<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnny54321, post: 496742, member: 13342&quot;]I totally agree with you here Mike. These paragraphs sum up exactly what I was thinking when I first read this. Like I mentioned before, the human element is also very important. I think that both working together can make for an effective team; especially when dealing with 5-6 figure coins. I know there are lots of experts out there, but even they make mistakes. If I&#039;m going to pay 20 grand for a coin(and no, I&#039;m not that rich. but some are.), and had the option of a proven effective computer analization of the metalic composition to the microscopic level IN ADDITION to several experts examining the coin before giving the coin it&#039;s grade/problem status; I would feel more comfortable spending that kind of money. This could give me an integrated solution that was more representative of the product, and also help bring more consistency.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s an example related to my job as an avionics engineer. For years in avionics the Inertial Navigation System was relied upon as the primary navigation source(in addition to Radio Nav when it was available). The INS worked well, but it tends to drift after a certain amount of flight time and loses accuracy. More recently, GPS has been introduced into the equation. Now the GPS is extremely accurate, but works even better when integrated with the INS. It also has the ability to &quot;realign&quot; the INS when it begins to drift. Both of them used together produces a nav solution that is better than either one was separate. If &quot;humans&quot; are the INS, and &quot;computers&quot; are the GPS in my analogy. I could see this possibly working someday. You guys might think I have a weird metaphor, but it works for me...<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Anyways, don&#039;t let go of your dream Mike!!!</p><p><br /></p><p>John[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
