Good work John.

My second favorite physicist, Dr. Feinmann, was fond of trusting the data.
His words at a lecture long ago went something like...Regardless of the
qualifications of the hypothesis, one well executed experiment is worth a
thousand well educated guesses. ( not at the Challenger probe but long
before).

Or something like that.

Sheet, mon, just measure it.   Then you'll have a first order measurement of
what it is.  Several measurements with different instruments under a small
variance of conditions will affirm the first measurement.

Lord Kelvin said something like that.

Unca Joel, you knew Kelvin, what exactly did he say?

I seem to remember something about "unless you can express it in numbers,
your knowledge is of a meagre and insufficient kind".

Anyone got a 094 bellhousing you can give to Brian at SmallCar?  (vanagon
