A scientist, generally is not trained in metrology and is unlikely to be
more able or better equipped than someone who is. I do not know Deniss'
training, but my figures were also included in the post that Peter is
trying to find a reason for not accepting.
My figures came from methods and skill that would be hard to find among
non-engineering personnel, using equipment that is calibrated and itself
scrutinised to a high degree.
However you do not need to take my word for it, the plaster plugs from
Chris' original piece of comb still exist and can be re-measured if
there is any question about the accuracy of the original work.
Can you revisit the measuring of Tom Seeley, that you are defending so
strongly ?
