On This Thursday : January 3rd, 1496 - Da Vinci

So do you think he sabotaged his own machine?

@ScribbledAdNauseum He certainly may have. Of course, I can’t be sure what he was thinking.

@DianneN Nor can anyone, really. I just find it fascinating to opine on subjects like that.

It's really just a theory but one I tend to believe. I think he was genius enough to have realized the fault in his design before testing it. As an aside, have you noticed my theme? I've decided to try this out for a few months. Each day I have a different subject that I write on. Yesterday's was Mythology (though it wasn't quite about myths), the day before it was about murderers in history. Those who do themed discussions here seem to do relatively well. I wanted to test that out for myself.

@ScribbledAdNauseum That is a good idea Amber. Yes I have noticed and I have noticed those others who do this do quite well. Something to think about for sure.

@Courage7 Every little bit helps. I hear about how some of the mylotters who have been here for as long as I have (this is my second username) and how they are able to make so much. Plus there's Sharon, who seems to be on here all the time and I believe she makes around $20.00 monthly. That would require spending a lot more time than I have here though. I just want to try to make it to $15.00 this month, out of curiosity. I am also going to try to write more for Textbroker whilst searching for a job, doing some cleaning, and trying to work through my stress.

Yes, and of course it may not be true at all. I like to think it is because I would imagine someone as smart as Da Vinci was would have realized the design flaw.
