I'm just being a little picky & irritable. Sorry. Part of the problem is we're not all speaking the same language or using the same standards. 3-sigma = 1 chance in 400. How many ways can we creat to say 1 chance in 400.

There is a plethora of contradictory scientific test results on the "market" today. Reminds me of lawyers being able to read anything they want into or out of something. Getting close to babble.

Aw, come on. You're complaining about the notation? It's elementary statistics: I learned about sigma in public high school, decades ago. "Standard deviation" it's also called.

The publication standards are 3-sigma and 5-sigma, as I said. I spelled out their values (approximately) just because I realized that not everyone would know or remember what they meant. In all seriousness, I worried whether I was being too pedantic in explaining them.
