I did not think that a submission to the corral as an indictment, but the place for a debate to take place.

This is the second time this has happened, people making assumptions, so I just will not post anything in this section to prevent such misunderstandings in the future.

Fences and strakes are used on aircraft, so there might be something to this patent in my opinion.

We also see these features on more and more racing cars, and they are being regulated by the rules because they work, right?

This is all I had read before, guess I didn't get it fully - sorry.

Topics here should bring to mind Carl Sagan's words: "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence."

Proponents/defenders of mods & theories in The Unicorn Corral are urged to also see these threads:
Is it a myth or is it real?..................answer seems to be REAL.

So what tests have these devices passed?
