We are going to fix a few things around here... just wait and see.

@EmilyMatijevich @EricHonert @BennoNigg Great progress! Love your articulation of the concept of the shoe's mechanical work. We benefit from distinguishing between the active mechanisms (ankle/foot) and reactive (shoes/prosthetic feet).

[Tom Cutler @Mr_Limbitless]

Did you know this about the origins of orthopedics? The IT band is simply missing from... well .. everything. And the result will blow your mind.
Instead of opinion, answers.

@ItaiYanai Wait, can't they just buy you off with snacks? 🤔

[Tom Cutler @Mr_Limbitless]

@DanielHadas2 @DrJBhattacharya This makes a case for purposeful and thoughtful mockery. Willful ignorance endures in the face of debate, but wilts from jibes.
Any eristic person can remain in denial of your valid points, but have you noticed?... It's the thoughtful wisecrack that gets in the armor's chink.

@WaltzingMtilda ...but if you say anything about tacos...
(ironically, that guy looks more like a "pizza 🍕 man to me than a taco hombre)

@ItaiYanai Oh... I don't know...

You can always put some LARP swords and armor on the stage and say that if there's no questions, you have the right to pull anyone out of the audience and fight them... If not to the death, then at least to an overly dramatic death scene.

@astro_greek @elonmusk "how would you visually show sarcasm?"...
Well, if italics leans one way to show you really mean it, why not reverse italics (lean left) means you really don't mean it?

@lwarnken15 @TomBroback Add heel lifts while teaching gastroc stretches. It relieves pain caused by gastroc's inability to keep up with tib/fib axial growth. Soleus has greater range, so it's fine.
And what are the kids wearing? 😏 Vans or Converse, naturally...

@BrianUmberger @daphna_raz @necozay So, knowing your origins gives your work more depth.

[Tom Cutler @Mr_Limbitless]

@BrianUmberger @daphna_raz @necozay It is a lack of philosophical and historical understanding of a field that traps most scientists in the prejudice of their day... Einstein, 1944.

[Tom Cutler @Mr_Limbitless]

@ItaiYanai "seem" is exactly right. These people are apparently unfamiliar with Einstein's concept of "combinatory play".

[Tom Cutler @Mr_Limbitless]

Smoking guns don't need clinical trials.

And it only confirms that your peer reviewers were idiots, too.

[Tom Cutler @Mr_Limbitless]

@tuuliel Well said. It's the difference between smart and obedient. Having intellectual integrity is not synonymous with having intellectual obedience.

[Tom Cutler @Mr_Limbitless]

@AcademicChatter Self aware people, yes! Except, in a Malcolm Gladwell book, he references a study where arrogant bluster ranked higher than the prudent doc confirming info from the other room.
Society feels entitled to perfection from experts. Too bad!

@RLRandallMD @UCDavisHealth @UCDavisOrtho @UCDavisMed @ucdavis @AAOS1 The inventor of Tonka trucks, Royce Rumsey, was McLaren's F1 photographer while an undergrad, invented a tourniquet and trach still in the Army medic kit, and later tried to trash a project his team hated... You know that project as the Power Rangers!

[Tom Cutler @Mr_Limbitless]

@Melterialsgal Yep!
FYI, UCLA PhD confirmed I had 90% chance my work would be stolen during peer review, so I've embedded the scholarly articles within my patent applications.
Only 12% of Univ tech transfer offices cover their budget with their efforts.
Enjoy!

@robinsall @AlekseyVBelikov @ItaiYanai Absolutely. It's not about replacing one sacred cow for a new sacred cow...
... it's about knowing how great it is to BBQ with colleagues. 🥩
