>>So? The radiocarbon daters are here. Both are still using technology to make measurements. Is the feed produced by a radar gun an opinion?<<
Yes, they are here in the "courtroom" but they were not "there" when the offense was committed. And yes, radar gun testimony is thrown out all the time. It really is not a very high bar.

I know. The measurement error for radar guns is much higher than it is for radiocarbon testing, as I previously stated.
So you post some vague criticisms of radiocarbon dating, mainly from the 1950s, with a few as late as the early 1970s. Have anything a little more substantive, a little more recent? I hate to break this to you, but in 2006 there is exactly zero controversy over the legitimacy of radiocarbon and other radiometric dating within the scientific community. Often scientists argue over dates and methods, but never over the validity of the process.
