I GREATLY prefer to see you dangle carrots a la this thread than not contribute. It's a good way to learn for those of us interested. We can't have it both ways; we don't heavily moderate here so we get some stupid questions and flames to go with reasonably unfettered discussion.
I spent an hour today trying to convince a modeler that an outlying point on a plot of data was just "the way it was in the lab" and didn't justify modifications to the underlying chemistry in said model. I finally took him to the lab and showed him all the steps between "idea" and "data point". Ben will learn eventually by trying and doing (over and over) perhaps? Expensive lessons when dealing with equipment purchases though...
