Quite so - Curiously, ice fits this descriptor - and glaciers qualify as metamorphic rocks, though they have rheidities (a unit of time) that are substantially different from those of most things we consider mineral or rock.
In general - thousands or more samples are run to assess a method. When a *strange* result comes back - it's looked at. Not simply chucked for a dogma - in fact - finding a flaw in an established procedure would be the biggest break a 'tenure-minded, publish or perish' researcher could hope for. A break to a new methodology - early in their career - sounds good to me. Choosing a *flawless* (in your context) method instead of choosing something the data can back up is a sure way to *perish* in the research environment.
An ad hominem is an attack against the person. My posting says follow the thread to see the fallacy in the argument, just as you have failed to see it again. Thinking perhaps that by wasting my time you have done some royal service for the creator by distracting a scientist. Instead this same technology, you may someday be looking towards to save a life. Sad person. Toodles.
I worked in the Arctic - I listened for this since I read of this. I wasn't sure... One night - very cold - like described, but there was little around to interfere with - it was pretty much hard packed snow - and I could only get a little away from camp where it was noisy. Inconclusive. I just heard from someone who said they *heard* the recent aurora on a PA system.
That is a good possibility too - the person you're responding to has such a wild eyed zeal - It's not worth it - I was thinking they were talking about something to do with calibration - But you may be right. If you want to see how poor their logic becomes - follow the other thread - Then we have to admit - Perfectly self-contained - and bullet-proof. Truth be damned!

What I'm saying goes back to the earlier post - that the multi-sensory experience is what many users want -Like being able to put that phone in vibrate mode - This is not as a result of people with a lack of those sensory inputs thinking of design.
I mean imagine if a group of humans 'suddenly' evolved some new sensory ability - it doesn't matter what - if it appeared everyone was going in that direction, it would be a smart move to consult with those people as to what the experience was like for them.
My point is that for many people who don't have visual or hearing abilities - or both - or some other 'deficit' - they in fact have made up for it by heightening other sensory input.
This isn't evolution, but those people may have 'insights' into what would matter for all of us. And in that case, I wonder where six times as expensive to account for features fewer than 1% of customers will ever need comes from.
BTW - It used to be - I don't know if it still is true - Mercedes Benz would employ blind people who had heightened their sense of touch input for checking for surface flaws on design models.
Good point - I wonder if the model that's being followed is actually the same as that in "Utopia" where entire villages would be moved from place to place, and within each village 'families' would change locations quite often...
About the apology need - I still don't see the need - I think things should be said - And then we find out who is offended by the content - By using terms like 'PC BS' - that has a 'hot-button' appeal to a certain number of people (like the term - 'hot-button' does to others:))
I still think a good engineer actually designs with the thought in mind that we are all employing many senses all the time - leading me back to the parent - that no - products are not being crippled by the including the needs of the 'crippled' - in fact it probably makes life better for the rest of us
And it seems the real issues you have the parking thing are either about - enforcement - which should be applied more evenly - or the application - and there will probably always be some who abuse this - or some who may be getting those permits for others - or size of the store/lot and here - I think it just doesn't matter - A lot of those little lots are a real pain to park in I admit - but I think those spaces should be available as needed - maybe there will be a technology in the future(?) - but that's an opinion.
As for all those empty spaces, that's a good indication of how few have these needs - yet look at how disproportionately opinion is that people abuse this system. I think people generally don't. General agreement on main points - perhaps a few points remain? Perhaps no need to go too much further - eh?
Oh - a calibration sample - used to check equipment and the results get tossed. How ah - ("comforting, you were thinking?") - but then again - I was hoping for something to turn my head around. As a person with a sense of adventure, I am always hoping for results that don't 'fit' - I think you'll find most scientists think that way - Quite the opposite of having a - what is it a faith at the center of their belief system (quite the oxymoron there - eh?)
You can start here. (Follows pre-Enlightment model by placing conclusion in middle)
And perhaps you will claim understanding these only comes through faith. Perhaps for you it will.
Perhaps you may it of interest that many students at CalTech often pass a sign that says - 'The truth shall make you free.' Perhaps you will not.
I suspect that you will want to have the last word here, in some from or another - Something about a certain need I perceive.

the team had hoped their study would help create more efficient radar systems for the military.
They said they didn't achieve what they set out to - I wonder if they came up with anything else.
In this case, will the company get patent rights for commercial application since it was a military research investigation... apparently if it's being reported.
An interesting statement - food juxtaposed with that ability.
It seems the kernel of the statement - good humor aside - is:
Sorry, but the "cripple the product to accomodate crippled users" PC BS kinda peeves me. Humans have a basic level of sensory and motor capability. Where convenient, we can make life easier for those lacking some of those capabilities, but in most cases, a multi-sensory product will do its job more efficiently.
First, who are you apologizing to?
Second, as you state it is the multi-sensory product that makes the market - So I don't see in what ways products are supposed to be "crippled" to accommodate "crippled users".
Third, you say you're 'kinda peeved' (in paraphrase) - in what ways has your life been negatively impacted by accommodating someone with a handicap - Other than perhaps having to park a few spaces further back? I'm curious if this is an abstraction or something that you have real experience with and in what ways.
I agree in this post - I say some people with physical disabilities might have opportunities as consultants because they could have insights into design.

Any joke based on the fact that geeks have no life and/or sex
I agree with your post - though in this case, the subject really is about the person posting having *no life*.
While there are many jokes listed - also a lot of good advice - looks like people who have had this problem also have found ways to deal with it.
You'll probably meet someone - don't be too geeky about what you do - and don't come across like you're too special or too much of a loser to stay home - it is what is.

5% error - should be 2% error
+ or - 5 in 10^6 for accuracy for 250*10^6 is still only 5% error - that's 95% accuracy if I read the best of intentions into your post.
To believe in a technique whose calibration results are incorrect by six or more orders of magnitude is so absurd that it defies comprehension.
The number of years in orders of magnitude really doesn't matter if the total years is similarly scaled.
If you are suggesting the entire technique gives results that have errors that are off by that order of magnitude for all results, you are wrong.
