Yeah but the Wrights were following research from all over the world, including England and Germany. You might as well say that the Wrights were also funded by the British government.
- stonogo 4y agoYes, that's how research works. What's your point?
- carabiner 4y agoThe Wrights didn't start from a government-funded initiative. Using govt resources, like public roads or receiving public schooling as a child doesn't make every subsequent output a "government initiative." This is semantics at this point though. You've made up your mind, and so have I, and you're obviously sitting on this thread to rapid fire rebut on this Tuesday night. Here you go, have the last reply:
- stonogo 4y agoI didn't say anything about roads or school. The Smithsonian actively executed aviation research by physically building and flying powered aircraft. These experiences were among the information sent to the Wrights. The Wrights' work was directly informed by government experimentation at the Smithsonian. I don't understand how better to communicate this, and I don't understand why you got weirdly personal about it. I hope things get better for you.
