You labeled all “conventionalists” with distortions. That is an ad

Yes, I snipped it for brevity, anyone can go find the original post.
It’s fair to ask what Pressac’s source is. It’s not fair to accuse him
of fabrication if you can’t demonstrate it.

Actually, I seem to be having some difficulty with reading comprehension
in the above paragraph. It sounded like Mr. Ehrlich was saying that
Pressac was “making it up.” Now it sounds as if he is saying that
Pressac made a reasoned inference based upon evidence. He seems to want
to make a distinction between fabrication and “making
it up as he [Pressac] goes along.” It seems to me that this is an
exercise in a mental activity that is unlikely to conceive progeny.
If Mr. Ehrlich’s claim is now that Pressac made an inference based upon
“documentary/physical/factual elements,” I would say that “making it up as he
goes along” is a rather immoderate characterization.

Mr. Ehrlich has fallen a long way when all he has left is a second-rate
explanation of “Ausrottung.” Perhaps, he ought to look at some of the
excellent work done on this word, some by native German speakers, on
this very newsgroup.

Why do deniers always repeat the same arguments like a broken record?

Actually, Mr. Ehrlich may have a point here. It may be that other
sources have made an error here. If Peters is correct, ERCO is not
silica gel _in its conventional form_. That means that it is either
silica gel in a different form or not silica gel.

Actually, this may be an interesting lead.

I’ve been away for awhile due to some recent discoveries not of this
world.

Yes, I understand that, but that means that you agree with Mr. Ehrlich’s
point. All of our sources up till now have identified ERCO as silica
gel.

You may have missed some of the history of this discussion. Most of us
(Mr. Van Alstein, Dr. Keren, Mr. Mazal and me) have been under the
impression that ERCO was silica gel (I believe Pressac asserts this.).
Mr. Ehrlich has shown that we were probably wrong.

What was Rudolf’s method of detection and how did he calibrate it?
Why didn’t he discriminate against Prussian blue? Does he have an
explanation for its presence?

Not true, other buildings selected at random were not found to have
cyanide traces. This report has been debunked.

The Crackow team has demonstrated that HCN was present in the homicidal
gas chambers above background levels. Deniers have no explanation for the
presence of HCN in a facility built after the typhoid epidemic.

If the barracks in which they measured no HCN were never fumigated, why did
they measure a higher level in the homicidal gas chambers?

If the barracks were fumigated, why did they measure a higher level in the
homicidal gas chambers?

It should be noted that the researchers used a calibrated method and that
they discriminated against Prussian blue whose origin is not clear.
Leuchter and Rudolf did not do so.

Indeed! And is it the same Rudolf that misled the Fresenius
Institute by implying that the samples he needed were related to work at
the Max Planck institute by using Institute notepaper? Is this the same
Rudolf who the Max Planck Institute has denied supporting in such
research?
