Thank you for this response.  This allows me to clarify the issues.

I wrote and released free and open source software, and I made a big
attempt to discuss the ideas and get feedback.

No one is willing to use the software, discuss the ideas, and give
feedback.

I wondered why this was, and I tried searching for info about someone
who I knew WOULD have ideas and feedback - EricVH.  I wanted to write
to him and see if he at least understood what I was up to.  I found
the Multi-pipe patent.

I think I CANNOT GET FEEDBACK because all the people who would/could
give me feedback won't do it because they would rather put the ideas
in ANTS into patentable form, so they won't talk about it here.

That is why I'm so angry.
