Rothwell:  "I am sorry to keep harping on this, but it is a prime example of"

  One more issue.
 
  Rothwell's ad hominem are not, and have never been,
a substitute for his failure to calibrate,
his failure to maintain a pressure head,
and his failure to use anything close to an adequate sampling rate.

  In the case at issue, Rothwell reported a sampling rate
of only 2 to 4 times per day!!!

 This implies that Rothwell has no credibility on this matter, either.

 It cannot be stressed enough:
  Real experimentalists use sampling rates closer to 1 Hertz
(sometimes more, sometimes less, but not 2 times per day),
and they use many controls -- including joule controls.
