Just imagine Marconi considering his project a deadend? 
I'm sorry Walter, I have to disagree with you. 
Lets fast forward to the year 2005.

I’m confused. “Misguided” means that someone is headed in a wrong direction. Sharing expertise to help someone out shouldn’t require an apology. Should I apologize for being an Elmer? Should I let people use poor engineering practices to avoid hurting anyone’s feelings?

We want people to have more successful projects, avoiding well-known dead ends.
