David has a fair claim. His formula, most of his metrology and methods are without any precedent whatsoever. I would just love to see someone try and show the opposite. Bill Garlick and Spurlock made public some documentation about Touchweight and defined it as we know it today, but these quantities led no one to anything but measuring up and down weight, and identifying friction. Stanwood did far more then simply formalize previously known material. To imply that Davids work is simply a thrown together artificial formalization of ideas known and used before is simply wrong, and does not reflect any particular insight into what Stanwood really is all about. Heck there are "informed" people out there on Stanwoods case who dont even see the difference between dead weight hammer measurements and SW. This isn't because they are dumb... its because they haven't really bothered to sit down and figure out what this is about. And it seems to me such effort should be a prerequisite before anyone ventures any "authoritative" comments about it. -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F.
