I notice that you have still not had the decency to post my last response to your paper on your website, while still giving your discussions with Ralph Ellis, which I instigated, top billing. Whatever your motives for this, and as a follow up to may last email to you, I strongly suggest that you take a look at the following web site, which describes with pictures some drilling work performed by the NOVA team and Denys Stocks on granite.

The final pictures seem at first sight to show drill cores with striations which are extremely similar to those on core No. 7.

I will of course be posting this communication on my own web site.
