I'd like to explain something to everyone about
R&D (research and development) A researcher
or inventor works on the basis of testing, not
predictions. Testing, only testing, tells the inventor
what ideas work and what don't. Sometimes,
the test reveals a complete surprise, an unexpected
result, like, wow! Endless testing, repeated testing
reveals the truth. Anyone who is quick to
predict the outcome of an experiment does not
understand the development process. It's not
a process of being positive or negative. It's
a process of data collecton ultimately
leading to a solution. Anyone who claims to
be able to predict the outcome of development
work is simply ignorant, and doesn't understand
the invention process. The process is time-consuming
but persistence usually pays off. Enough said.
