They did not. You misunderstand. Not to put words in Jones Beene's mouth, I think he was making two points: 1. They might have measured it any time. There were no restrictions. They told me that, and Rossi also made that clear. So this trick would not work because they had the means to see through it. 2. Those wires are macroscopic, as I said. They are large objects. You cannot fail to see one. They are not invisible or as thin as a hair. As noted in the paper, the authors lifted the controller box off the table and looked at it, and saw only the wires from the wall going into it. There is no chance they did not strip down all of the wires going into the controller to measure voltage. When you strip a wire, there is no chance you will overlook an extra wire hidden underneath it in separate insulation. Now, clearly, you do not believe this. You think the authors might have been fooled. You think they might have overlooked a wire. That is your opinion and you have a right to it, but I think you should acknowledge the authors themselves believed they looked for wires and found none. They stated this clearly. You might also acknowledge that that Jones Beene, I, and many others believe they can easily check for wires. We think wires are large objects that no one can overlook. So, let us agree to disagree about this aspect of the paper. - Jed
