when I was kid there was science exhibition or something like that in Trichandra campus.I visited the exhibition. Following stalls were very interesting in that exhibition.
1. You can type Nepali in computer: there was a gentleman Mr. Shakya, who I think was computer engineer or software engineer had made possible to type Nepali from English keyboard. I typed my name, I was very much excited. Next day there was news in Gorkhapatra "Nepali computer". My brothers were laughing at the news. I was thinking why my brothers have teasing attitude towards that news? Now I know.
2. A young guy (I guess he was around 20) had developed a method by which you can produce soap from human stool, I was very much interested and requested him to explain. He told me that we eat lots of fat ( probably he was referring to momo, in general what I believe is fat intake of Nepalese is not that high ) and lots of it come out with stool undigested, use caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) to make salt of fatty acids (traditionally soaps are sodium or potassium salt of fatty acids). he was saying if govt uses his technique we dont need to imports soaps from other countries.
3. in one of the stall there was a Nepali made tempo( three wheeler) which can accommodate 12 people comfortably.
They all were complaining that govt is not listening to them, govt is bad. I was also thinking govt should help these people. All these stalls were able to make big headlines in news paper.
Later I met a guy who claimed he was studying engineering or something in India, he built a small machine which when fitted in shoes can produce electricity. According to him, It was smashing news in Indian media and BATA approached him. He denied to provide the BATA the technology then next day he started to receive threat calls so he fled to Nepal. He applied for a grant so that he can produce those machine commercially but govt denied. He was angry with govt. This was also published in gorkhapatra and other newspaper of that time. All of them disappeared.
I also went through news of related to this thread. this is nothing but over hyped headliner from a news paper. Judging from the experience and standard of Nepali journalism it may be a advertise fort he school (this is the time for +2 admission isnt it). If you have money it is not that difficult to get a headline in newspapers.
In order to say Einstein and Newtons theory wrong, we need to ask which theory?? on what level?? You need either mathematical formula which can explain the natural phenomena or the experimental proof. they understand that they may be wrong in matter anti matter reaction and behavior only not on the level the guy is claiming.
It reminds me my plus two days, one guy was clever after the chemistry class the guy ask us what is "H" we all answered hydrogen. He said no, H is a 8th letter in Latin alphabet which we also used as a symbol for hydrogen he was true.
