Hi Jabba, I think you're flogging a dead horse here, and I wonder why, unless you have some missionary dreams of converting the non-authenticists on this site to the One True Answer to the question of the Shroud of Turin. Instead, might I suggest:
1) If you want to know more about any of the evidence discovered about the Shroud, go to Shroud.com and type in the subject (e.g 'patch') in the search box.
2) If you want to inquire about the meaning of what you have found, or why it is controversial, or want to discuss it, then go to Shroudstory.com, find the list of Categories, and add a comment to the most recent entry of that Category, or alternatively simply write your question below the most recent topic on display, whatever it is.
3) If you want to explore the actual Shroud for yourself, go to
http://www.sindonology.org/shroudScope/shroudScope.shtml, where you will be able to examine it in close-up.
4) I suggest that you only post on this site to ask a specific question, such as (choosing your current 'patch' interest) "How do you account for the radiocarbon corner containing cotton fibres, while the rest of the Shroud does not?" or "How do you account for Ray Rogers's finding vanillin on the Raes sample, but not on the rest of the Shroud?"
5) If you are going to ask about something a bit more obscure, find out about it first (see my earlier suggestions) and then make sure you give a reference so that people can check the context. Such as: "How do you account for the unusually wide spread in the radiocarbon dates which even the authors of the Nature paper admitted was "somewhat greater than would be expected from the errors quoted? (https://www.shroud.com/nature.htm)"
I hope this helps.
