You miss my point.  The question is not to challenge the findings or the
work that has done, but to fill in the part of the analysis that was mine
to do.

I sent what I thought was a decent mirror.  That was based on my
undocumented testing.  Dale has found a number of flaws using a very
precise testing method.  Yet most of the folks that I know use Rochi or
Foucault.  I need to document what I saw so that the greater question can
be debated.  How can these mirrors be brought into existance.

I see a decent mirror, Dale found a flawed one that can't be argued.  What
I am doing that hides those flaws or creates them can be argued.  That is
the part of the analysis I have to do here with my tools.

Questions were raised about what the view through the scope looked like. 
I have a Meade eyepiece camera, I will post raw shots.

The work is not done until we have wrung all the data out that we can. 
This science folks, we are after answers.
