>>Funny, the highest value reported was COC...what are the others doing in there, anyway? Anybody care to comment?<<

Sure ... Bateman inserted some non-CoC samples that were taken by IPM ...

This proves the samples taken by IPM were NOT tampered with as the results are within the ranges of the samples that are CoC.

Taking a truly random sample for statistical analysis within a desired coefficient of error ... requires a much smaller number of samples than you might imagine.

If the 8 samples were taken on a random basis from what may have been 100 samples (my number!) ... 8 samples is all you need to get a true evaluation.
