Lines: 24 From: gillies@mit-eddie.UUCP 1: There is evidence that alot of the testing that CU claims to have done, is never done. What evidence? Your anonymous source? That isn't evidence. 2: Their articles often have misleading pictures, such as a picture of a "panel of experts". Are we talking about the same magazine? I have read Consumers Reports for 10 years and they have NEVER shown a picture of a panel of experts. Do you read it? Is it possible you have confused CU with one of the look-alikes, like consumer digest? (The look-alikes are terrible). This statement of yours is so obviously wrong that it casts a LOT of doubt on anything else you and your informant say. -- spoken: mark weiser UUCP: {seismo,allegra,brl-bmd}!umcp-cs!mark CSNet: mark@umcp-cs ARPA: mark.umcp-cs@UDel-Relay
