking about. Reading your theory took me back to those good old days, so, thanks a lot.
It wasn't easy figuring out whose theory made sense and whose didn't. It's still not easy. But you're doing what you love, and it's making a difference in your life, right? Life would be pretty damn boring if you didn't have this wonderful hobby. I applaud your creativity.
I guess you know by now that these other rapscallions don't think much of your theory, but maybe they're looking at it from the wrong perspective. Maybe they'll come around some day. But you've done a good job stating your case. I guess all there is to do now is just wait for the right reader to come along. Best wishes to you, jerrygg38. Best of wishes for your theory. It will always be right here at Hypography for all the newcomers to read, if they want to. Someday, somebody will understand it. You take care of yourself.

Thanks for the wonderful comments. I just finished rewritting the manuscript.
I used to be able to come up with the $6000 and have 1000 copies printed by McNaugton &Gunn. I sold some but gave most away to libraries. Right now I will only be sending out the manuscripts in a clear cover report folder. It is free for the asking. Some people want to pay for the postage and printing costs. It costs me $2.50 postage and about $6.00 for folder and paper and ink. (Non-profit). Payment later if they like the work. Anyone who wants an autographed copy can email me at
jerrygg38@nc.rr.com.
Right now I am looking for a job so I can buy the 1000 copies. I also work as a small handyman business. Mostly older customers who cannot pay much.
In Virginia Breach I had a good worker John who had some handicaps but was a good worker. When I left I gave the customers to him along with a good supply of tools. I enjoy helping people out.
I miss the good old days at Sperry when the jobs were fun. Things went downhill arout 1991 and then they downsized in 1993. Out in the street for me and 250 other older engineers.
Anyway thaks for the comments.
