Money has been raise an tests have begun by independent lab technicians.
Labs have been surveyed for the capabilities they have, including some new capabilities in DSC and Raman (like FTIR).
Staring with known primer chips doing SEM/EDX, FTIR and Raman to characterize chip composition and establish the non production of molten metal/iron from this material during DSC exposure to 400 - 600 Centigrade as well as the exotherm/endotherm character of the primer breakdown.
Next steps: move on to red/gray chips doing the same test, in characterizing composition, then showing the exotherms and reaction products.

Proposal:
Sample Preparation:
- Red/gray chip separation using optical microscopy and magnetic attraction to assist in isolation of particles of interest.
- Optical images of collected particulates as collected at appropriate magnifications to record condition as collected.
Sample Analysis:
- SEM/EDX with elemental quantification of red/gray chips, both red and gray layers.
- FTIR analysis of organic components of red/gray chips, both red and gray layers.
- ESCA small spot technique with argon ion sputter for depth profiling to definitively establish the presence of elemental aluminum within the red layer of the red/gray chips. Scans of gray layer also to be taken to add to information base.
- DSC analysis of red/gray chips focusing on exothermic/endothermic reactions near 400 degrees C. Some chips to be scanned in inert atmosphere and some in air or oxygen containing gas stream.
- SEM/EDX with elemental quantification of residual products of DSC analysis of red/gray chips.
- Optical images of reaction products after DSC experiments.
Why are they doing this? This has nothing to do with what they said they were going to do:

Mark Basile said:Purpose: to see if the following study can be replicated.
Repeatable experiments is fundamental to the scientific method.
Any updates on when they plan to start? They've had the money for a while. The only thing I've seen is the plan of what to do with the money they don't spend (give it to Gage).
Does anyone actually think they will do the study as planed?
Is it a prerequisite for asking about the study?Yes I do.
Are you a stakeholder in the research?
Is it a prerequisite for asking about the study?
Why have they started by wasting money on tests that have nothing to do with the original study? Do they have tons of money to burn?
"Hey, if the "Stakeholders" don't hold their feet to the fire, just like with the earlier flawed study byHarritMillette..."
Fixed that for ya.
Fixed that for ya.
Did the test any of the chips they found not to be "thermetic"? It would appear not because the copied the "paint chip" data out of a book.Are you saying there are no flaws with the Harris study? Tell me, what sample size should they have used? Did they use any known thermite samples for comparison?

MarkBasile.org Fundraiser Seeking $10,000
In this interview: http://nanothermite911.blogspot.com/2013/08/911-truth-teleconference-interview-with.html Mark Basile states that even though the goal was set at $5,000, that he could more ideally use $10,000. The amount raised thus far is $6002. Please make any sized donation you can so this important work is done as thoroughly as possible.
They need the extra money to do the stupid tests they started that have nothing to do with the original study.
This "new" plea for money is based on an interview that is almost a year old.
It's more like,Maybe they had their chips tested and were told they are paint ? Of course the lab was paid off by the NWO to falsify the results hence needing to go to another lab and another 5k.
LMFAO let the suckers donate their cash.

Does anyone really believe this is not a scam run by ANETA? They ran a fake "debate challenge" then donated the money back to themselves.
Has anyone actually seen any of this money? Has anyone actually been able to contact these guys (Not Mark, I doubt he's actually involved in this scam)?
What strong support? They really haven't shown evidence that they collected anything.You actually believe this is nothing more than a cash cow?
When donations were few it was called "lack of support".
When donations reflect strong support, you fail to acknowledge it for the endorsement it represents and instead accuse organizers of scamming the unsuspecting.
You missed the update:By the way, isn't this a New Investigation™? Why aren't AE911T even mildly interested in funding it?
Never mind, that question was rhetorical. AE911T's purpose is more like this:

Care to comment on why they would spend the limited resources the way the have reported? It has nothing to do with the original proposal.Absolutely right. 9/11 bedunkers are obsessed with truther fundraising.
Few/slow donations = "pathetic", "lack of support", "fringe cause"
Increased/fast donations = "gullible truthers", "Dicky Gage's vacation fund", "SCAM!!1!"
That's the level of "analysis" we find here.![]()

I'm just questioning why they would spend money on something that clearly has nothing to do with why the money was raised. Is that wrong?Care to comment why it's any of your business?

Odd you wouldn't wonder the samething. Is it just because you trust them without question?
What are they doing that has nothing to do with their original purpose? What do you think they should be doing? I think your confusion probably stems from a lack of knowledge on the stated research goals.

You could actually start getting suspicious of their motives.
I'm thinking it's more of a belief on the part of the supporters.Maybe it's a conspiracy!
Sure, you're just unable to explain what those quotes mean.
Right. And when it's not a "scam", it's a "failure".
