You say you have seen promising results, and I certainly believe you. You need to write a professional paper. You need to invite qualified experts to your lab. You need to solicit enough funding to do the research properly. If you will not take these steps, your work will be forgotten, you will have wasted 20 years, and you will have no one to blame but yourself. Ed Storms, Pam Boss and others have published and done their best to persuade others their work is valid. If they are not funded, the decision makers in the Navy and elsewhere are to blame.
