Thanks to Drs. Darren Rhodes and Yuehui Zhou for
suggestions.
It took me 20+ years before I figured out how
electrons move in concerted cycloadditions. It was my
solid computational data that led me to propose a new
and general electronic mechanism. I have been
struggling for about 7 years to get this thing
published.
I am not trying to attack any referees or editors from
a few journals. But they did use fierce languages to
reject my papers. The 70-years old puzzles already had
caused a strongly divided scientific community. And
the conceptual confusion derived from orbital control
theories flooded in the chemical literature for nearly
a half of century. And the referees had a very limited
time to evaluate my manuscripts. It is understandable
to me that no one in the community can immediately
accept my new thinking. If I were one of the referees,
it is highly likely that I would reject this kind of
papers too!
Therefore, as a scientist responsible for science, I
had to stand up and took the challenge to spread the
new knowledge from my computational studies. I am
really grateful to the modern human civilization of
the Internet communications. Initially I set up my own
web site - Coulombiclab.com and my home office - The
Coulombic Lab of Computational Chemistry. But later, I
realized I could afford all the costs including
computational softwares to hardwares as we have three
kids to feed. I started to seek alternative
websites.....
I have no interest to attack any people. But science
has to be made correct unconditionally no matter where
and no matter who you are. Science will move forward
and no body can stop it.
I welcome any comments to my papers. I am ready to
explain my theory anywhere and anytime as allowed by
by my busy life. I have the confidence that I can
convince the public of my explanations of concerted
cycloadditions if I am given a chance.
Thanks to every one for attention.

Why not send to peer reviewed journals first? That's
the usual way to get acknowledged.
