Check out the previous post... I too have given up on Orionblamblam. Nothing moves him. He is willfully ignorant.

Actual he is into the miraculous without even knowing it.

I checked with two phyical chemists about blamblam's claim about capillary action and they both told me he doesn't know what he is talking about. To imagine that a dye or stain would, by capillary action, move from one outer surface edge to the other extreme surface edge and not stain along the way is preposterous; certainly not when a thread is made up of 70 to 120 twisted fibers with many various paths of different separation. In many places there would be closed pockets and funnels. Furthermore, the stain would not make it to the crowns but settle in regions between two fibers. Capillary action will emphatically not work, and as there is none in evidence, it further strengthens the argument that the two superficial images could not have been produced by a colorant such as paint, dye, or stain.
