Shame at Edmund Scientific.

I hope you realize that by boycotting them you might simply drive them to only sell things like poltergeist deflectors.

IMO learning how to distinguish between noise and signal, and the capabilities/limitations of the instruments one is using, is also part of doing science.

Whether that's likely to happen at a "Paranormal Party" probably depends on the people involved. Either way, I don't fault ES for selling the hardware.

If they sold the hardware stand alone I have no problem. When they sell the kits with instructions that doubtless encourage the user to read the noise as the signal there is little hope.

The best science equipment in the world is useless if the instructions don't tell you how to calibrate it properly.

You did see the catalog pages I posted, yes?

If they did take that route, I suspect you'd have Omni magazine in catalog company form.
