It seems like the only people who got upset were the ones who are scared that they don't actually practice real engineering?
...I'm just kidding...I'd rather not get my 'ear' slapped again.
But seriously, yes I have a good idea with which smart people 'reasonably skilled in the art' think will work (anyone with patents knows what I'm talking about

).
My PI and I are obviously very busy, he wants to meet in the next few days for more discussion on the bearing topic/review what I have on it so far, in addition to selecting my method of attack. So yes the ice is breaking with the project, but I never promised it would be implemented soon
