Eddie's alert in the garden

[Gadfly1.3]

there has to be a physical source present for any alert although it may not be visible to the naked eye...the point is taht after 3 months all molecules would have dissipated imo

You have any cites/scientific knowledge in the area we should know about Davel?  Or is that simply speculative?

The moment it went into an official document, cited below.

How can it be official if it's translated from French?

[Gadfly1.3]

Absolutely no idea what you are talking about Misty.

But returning to the main theme:

Does anyone have any thoughts as to why Eddie, the cadaver dog, alerted in the garden of G5A (McCann apartment)?

He did not alert in any other garden searched, for the record.

I certainly have scientific knowledge in the area..its basic chemistry

I didn't realise that O level chemistry covered cadaver scents - it certainly didn't in my day.

Ok, let us test Davel.  This is the EASIEST question on an A-level Chemistry paper. (Taken by 17/18 year olds).  Have a go at it and prove your credentials.  I'll give you the answer soon.

some of us went beyond O level...

I would be looking at the number of molecules deposited by contact with a cadaver...then the rate of dilution by rain and evaporation by heat...then there is degradation in the soil..and estimating what would be left after 3 months.

the only study I have seen suggests that cadaver scent can last up to 12 months in a CLOSED building... I can't see how it could last 3 months in the open with dilution by wind and rain...what do you think

[ferryman]

So to sum up so far:

Pegasus and Jassi consider that either a cadaver or something that has come in contact with a cadaver could have been the cause of Eddie's alert.  Davel is sceptical that cadaverine can survive in the open, but has no cite.  And Shining repeats Gerry McCann's argument that we need to ask the dogs.

My view is cadaver dogs, alert to human cadavers an overwhelming percentage of the time -- but clearly, the dogs are simply a guide to helping the PJ and SY understand what went on both at 5A, but also in some of the dig sights of 2014.

The best approach is to forget cadaver/cadaverine (incidentally separate and distinct scents) and (at least in respect of PdL) foucus exclusively on the handler.

Not for nothing did Harrison (then representing an arm of the British police) distance himself entirely from inspections in places Madeleine never lived in or went near, inspections he had nothing to do with, including that (unlike other searches) he did not recommend them ....

I said basic chemistrty...its been neraly 50 yrs since I took Alevel but it looks like the answer is A..all the others have a degree of isometry

[Gadfly1.3]

A is incorrect.  But what was your logic?

Yep, probably someone was taken short and popped in there for a quick pee.

I have answered the question above......maths was my forte

6 25 64 81 32...whats the next number...i solved this when i was 15....havent met anyone else who has solved it

If it helps davel, look up on google trans-/cis-, or Stereoisomerism in the form of Geometrical Isomerism, the latter of which some exam boards do not allow reference to anymore.

and a bit more if it helps..

trans- is now called the E- form, and cis- is  Z- form.

stephen....I took a level almost 50 yrs ago...have a look at my number sequence...that's raw intelligence and reasoning power
