Nah, not for me. I'm not a glory hound.

It has nothing to do with glory and everything to do with the responsibilities attendant to discovery. When G_d hands one a talent, one is commanded to make it grow, or pay dearly. Honestly, I doubt you'd want to trade places.

...the responsibilities attendant to discovery.
Hmmmm...we're both here sharing our thoughts, opinions and knowledge at the largest conservative website which is ranked very highly worldwide.
I feel very comfortable in concluding that I've effectively shared what I've discovered and have done so for well over 12 years (since around late 1992 actually, but that's before FR). I haven't made a penny off of my efforts, I've never asked for credit for any accomplishments I made, or might have helped make, and I'm happy with that. I consider all that I've done to be charitable works.

When G_d hands one a talent, one is commanded to make it grow, or pay dearly.
Whose talent are we speaking of here, yours or mine? What exactly do you consider my talent to be?
Or are you obliquely telling me to "get off my duff and do something with my life"?

Honestly, I doubt you'd want to trade places.
I'm content with my life. Why would I want to change places?
