IN CASE YOU MISSED.......

Carl, I'll place my honesty, truth, integrity, and ethics against yours for comparison any day. Dell

Hi Dell,
This sounds like a good idea. Why not compare your honesty, truthfulness, integrity, and ethics against Carl's. Do you suppose Carl would be willing to demonstrate a metal detector he built performing as he described it to perform? The Hammerhead PI, for example?

Here is a simple test that will give some good comparative results between you and Carl-NC:

Suppose both you and Carl meet at a large field that is clear of metal trash, then have an observer plant some metal coins in the ground about 6 inches below the surface within an area 50 feet square. Then you and Carl can take turns trying to locate the targets. We will quickly find out if either of you have been honest and truthful when describing what your hand-built detectors can do.

But you can ace Carl out if you have been truthful about your X-SCAN being the best Discrimination you have ever used for locating the combined ingredient of elements contained in paper currency or pharmaceuticals. Just think, After finding the hidden coins, you can show us how you can find hidden dollar bills and bottles of aspirin, while Carl can't! This will really prove who's telling the truth about the detectors they produce. Go show him up Dell!

Best wishes,
J_P

As Dell has stated on several occasions, he does not want to meet with Carl, despite numerous invitations. However, based on Dell's claimed abilities at mental dowsing, you would only need to send him a photograph of the site, and he could do the business from the safety of his kitchen table.

Dell may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to elementary electricity, physics and wave propagation; but he is clever enough not to shoot himself in the foot - twice.

Here is an accounting of what happened at the "last" test he took part in, and I rather imagine he will NEVER get involved in anything like that again.

Publicly failing a real test would be the end of him. Failure would be proof positive that he had swindled everyone that he's ever sold an LRL/MFD device to in the past 30 years, and a class action suit could bankrupt him or even result in jail time.

No. He is not likely to ever take part in anything that resembles a fair test to validate his current advertising and claims (real or implied).

I particularly liked the part about the orangutan and the glue-gun.

Yeah, I know. I thought that was classic.
