That really seems like a bad combination. You are, it seems to me, trying to combine two opposed techniques without any real synthesis.

I think you've been voted down because your comment may be seen as unsubstantiated, as well as needlessly critical. Perhaps you'd care to elaborate?

I read Matt Simpson's description of his intended process, and I have no idea what two "opposed techniques" you are talking about. Would you mind saying a bit more?

The idea is to apply the techniques to separate domains in order to see the relative strength of each. Not a synthesis, but more of a test. I'm pretty sure that specific duties will bound me, but I'm less sure about ZM's technique. So I want to see what works.
