Re: SJTP: Minutes from 08-May meeting





Mike,

Thanks for raising the issue and seeing it through. I'll

trust that if you and your peers are satisfied, then I
should be.

Thanks,
Ben

Although I still do not believe anyone has proven that the measurement can be done as described in FOTP 203, there is a high enough degree of confidence from our calculations and theoretical expectations that there should be no issue.
