There are, of course (correspondingly), "idiotic" Questions. And ridiculous speculations by-analogy (and by-analogy is always suspect). (An example of "Answers" by foundation-less and link-less analogy is " 'quantum' explanations" to several psychological things; it is a bad joke any such person could have a graduate degree !) Sorry: my perception of common things here on RG. And, after years of nonsense, I have decided to state my observation.
It is likely very nearly pointless that I am here on RG (and there have been only so many years I have been able to try to fool myself).
Hi Brad,
Sorry to hear you not being satisfied. Yet I feel the same here.
I am 76 years old. Only occasionally by accident received right or near enough satisfactory answer to my question.
Do you think each of us can ask ourselves a question and find the right answer.
In research I found rapid changes on our senses.
Could it be the case?
Regards,
Mehri
Hi Brad,
Could you define IDIOTIC and Who do you personally call "IDIOT"?

Dear Mehri Takhvar
" Do you think each of us can ask ourselves a question and find the right answer. " Yes, fortunately (OR unfortunately), answering one's own questions seems to be what very regularly happens.
About "idiot": I should have used the descriptor "idiotic" (thus, using an adjective and not a label). But, in any case, this is a rough, overall (and often w/r to certain sorts of Questions: nearly general) qualitative opinion about how I feel about the work or thought that has gone into Answers -- so the thing is not so much inability [(though some bad habits and bad (non-individual) learning clearly seems to be involved) * ], but certainly also (at least at times) lack of work or trying. I will not identify people by name on this, but will say that most regular respondents to my post ARE NOT included in that group. (I can get a couple (not many, at the extreme) to come to mind.)
I will go on to say that I have never, but most slightly, been pleasantly surprised by response posts and this communicates to me that, here on RG, I am basically "losing". More importantly: my views and approach(es) (possibly large contributions) are "losing".
* Footnote: Thus, there is a lack of work-at-the-time AND longer-term work AS AN INDIVIDUAL in study over time apparent with "folks" here: these both are often found lacking (and with people with the highest graduate degrees; this says something about our Society and academia).
P.S. Dear Mehri Takhvar
Unfortunately, as is not uncommon, my editing (esp. adding-to) Answers goes on even beyond the time the person I am mainly responding to her/him- self responds to the "unfinished" post. This may have occurred with my most recent Answer and your response. (But, it's just more details: unlikely to affect you overall feeling about my Answer.)
