Re: [ATM] There seems to be a reoccurring motif among this list.

Sounds like you're attaching WAY too much of yourself to your
ideas.
Remember that you can always do what you wantt to do even if
everybody else is saying no to it.  If they were right, then
you'll be able to go back and understand why they all told you
no.
Personally, I'd rather throw an idea out to the world and let
them mash it to pieces and then gradually pick up the pieces and
build it better.  It wasn't until the idea of patents and so
forth of telling the rest of the world how to do something
interesting that the industrial age really got started.  Before
that time, if a person found a way to do sometihng interesting,
they kept that knowledge to themselcves as much as possible and
thus that knowledge died with themselves.
I'll also note that there are some on the list and elsewhere
(they are just part of the Bell Curve, you know) who do tend to
be testerone enhanced but there are others that don't really get
wound up that way.  Let your ideas out to fight for themselves
and reap the rewards of having them produce a better product.  In
other words, stop being your own testerone enhanced idiot.

Replace the obvious words with the proper character.
