[David3]

David3, I have taken a couple of shots at this kind of calculation in the past, I think I have some links in my blog posts. Have a look through these and see what you think, I'd welcome feedback.

These are articles, not peer-reviewed studies.

I will find the peer-reviewed studies alluded to in the articles, and post links.

Where is your scientific rigor?

And no, no scientific rigor, my posts are opinion pieces. But I have spent a lot of time researching the issue.

Opinions without well-substantiated facts just generate myth. If you have sources and calculations, please present them.

OK, so you don't read anything, just preferring to offer your own vexatious opinion. I shall ignore you henceforth.
