Good point, Russ. Evodates are the only type of "Lab testing" that is never done "blind". The labs are always told what results are desired. The very set-up reeks of dishonesty.

And the excuse isn't even close to plausible. "The equipment is so super-sensitive and expensive it might get broken if we didn't know what results to expect". Total bunk! Other labs have super sensitive equipment which is very expensive, yet they operate honestly in this respect.

What's more, they're saying, in effect, that they're risking the equipment on a regular basis: a simple typo on a submission form, or misplacement of a decimal point would destroy it, right? And humans do make such mistakes all the time. There are lots of other errors involved "in collecting samples" which lead to "erroneous results", and they also happen all the time. How many evodate-generating machines have been destroyed over the years?

Evodates amount to evolutionists saying "trust us". We've seen their integrity fail enough times that there is no basis whatsoever upon which to build such faith. The most appropriate response to such a request is an healthy guffaw.
