Newton had Leibniz (and others) pushing calculus. Einstein made use of ideas from Lorenz pushing Relativity. Elisha Gray applied for a patent on the telephone the same day as Alexander Bell. Perhaps I should have been more clear. The fact that most people aren't doing what you are is no excuse to give up. If nobody is doing what you are maybe you are a super genius - or maybe you have a dumb idea.
