[pp.int.general] The Venus project?

[P. Maechler]

I usually spend some amount of my time on exploring existing ideas,  
because I'm convinced that I'm not the necessarily the best person  
ever to conceive ideas; making use of existing shared ideas is one of  
the primary principles of pirates and democracy. Of course I'm not  
dedicating a lot of my time to ideas where I perceive clear  
shortcomings in arguments or feasibility from my perspective, but in  
order to make my mind up I still have to explore them first.

Depending on person there are certainly different thresholds for which  
they choose to refute an idea; I assume to have a low threshold  
concerning the first phases (where the decision to refute is rather  
based on personal experience, than rational arguments), but later on a  
rather medium to high threshold when it comes to the question whether  
the idea could be put into practice.
