	As a scientist who is willing to adjust my models on the basis
of real data, could you please provide more information. In particular:
	1) What are these phenomena not explained by the std model?
	2) What evidence is there for microtubules in teeth?
	3) What evidence relates microtubular flow to enamel formation?

>My question exactly.  Who are you going to believe?

	I believe the evidence, I have seen none as yet.

	References please! Also a summary of the results would be nice.
