I believe however that at some point some physicist with such credentials will stumble upon these ideas as I stumbled upon them.

A small note about the simple way I will be trying to work things out here. Right now there are a lot of very smart and highly trained people who use the abstract mathematics approach in physics to good effect. Personally I do not have much faith in the ability of this approach to give physically meaningful solutions for the reasons I have outlined above. Here I will try to explore things in simpler ways to see what can come out of it.

Also, as is evident from the Project Outline (see Main Page), I will be following paths that are quite different from the prevalent avenues of research. I suspect that these paths will prove quite fruitful, but this also remains to be seen in the proof of the pudding.

A final note. I do not have any illusions as to the interest these theories may generate or the acceptance they may have. I am outside the scientific community, and this means that it will be almost impossible to be heard. On the other hand, I do not like the option of not even trying. If these theories prove wrong, I will be the first to admit it. If they prove right, at least they will be publicly available for anyone who may want to have a look. Since they are way outside the mainstream, only someone with very high credentials (which I lack) could make the scientific community notice them. I believe however that at some point some physicist with such credentials will stumble upon these ideas as I stumbled upon them.
