I searched RC for quite some time, I could find references to it, that's about it.

Sorry, Walter

This is the dreaded S-15 Report, it's come under a ton of criticism etc. The comparison is funded and the comparison is interpreted by the makers of the two favored salts.

Very few people take this report as gospel. Stick with what works and you'll do fine.

It's not the S-15, there was a salt comparison. I remember it well from RAMR. I shall search my memory.

Yes, Craig Bingman of course...

Good question. You should post a message there and ask. So far, no data has been seen. There was talk about closure there (even if no tests were performed and no results are ever produced).

WOW what an eye opener, that sure supports the S15 report. I'd like to see more links if anyone has them.
