Keith, You sound very cynical. The scientific climate may be chilly in the US, but in Canada you will get frost bite in 30 seconds if you mention the subject! ;-) I noticed that only two people from Canada attended the last CF conference, and I don't think they were scientists or engineers.

Ant-inertia and the humming bird.

Perhaps the humming (flapping) of the humming bird continuously modifies the law of inertia for the wings so it would require less effort for the bird to flap its wings. After that, conventional aerodynamics kicks in and keeps the bird aloft. For example, the law of inertia might be temporarily
