When the witnesses are all against you, just claim that the witnesses are lying.
[snip condescending remark]
What more recent analysis?
Just for giggles, I wonder how many shots one would hear recorded In any busy urban setting on sixties dicta-belt recordings.
I'll save you the time, he'll say they're all wrong for whatever reason....
None of them are audible for the human ear. How is that for giggles?Just for giggles, I wonder how many shots one would hear recorded In any busy urban setting on sixties dicta-belt recordings.

It would be wise not to put other peoples senseless rantings under my signature, as if their short commings were actually, mine.Nope. I am pretty sure my Modern Apprenticeship in an engineering discipline makes me one of the lesser qualified people in the room.
I am more than happy to be corrected if there is any obvious flaw to my reading of the paper.
Not as far as I can see, in the paper itself. They made their assumptions clear, and stated the terms of the probability, and the scope of the paper was limited.
However, the way it is framed by many CT sources *is* fallacious.
They assume that because the impulses *could match* with a level of certainty, then they *did*.
No, it’s the other way around. IF anyone find any merit in any of the ’studies’ proclaiming to have refuted the HSCA acoustic evidence, they have to explain why., now that you are forced to acknowledge all of the various entities which have comprehensively debunked the HSCA findings, you have the burden of proof to show how they all got it wrong and your bug guy got it right.
Your one CT website won't be able to help you, obviously, any more than they have with every other topic you've had your head handed to you about.

Except for you, RoboTimbo, for you a blue idiot smiley will suffice.
No. You are the one claiming they are refuting the HSCA acoustic evidence since they are using ”a million times more sophisticated technology”, absent at the time of the original investigation.

Begin with naming ONE and explain the new technology and how/why it refutes the HSCA acoustic evidence.
I can’t do this for you.
You, willfully misrepresenting the methods used in the HSCA acoustic joint investigation doesn’t say anything about the actual investigation. It does say a whole lot about you, though. Your intentions and reasons for taking part in the discussion of said investigation.A brief fable about the importance of base assumptions:
Once upon a time there was well known trophy hunter who, with exclusive coverage from a popular British newspaper, was going to prove the existence of the Loch Ness monster.
He set baited traps, and arranged cameras to watch the few areas that a predatory animal the size of Nessie, would have to, by necessity of survival, visit often.
After some days, large marking in sand and mud were found, that looked, to the hunter's eyes, like footprints.
Now, science can tell a lot from footprints. By careful measurements, one can calculate the size, body length, weight and probable height of the creature. The hunter, and his associates were able to extrapolate, all of these and more. The probability of there being an unknown apex predator in the Loch, with a size and weight not unlike that of a dinosaur was so large it was a certainty, far more certain than any other outcome...
*IF* the marks were footprints.
That is to say, *if* the base assumption, that there was a single creature leaving those tracks, was correct.
Then a problem arose. The prints were all left by the same foot.
Not a creature with four, feet, but... the same foot, with the same toes, and the same markings on the sole.
It was discovered, eventually, that locals had "borrowed" an umbrella stand made from an elephant's foot from the pub, and left the tracks.
How is this relevant?
Because, in the scenario of the acoustic evidence, our sauropod is the placement of the motorcycles, and the start time of the recording. Our footprints are the impulse patterns deemed to be significant.
Significance was not determined by the calculations. The calculations were made based on tests that assumed significance. In other words: it was assumed the footprints were left by Nessie, and the tests were done to find where he had to be standing at the time, to leave those prints.
It can not be assumed the motorcycle was in the right place *because* the acoustic pattern then fits the five shots.
It must be *shown* a motorcycle was within nine feet, for pattern to match five shots with such a high probability.
Getting this back to front, and claiming it is logical, is intellectually dishonest. It is misrepresenting the data, and doing a did-service to those who compiled it.
No, it’s the other way around. IF anyone find any merit in any of the ’studies’ proclaiming to have refuted the HSCA acoustic evidence, they have to explain why.

You can post the entire report if you like, it still doesn’t say why YOU find it’s conclusions valid.I posted an entire section from the 2006 Science and Justice article dealing specifically with Don Thomas and the myriad of mistakes he made.
Did you miss it? Would you like me to post it again?
State your claim.
