You want to know the really, really short version of why I joined Steemit? I joined because my 20 year old research project has been flatly ignored by the natural medicine community and it is hard to find any backers. As I am an indie developer in the field of natural medicine, that makes life hard.
Really hard. As I come to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the project ( August, 2017 ), the project faces 'winding down'. I say that because I can't bring myself to thinking about the reality of closing it. Which is something the younger me in the photo would never have imagined would be happening at this stage of his career.
So, rather than keep knocking on closed doors, I'm looking to the crypto-community for support. You guys get the concept of innovation and risking something on new ideas. If you want to support 'the next generation of plant medicine', flick me 1 Steem cred. If you want to read about my
What exactly is the discovery that you made? I checked out your website but it was not clear to me. Are you making extractions of something in the Bromeliacea family? I am interested in your work, not in hearing that it has been ignored. Maybe a thorough explanation of what you discovered, how you think it can be used, and for what, would make a good post to gain traction here. Also if you wanted to open source your discovery, it would show commitment to the discovery and not the commitment to being the discover-er that I infer from how much you type about being ignored.
I want to see more plant solutions!

Thanks for your feedback. Did you know that your comment is the most constructive that I have had since 2003, when I came up with the work? Literally. And I have spoken at health conference, taught workshops and provided free resources to schools and the feedback I got was crickets. "Feedback starvation" is my problem. While I don't plan on complaining on the internet forever, the tone of my posts is me at my most honest. Pressures are mounting on several fronts ( health being the main one ) and I find I am being forced out of the industry. Covering over the problems I face in r&d, remaining silent and "keeping going" have been a part of the problem. So now on Facebook and social media, I am letting people know the real story. Some of it has been from my mismanagement, some has been from outside sources. That said, I take your feedback and will angle my commentary to those who are interested in the work.

My work revolves around the study of a single plant family. And what the classifications of family, sub-family, genus and species means in therapeutic / human psycho-emotional terms. The aim is to create a template to translate other plant families and the specific target is to work on food plants that we commonly use. Like the block chain, the insight has benefits in other areas of medicine. Further down the track I think we could produce a new type of medicine with a component that reduces / negates the side effects. A blended medicine with this "new technology" powered by a fresh insight into nature. There, that's it in a nutshell.

It's basically botanical classification 2.0.

P.s. Thanks again for your real feedback. I was beginning to think that bots were taking over this site. I will also note the .87c upvote you got as part of your feedback. Okay, if that's what people want to see, then I will upload my back catalogue of material.

Somewhat belatedly, but hopefully still helpful... After this first reply to @firstwords, all the rest of your replies are to your own comments, so they wouldn't have come up in his replies feed, and he would only have seen them if he came back to the post.

Thanks. The discovery is kind of like Bitcoin. It has wide reaching implications and is universal in nature. it gives health practitioners more diagnostic information among other things. Thanks for the follow.

I might be able to bring you in contact with some people who might be interested in you work. Do you have an abstract about what you discovered/have done? (similar to the Bitcoin and Steemit whitepapers)
If you have, I can pass it on and bring you in contact. If this works out, I think it can definitely help society as a whole forward.

Okay. I've published a range of articles on the subject and am continually refining the page where it is situated. You just reminded me to upload the first conference paper I wrote in 2006 on the subject. Must dig up the journal also and screenshot it. The page where it is detailed is here and it is the link I forward around. Please excuse the website at the moment as a recent update has thrown out the design. http://www.skyflowers.co/bromeliad-family/
