You can’t keep a good scientist down, but..

Despite weeks of relentless searching through the AMS data, Gideon and I have found nothing. One must always have courage in their scientific convictions and I know that even the most respected of researchers doubts themselves, but I must admit I’m beginning to entertain fears of failure. I can hear the many arguments with my peers about my theories ringing in my ears. Theories they described as ‘unfounded’, ‘fringe’ even ‘dangerous’ science. Were they correct? Could I have been wrong all this time?
