Regarding your concern someone who has inflated reps might be given unearned credence in regards to knowing laser technology, if any one of us says something a bit off, or wrong, even our friends here will immediately set it strait, being wrong in this forum is exposed very quickly. That's one of the reasons I sometimes come back and qualify my posts more, refine them more, because if I don't, the wet noodle is surely to come out and slap me.
Excellent point--very true--LPF information credibility and all that rot at stake.
Not much slips by unnoticed.
