Claimed OU circuit of Rosemary Ainslie

[MileHigh]

Hey Rosemary,

Not wanting to pour gasoline on the fire let me give you my spin on Harvey.  He seems like a nice guy and is very intelligent.  A couple of weeks ago I was reading through a long posting of his where he was working with .99 on their simulation (I think) and what he said was getting way too convoluted.  At the same time I was loosing steam myself for following this thread and was deciding that I wasn't going to follow every new angle in nitty-gritty detail.

I have mentioned many times before that you can qualify someone's electronics knowledge by their statements or questions.  Harvey is reasonably knowledgeale but he has made some very revealing "techno babble" statements that clearly show that he has his limits as .99 stated.  So because of my fatigue with the thread and the "babble" I gave up on trying to follow Harvey's detailed tests, my brain went to mush when reading his stuff.  I give Harvey credit for firmly believing that "something's out there" and wanting to investigate it.   His prose bashing the "Classicists" was elegantly worded also.

Have you heard of the "Turing test?"  I will assume that you have or will look it up.  Imagine a "Turing test" for electronics and physics knowledge.  Aaron answers the first question successfully and then fails the test on the second question.  This happens repeatedly.  Harvey manages to answer a dozen or so questions and then fails the test.  I will back up Hoppy and .99 in their qualification of Harvey.

It almost sounds like you are in denial about Aaron and his "talents."  I gave Aaron a good bashing when he kicked my ass off of his site and that was just me acting on my emotions and he pretends that I am a nonperson now.  Nonetheless, everything I said about him being clueless about electronics and physics is true.  I squirm inside when I read Aaron's technical postings or watch his clips.

There is an easy way to clear up this situation
Aaron reproduces 5 of the working circuits and then he posts them to members like TK, Hoppy, Fuzzy, MileHigh, 99
Okay there is a cost but this can be sorted out once the principle is established.
Can you ask Aaron if he is willing to do this ?

Cat - Fuzzy's already on board with a full on replication of Aaron's negative waveform.  But the expense of duplicating the test isn't the issue.  Let the results speak for themselves and let replicators try it.  TK will never admit a gain and nor will MileHigh.

You have got to be joking
"TK will never admit a gain and nor will MileHigh"
This is the OU forum  they would scream about a gain, that is why we are all here

Golly MileHigh - four whole paragraphs and none of your analogies?  I can't speak for Harvey - but so far I see that he's the only classicist who is debunking as a debunk should be done.  He's investigating all options and assuming that the reported test results were honestly accredited.  I think he's also shown remarkable tolerance considering the 'dearth' of data available after these 10 long years.

Regarding the level of his expertise - come on MH.  It's not open for discussion. 

Regarding the Turing test?  I get it that this is a series of questions that get to the heart of a thesis?  I'm not that interested in looking it up.  But here's the thing.  The only pertinent question is this.  Is there any evidence of some co-efficiency of performance that is repeatably evident and in any way signficant?  Indeed.  But the evaluation of those measurements and the level of its significance is actually outside the competence of these forums.  Not because of lack of skill but because of a lack of impartiality.  The best we can hope for is to present the data - credibily obtained - and then presented to acknowledged experts to evaluate.  Hopefully we'll get there.

On a personal note - I hardly recognise you in this last post.  Is that really you?
