Well, if I may.  What you've just described is what happend to make 
Linux or FreeBSD.

You will see thousands of flying apparatuses with appearently no thrust
keeping them in the air and a bunch of fuck-headed EE's saying it will
never work.

There has been no-one who has given their explaination of what they
believe makes them fly.  Only people who have said they can't.

They same people who say Linux doesn't work say these can't fly.
