I apologize iin advance for getting in this issue but are you familiar with the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MTBI)? While you cannot determine someones personality type from postings you can get some indications. Indi, I would guess you as something close to an ISTJ and Ode closer to an INTP. Google the type or MBTI and you will get more info than you want. The point I want to make is not your type but to point out that you both have different personalities that color your view of the world. As do I and every member of this list. We each will look at what Ode has done and make our own evaluation of the methods and results independently. I appreciate the information Ode has provided since it is information I would not have otherwise. You, Ode and I each have different standards for determining what is acceptable 'proof' but that does not make any others standard unacceptable as a criteria. You can use your criteria without insisting that everyone else use it too. The problem with hard scientific proof is that is that such proof is often unachievable and that lack of such proof if required prevents release of otherwise useful information. Ode provided his information and test methodology and I think that is sufficient for one to understand and evaluate the data. - Steve N

Around three hundred dollars for true answers. I realize it isn't cheap (or even affordable for most of us). A good chemical analysis is not something an untrained person can do at home. People get degrees in chemistry, you know. :) As I've said before, my point is speaking in ABSOLUTES is irresponsible when your "testing" is so rudimentary. "Feelings", anecdotal evidence, belief, etc do not disprove this point one bit. Sorry if that gvets people's dander up, but I am not about to abandon all principles of critical thinking just because some here want to make unsubstantiated claims. Data is data. Either one has it or one doesn't. :) indi On Sat, Oct 18, 2008 at 11:45:05PM +1030, Neville wrote: > > ----- Original Message ----- From: "Indi" <indule...@comcast.net> > To: <silver-list@eskimo.com> > Sent: Saturday, October 18, 2008 2:53 AM > Subject: Re: CS>blue moons revisited > > > Quote: > [armed with only an EC meter and a laser pointer, for the simple reason > that those devices are not enough to *prove* your claims (in scientific > terms).] > > In the absence of suitable laboratory testing equipment, in the home, > which is where most users involved with EICS are, perhaps you could steer > me in the direction of a more accurate, better or more suitable > instrument so that I may be able to assess my EICS in a more acceptable > and precise manner.
