I have withdrawn from public view several posts in this thread which crossed the line regarding the code of conduct on this site -- as well as references to a review elsewhere on the web. I strongly urge anyone who is concerned about something they read elsewhere on the web to please go to that site and discuss it there, because I sure don't want it here.

Many thanks to Ken Ross for the quote of the day, above: "I'd rather trust my own observations and my own A/Bs conducted side by side on the same day, same time, same scenes...for me that's the definitive test and far more useful than words, numbers or anecdotes." That should be printed on a T-shirt and vended. Very well said, and a great way to close out this thread.

Much appreciation also to Dave Blackhurst for all of his valuable input and feedback here. I look forward to hearing more from both of you in other discussions on DV Info Net, but for now this particular one is closed.

Thanks all,
