Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

Go to the back of the class!

You fail to grasp the original point of my mentioning the article -- that supposed scientific experts in the field jumped to the same conclusion you and numerous others have: the concept of the "rocks in jar" sounds too ridiculous to investigate further, thus should be pronounced "rubbish." Ditto for the readers of that austere publication. Arrogance and ingorance, plain and simple (no offense to you, personally).

Making the Journal and its readership appear even more foolish, if that is possible, is that the author apparently boosted much of the material for his "article" off of Wikipedia -- Hell, a fifth-grader could do better than that!

As for your argument, it continues to be a Appeal to Authority, a rather weak one at that. Can I suggest you get a hold of the Skeptics Handbook? You will be better prepared and have higher entertainment value when trolling these waters.
