So this is an "independent test" in your book, when you freely acknowledge that Levi and Rossi have been friends and colleagues for a long time? And you see no hypocrisy when Rossi says that any equipment may be used, and then Levi constrains that (following perhaps dicta from Rossi)? This all sits nice and comfy with you?

Had you been paying attention to the interviews with the testers, you would have read that quote as #7 in a list of 7. I am aware that Levi is in charge of choosing equipment. The question here is: Why did you respond to that by saying "Yup, ethical as all get out"? It seems to me, you are saying sarcastically that Levi cannot be trusted. Is that what you mean? Please answer Yes or No. You seem to be saying that Levi cannot be trusted because he is is friend of Rossi's. If you automatically distrust anyone who is a friend of Rossi's, or has worked with Rossi, or assisted him, then you accuse a broad range of people of being criminals or dupes, including me. Is that your intention? It seems to me you are saying that anyone who investigates Rossi and reaches a positive conclusion -- no matter how carefully stated and conditional -- is a criminal or a dupe. As for motives, you seem to miss the obvious one, but I won't speculate about it publicly. Lord knows, that might be "libellous". If it is "obvious" I think you speculate about it publicly. I repeat, you are -- in effect -- accusing me and many others of criminal activity. This is a serious matter. I suggest you put up or shut up. - Jed
