Hello,

Please examine your classmates' ideas and critiques. Many are quite informative and I won't repeat their words here (well, maybe a few).

You've got to be careful here. How are you going to do good decent science here? You have no predictions and you seem to be testing a theory that has already proven to be wrong. Your evaluation of the literature is quite poor (I realize that you are just beginning)

The bottom line:
What's the point of this work?
