Ron,
let me wrap this up and put a bow on it for you.
1. you are selling something publicly and making claims publicly. Welcome to the world of ownership and responsibilty. (obviously you seem to be unaware of your elevated status)
2. if your testing was as good as your eloquent deflection of each point we wouldn't be here right now.
3. quit whining like a newbie with a 73 pickup w/ 454-4bbl claiming 35mpg on the highway at 75 pmh.
4. I personally took offense to your claim that we had uor heads in the sand. (the paradigm comment). THAT was when my attitude started.
5. FYI, if you were on here any abount of time, and read posts that DIDNT have your name in them, you would realize that there are some VERY VERY smart posters on here from all over the world. In aerodynamics, flow, heat transfer, tire compound, oil, gasoline, regulations.....the list goes on.
6. And what you maynot realize is there is a pattern or 'bell curve' that develops in the macro and micro picture of 'posters'. In the macro world posters ramp up pretty quick with factual information and knowledge when they: a.) have to give b.) realize that the typical ecomodder poster can follow along. You have shown to NOT be one of those posters. your knowledge seem to be wrapped around a 'passive/aggessive, poor me for randomly discovering this' english language vocabulary which you artfully thrust about like a blunt fencing foil.
uppps, I covered macr & micro in the same sentence........dang.
