1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    there is nothing wrong with that.
    the guy has bigger dreams than most people will ever dare have. leave him alone.
    it's not just seeing one goal of two decades achieved, it's knowing he is in the middle of dreams that most people think he'll never achieve.
    i can imagine perfectly the emotional weight of that.

    People say he is crazy, but to make such progress and move the needle in the world, you need to be. You cannot make a change if you are doing what others are.. Just a thought :)

    He has become very full of himself but you are right many major advances in science or technology came from people who were outsiders. Einstein for example was thought to be a nut until universities actuly read his papers and realized he had changed the game.

    I think he's the epitome of cool. He has these amazing ideas and he just turns them into reality. Having ideas is one thing, but actually making them real, and having the ability to make them work, is just brilliant.

    He may have amazing ideas, but he has other people turn them into reality for him. He doesn't design this stuff himself...

    I agree. Although, there are a lot of businesses and industries where he can put his money in yet he chooses a high-stake industry that may gain profit only after years.
