Working to get something done instead of "simply sit[ting] in front of a keyboard, with no life to speak of" is EXACTLY what I am doing with my efforts to get the Sergent coupler brought into reality. If you folks had even half a clue how many man hours I have put into this it would shock you. And for what? To benefit myself? Well, yes, to benefit myself, but not JUST myself... rather, the scale as a whole. So at least I am not just sitting behind my keyboard (like the vast majority of my critics)... I am getting something done... sooner or later... one way or another.
What claim to fame have my critics aside from the two cents worth of criticism they voiced about what I'm working on simply because it is something they have no interest in? But that's ok... I'm gonna keep on going. Maybe the next project I get involved in will interest them, and they can get behind me... instead of standing in front of me.
