ALTERNATIVE THEORY OF GRAVITY...

Everybody's Uncle,

A friend of mine wishes to publish his alternative theory of Gravity but not in Science Fiction magazines. Although he has no professional degrees he has a scientific and academic background. It is a fact that there is yet no known scientific proof of what gravity really is. My friend's theory paper is not mathematically explained but scientifically and strongly believes it could prove very valid in today's scientific thinking. He is afraid that most popular science magazines won't accept his theory for publishing, as he has no academic degrees. My question is where could he possibly make his theory known?

Dear friend of Newton II,

History is replete with great breakthroughs in every field. I encourage all my nieces and nephews to explore their areas of interest. Most innovators do not achieve recognition on their first attempt. They encounter obstacles and/or harsh criticism before hitting their peak. Suggesting that the world was not flat was considered heresy back when.

Your friend should be advancing his own cause. HE must drive his theory forward - not you. Nice of you to help - but you have to serve your own ambitions.

He can make anything he wants known on the Internet. Establishing a website is relatively inexpensive. Put his theory in public view and persevere, persevere, persevere.

Everybody's Uncle
