For a second opinion, please get knewstru.zip from TeleGodzilla or the
FTP site.
After one has digested the information in knewstru.zip, the question of
who is accurate may arise. Consider this: Frank da Cruz was invited to
the Protocol Shootout described in knewstru.zip. The Protocol Shootout
was held in public (references in knewstru.zip). On the other hand,
neither Columbia University nor Frank da Cruz have given me the same
courtesy.
They have not answered my repeated challenges to repeat the so-called
"True-Life Benchmarks" tests in public while allowing me to supervise the
fairness and legitimacy of the testing.
