I do not know of anyone who has successfully duplicated the process as laid
out in the UK patent application. I believe that Joe Champion has attempted
to verify the process as laid out in the patent and has not been successful.
Rather than my attempting to talk for Joe I will leave it at that and let
him answer that for himself.

I also join with Henry asking that anyone who has actually attempted to
duplicate the process to relate their experiences.
