Well Dave,
 
After listening to almost 20 years of such silly assertions--despite 'acid  
tests' of chamber measurements; 'acid tests' of simulations; 'acid tests' 
of  direct comparisons; 'acid tests' of live demoes (including Dayton, ARRL  
National, RCA, several IEEE societies and many others); 'acid tests' of peer 
reviewed publications; 'acid tests' of validation by researchers in over 
40  countries and over 1500 articles,'acid tests' of being a keynote at an  
international conference of engineers, mathematicians and  scientists;  and 
yes, 'acid tests' of on the air comparisons, I have  come to one  conclusion 
when it comes to fractal antenna technology and the  persiflage of 'just 
another folding method':
 
Some hams must be on acid... ;-)  
 
Trippy!
 
Go take some bicarb of soda.
 
I, on the other hand, am going to enjoy myself and execute my Part 97  
mission.
 
You should try it. It's fun.
 
73,
