And wrote about this to the list 4 (four) times. Are my messages get lost?? You can see the results on www.math.purdue.edu/~eremenko/accuracy.html Look at these error distributions. If you do not want to look at other results out of principle, look at White's results plotted. And then tell us: on your opinion, does this plot confirm that "one can measure a distance with 0'2 accuracy, reliably".
