1.  If you were here, I would SHOW you criteria in incidents of "controlled breathing".  Every examiner knows that you can still see scoring criteria in controlled breathing in most cases...Or was that a little secret I was not supposed to let out?  Gee, I thought you guys knew it all?

WOW.  Talk about a lame response.  Wanna try again, Polycop?

You know, I've read many of the exchanges on this message board with great interest.  Not a few include claims by polygraphers that they can spot countermeasures.  Many before you, Polycop, have claimed to have outed all sorts of CM users (or at least claimed the ability to see right through them).  Yet, strangely, the evidence never quite makes it into the board -- though one exceptionally honest polygrapher did post scanned charts with characteristics he hypothesized, without evidence, were displaying indications of CM's.

I've spent enough time online (newsgroups, etc.) to know bad bluffs when I see them.  And ironically (or perhaps not) almost all of the bald falsehoods told on this board have been posted by claimed polygraphers, who have done far more to convince me of George et. al's truthfulness, integrity and knowledge than anything else.

It's time to put up or shut up, Polycop.

2.  Who cares whether or not he "did" anything during the stim test?  What effect did that have on the outcome of the test?  Remember, HE TOLD THE TRUTH to his examiner.

I would imagine the effect on the test was to prevent a false positive indication of deception.
