RS> you were doing the SAME thing, mindlessly binning useful evidence
RS> which was all that was available and proclaiming that there was
RS> just one valid way to consider the issue being considered, using
RS> some silly idea about the only valid way to test possibilitys.

RS> Soorree, the real world aint like that Paul, at times you have
RS> to use the evidence thats less than ideal, coz its all you've
RS> fucking got. And whatever you proclaim, its quite feasible to
RS> get useful information from the less than ideal evidence.

RS> That is possible right now on the question of the quality of your line.
RS> We have the Courier/Courier stats when your line was called by Russ from
RS> FNQ from that immaculate line. We have the comparison with the data on the
RS> other calls he made to a Courier, and can deduce some useful information
RS> on the state of your line compared with say the state of Bills line.

RS> You can also check the Courier/Courier stats by
RS> making sure they do correlate with CPS figures so
RS> there cant be anything do drastic wrong with them.

PE> And what do the Courier/M34F stats on the CPS figures say, Rod?

No one is saying that ONLY the cps figures are relevant dorko.
There is an obvious discrepancy with the Courier/non Courier
stats, the gross shift of around 6db in the whole curve.

RS> You can proclaim that the one valid way to measure lines is to hire
RS> test equipment and use it on the lines being looked at if you like,
RS> pity the real world is that that that AINT the only way. Tho it would
RS> certainly be nice to do that if the cost wasnt a consideration.

PE> I didn't say that.

You did basically, proclaiming that the USR/USR stats are completely
useless and of no value whatever. Which essentially means that that
other approach with specialised test equipment is the only thing you
think is a viable way to measure a specific line.

PE> In fact, the M34F may well be a way of telling
PE> line quality, that has yet to be determined.

Which essentially means that you are currently proclaiming that
there aint no way to characterise a line except test equipment.

RS> I've binned the rest of your massive brain fart on 0100, pathetic.

And I've binned your even more pathetic raving on thats even worse.
