Mulder & Tolman,
I have sent Dupont an email pointing out the possible infringement of their patent by ATSC, hope it does'nt cause any trouble

We've done a double-blind test where the equipment was only successful in discovering in 20 percent of the cases, when just a random choice would give you 25 percent -- so there's no statistical significance to having the equipment," Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva told CNN
UPDATE******
The ATSC website has now been offline for a few weeks now. Hope we haven't caused Mr Jim any problems, is it too much to hope for that he has stopped selling his scam equipment.

Somehow I hear the voice of Arnie in my head saying "I'll be back!". I think only a decent sentence for fraud is likely to make the voice go away completely.
On the other hand, looking on the bright side, maybe a surviving relative of someone who actually tried to use the PoS for mine clearance caught up with him.
just a quick post to get started
"Dubious Dick" I would very much like to get in touch with you for a story I'm working on about use of these devices in Baghdad. Rod Nordland, NY Times, Baghdad bureau, +964-7901-918448 rod.nordland@nytimes.com
Thanks
Great news guys. Rod Nordland of the NYT has done an expose on the ADE sold to Iraq. When you see the numbers he has come up with on sales values you will be shocked. Anyway. The big media breakthrough I've been promising the bastrads who sell these devices, and we won't be stopping there! Look out Jim, Gary et al!
Everyone go to this link and do comments to try to raise the profile of the story if you can, please. Also link to on blogs if you have one please. Again for higher search profile. Thanks if you can.
Cheers, DD

You cannae kid a kidder kiddo!
One wonders how big a backhander the Iraqi General is getting for his part in the scam?
Nice to see Hal Bidlack and the JREF getting some credit here after all the work DD has done on this.
.
A great article.
Well done Dick, JREF and everyone else who has helped to expose these scammers. It's a really good example of how important and positive skepticism can be and how the skeptics can actually change things and save lives.
And thanks Rod for writing the article.

I see the usually very vocal, Mr Jim of ATSC did not return any calls what a surprise. Full credit to DD for giving Rod the background. I know that this article is already causing the scammers a lot of problems.

If on the other hand the zealots and poor dupes who want to blow people up believe that the detectors work, well actually they achieve their purpose.
You think that no-one has tried getting past them and then realised they're bogus?
Suicide bomber wouldn't take the risk?
