Welcome Scott. I like what you have to say. Yes those with the highest degrees have great memories. And they repeat the same stuff over and over again. My own work is original and some Professors are interested in reading it while most are afraid to fill their mind with new thoughts. As on Professor emailed me recently, the science they work on consists of little bits and pieces of theory that they try to fit into existing theory.
Look at all the people who work on string theory and hate it. when i worked as an Engineer, the government asked for a project, they paid the bills. My company agreed to do the job. My job was to build something to meet the requirements. I had freedom to design how I chose but it had to meet the defined requirements.
The institutions define the tasks. They pay the researchers. Some people may come up with new ideas but the boss has to decide if anyone will do a new task. The government accepts some ideas but again someone must pay. Thus science is locked into ideas that are paid for.
I do my "Gravity and the Dot-wave theory" on my own. It is a hobby and a quest. It is like climbing a mountain that no one climbed before.
Good luck in your effort. You can always self-publish on Kindle for basically no money. My books used to cost me $6000 each for 1000 copies. Now it costs nothing. However I do not advertise and my sales are small but I do get some professors who I email and who request a copy. Yet these professors are looking for theory beyond the standard model. So there is a audience for my work and perhaps your work although it is not for money.
I made my living as an Engineer but my hobby was science. And it is a good hobby.
