It's more satisfaction at being shown to be right = my ideas matching reality. Our brains have evolved over a billion years to encode expectations of reality in our DNA and to enable experience and recording of current events to cope with recent phenomena of reality, all to help our genes propagate into the next iteration of the gene pool and reality, coming to a place near you first thing in the morning after mentally rehashing the events of the previous day overnight. We all have to develop models for what we expect to happen so that we can do well given whatever happens. Some of us are lucky in what does come up to challenge us and some of us are simply unlucky. But all of us have a greater or lesser ability to model reality on a day to day basis to predict the inevitable future in our personal realm and not just predict it but to change it. And not just change it in our personal future but everyone's. It's not much satisfaction to have goldenfreude but it does lead to some confidence that yet again my model of reality is not far off what is really going on and what can go on. Yet again it's more rewarding to follow my own determination of reality than that of the in-crowd. Everyone in the world [who is able to do so] is now using my amazing mobile Cyberspace technology, first conceived [by me] way back in 1989 and then developed over the next 20 years and is now the zeitgeist. Almost nobody uses my Globalstar service [first conceived for trucks back in 1987 while in Antwerp working for BP Oil International] and now trying to make the second constellation marketing a success. It's a doubtful proposition at present, I admit, which is why I have only a part-load of GSAT in my little Tonka Truck. But give it another half dozen years and I hope they will see the light [and adopt my marketing plans]. In another 15 years, people will be using my next amazing invention [nearing reality]. Heck, if I hurry I might even get my graviton spin reversal personal transporter up and running though I admit that's still only in prototype form and in some respects is more science fiction than reality. But actual physicists thought CDMA would not work, with one [from Stanford] claiming it breached the laws of physics. I create reality and other people use it. Gold bugs don't. The basic problem with gold bugs is that they look back for security. My father used to say forward is the only way to go. That stemmed in part from the tragic events of the past [I guess] and there were no laurels on which to rest. Life was a matter of survival and progress away and into the future. His and my mother's ancestors were survivors and adventurers heading to the other ends of the world to find a new life which might be better or less bad. The future beckoned, not the past. Mqurice
