For Bill -- One Reasonable Citation

Dear Bill,

As you know, it is never "ONE" experiment that will change the mind of
an engineer. He must review the objective facts concerning the dynamic
behavior of the eye -- to make HIS CHOICE or JUDGMENT. Science is
always about that issue. But, here is my citation (analytical) for
Soon's PREVENTIVE curve.

Bill> For now,Otis, give me one reasonable citation to support Soon's
work.
Although my inclination is to believe what you say, my scientific
roots
tell me that inclination is insufficient. A peer reviewed citation is
necessary.

Otis> My papers on the dynamic eye were "peer reviewed". After
acceptance I delivered them and they were published. The key issue is
the question, "who are my peers"? Since the issue of the natural
eye's dynamic behavior is engineering/science, clearly my peers are
not medical people.

Otis> Further you ask for the "loaded" question, "on reasonable
citation." Here is the start of that process:

I think a engineer/scientist (at 20/60, and -1 diopters) could
understand this paper. Futher, he MIGHT be interested in being part
of a scientific/preventive process under HIS CONTROL.

Enjoy,
