No. I'm assuming that your use of "weakness" is incorrect here, and your
point is that their reaction to your work is phony. Yet another aspect
of narcissism: it's so unfathomable to you that anyone *really*
disagrees with you that when they appear to, you assume they're faking.
In your belief that everything revolves around you, you imagine there to
be a concerted effort against you, a conspiracy, as though any of these
people really spends any time thinking about you at all when not
rejecting your contributions that in reality are virtually lost among
those of the scores or hundreds of others they find lacking OR have no
room to publish month after month or quarter after quarter.
I understand that your only choice is to go for the man
(narcissism:-) instead of the ball, which has long been resting behind
the line.
Again,when shall this highscore of mine ever be announced?

Ole, please, stop deluding yourself !..
1)- You are believing in FALSE assertions.
So, you wrote (I quote your link) :"...some eminent persons ...
independently have tried to crack this riddle ; unfortunately without
the necessary success..". Well, I told you once : I've examined myself
ALL the then known attempts at deciphering the Phaistos Disk. All have
some flaws indeed (yours included), except ONE : the "Proto-Ionian
Solution", which is moreover supported by lots of proofs. I asked you
to get a look at THIS solution, and to say what was wrong with it and
with the proofs supporting it, so you would have the right to write
what you wrote. BUT YOU NEVER DID !.. You went on, writing that "all
the other proposed solutions were unsuccessful", without refuting a
single one of the tens of proofs mentioned!..

In Ray Bradbury's "The Martian Chronicles", astronauts from Earth arrive on Mars where they are greeted with indifference and eventually led to a facility for what they think will be a celebration. And in the facility there is one: when one of the astronauts announces, "We're here from Earth", the Martians in the room burst into cheers and gather around them. One of them says [I'm paraphrasing from memory], "It's good to see others from Earth. I left a long time ago." "Wait--you're from Earth? You look like the Martians." "I am from Earth, a planet that is all ocean." Another chimes in, "No, it is all jungle." A third, also with yellowish skin and six fingers on each hand, claims, "No, it is a crystal planet! I am from Earth, and I know." At that point the astronauts realize with horror that where they've been taken is an insane asylum.
