It probably could be. I'd be more than willing to collaborate with someone
willing and able to do the grunt work, including further development of the
rather crude (and possibly faulty) finite element calculations it is based on. A
doctorate in physics or a related field would be a definite plus, as would be
good writing skills demonstrated by a record of academic publications. Lots of
time at hand and no interest in compensation. Please send resumes to the above
e-mail address.

Wait, not all at once!
