I think we need to be realistic about the issue of VM trials and the contents of the Charles Stanley paper.
We know the paper is innacurate in places, so any quotes in it are not exactly 'evidence' for anything.
There is no 'smoking' gun for VM trials either. For example, our friend in Weston-Super-Mare in this thread :-
http://bbs.adslguide.org.uk/showflat...fpart=all&vc=1
All nicely detailed and timestamped. But nothing like it can be found for VM.
Do I think VM have run trials? Yes.
Is there any evidence yet? No.
People who 'know' about trials in Scotland or for other ex NTL users; post some verifiable evidence please.
