Right. At one time someone was sitting around saying “What if we could go to the Moon?” and another someone was sitting there saying “That’s a stupid idea.”

Seems to be general human nature to ridicule new ideas.

That's too bad. I've often been inhibited from elaborating on ideas that I've not had the skill or time to seriously evaluate, but superficially, seem practical and maybe even valuable. I guess fear of ridicule suppresses many good ideas.
