Silenced? I believe you can rest assured such is not the case. Go look
him up on Google. It's amazing how loud silence can actually be, if
you're listening.

I have no doubt that he will never be silenced, nor his critics. The one
blessing is that unlike the Wrights nobody will likely be arguing about
ZZZ in a hundred years.
Could be, but you can rest assured the chances of someone talking about you
in a hundred years is but a very small fraction of that.
It's not so much if a tree falls, it's more a case of if you rob a liquor
store and nobody can place you at the scene, you didn't do it in the eyes
of any judge.
chuckle The last time I checked, Lakehurst NAS used to draw literally
hundreds of thousands of people, particularly for their Blue Angels
performances. You gotta work on your analogies, pal.
I know a man who claims to have hit twenty hole-in-one shots, all without
witnesses. I completely disregard his claim, as I do some others. I've hit
a single hole-in-one and doubt I'll ever hit another, but my name is on
the clubhouse wall and his isn't.
I tried golf. Once, got a birthday gift, 10 hours of lessons. Was being
taught how to hit the ball with the #1, at the driving range. I sucked, then
got a bit better and whacked one hard, up and straight down the range. The
ball happened to hit a bird, one of those long legged white ones that hang
out at landfills and near shorelines. I'm probably the only person in Puerto
Rico to have ever accomplished such a feat at a driving range. There must
have been some 50 people there, all practicing, just a 30 second walk from
the clubhouse. They were all astounded. No plaque on the wall, no record.
The only one I care about who was there to remember was my son. Do you think
I give a flying intercourse who else remembers, whether any photos were
taken, who were the witnesses, etc.?
