Why is that? If it's a properly conducted experiment with good documentation why do you think the larger scientific community would ignore this?

  Yes, I do. It's not published, it has no path to get into the attention of researchers. There's nothing a researcher can tell beforehand that says that all that documentation is high quality instead of just random trash. Laymen language does not align with academics ones. There are huge personal biases on every academic area. This happens all the time, by the way.

    > Is not published, Correct, but we are talking about it, somehow, and has been uploaded to internet, accessible from most countries of the planet, without restrictions at any time of day or night > It has no path to get into the attention of researchers maybe they could google it

    >>Yes, I do. Do what? >>It's not published, it has no path to get into the attention of researchers. I mean, there's nothing that stops this hypothetical spider-man from publishing? If I was going through the trouble of doing independent spider research and came across something I found novel and groundbreaking, that's what I'd do. Also, you still haven't stated your "many good reasons" for why this would be ignored other than "it (hypothetically) isn't published". You make a lot of assumptions, basically that people not working in academic settings are incapable of a-using language compatible with getting published and b- wouldn't want to get published which aren't true. >>This happens all the time, by the way. Of course it does. But "people in academia are still people and therefore accountable to their own biases and prejudicial decision making" doesn't fall under "good reasons to ignore a study" imo.
