<p>Geez, did you even read my posts? I wasn’t talking about the boy to the OP I was talking about him to you! And I never said, he did it all on his own without any support, I said the idea was his not somebody else’s.</p>
<p>I am not trying to discourage the OP in any way but you keep trying to twist my words to come out that way. Btw, I know plenty of examples of kids who read journals or scour the internet and come up with novel ideas on their own. A girl out on Long island immediately comes to mind who worked on negative bubbles. I think she did most her her research just in her room.</p>
<p>Anyway, I’m done sparring with you. All that matters is that the OP hopefully gets into wherever she is hoping to attend. I wish her good luck!</p>
