Honestly, you mentioned it in there, but there are people that've been working at this for far longer than we have been thinking on this; I'd suggest finding a monastery or nunnery nearby and speaking to them about it. I realize this may be kind of obvious and low-hanging as far as suggestions go, but it's the best I've got. I wish you the best fortune in your endeavours.

If you do, take what they say with a grain of salt. A monastery is unlikely to tell outsiders stories of how they screwed up and screwed.

To me it seems that hg00 is suggesting something

  • informed by these experts
  • less extreme
  • more practical
  • and presumably more scientifically sound
