Back to science... I like that!

I have emailed ML and gotten his permission to move all pertinent info on this experiment onto a new thread. Is everyone else ok with that? I feel it would be a lot easier (and shorter) if we keep things simple on that thread with only info relevant to the experiment. Then anyone who is interested in the project won't have to sift through a thesis paper to find out what is going on, and those who are not interested can simply skip over the thread.
Thanks!
