2015

[Above (enlarge): Arizona radiocarbon dating laboratory staff and Rochester radiocarbon dating laboratory's Prof. Harry Gove (second from right) around the AMS control console computer terminal[2], just before or after it had, on 6 May 1988 displayed the alleged hacker's bogus radiocarbon age of the Shroud, "640 years"[3], which was then calibrated to "1350 AD"[4]. The alleged hacker, Timothy W. Linick, is the one in a black shirt standing most prominently in the fore-ground[5]. This is from my post of 31-Mar-15. Other posts where I used that photo were: 05Jul14, 13Aug14, 02Dece14, 31Mar15, 27Apr15, 27Aug15, 19Jan16. This latter post was the first in which it occurred to me that it was "presumably significant" that "The alleged leaker and hacker, Timothy W. Linick, is in the black shirt, most prominently in the foreground" but I did not say why. 22Feb16 This latter post was the first in which I stated what was significant about "Linick ... standing ... most prominently in the foreground" was that it showed that Linick was in charge of the AMS dating process of the Shroud at Arizona laboratory:

"That Linick is standing in front of his laboratory leaders and colleagues in the historic group photograph ... of the dating of the Shroud at Arizona laboratory, can only be plausibly explained by Linick having been in charge of the actual AMS computerised dating process, and those present were, by giving Linick the most prominent place in that historic photograph, acknowledging that."

29Mar16, 22Nov16. In footnote 24 of this latter post, I again stated:

"24. The 1989 Nature article in footnote 9 acknowledges that Linick wrote the paper which described in detail the AMS radiocarbon system at Arizona: Linick, T.W., et al., 1986, "Operation of the NSF-Arizona accelerator facility for radioisotope analysis and results from selected collaborative research projects," Radiocarbon, Vol. 28, No. 2a, pp.522-533. That Linick is standing in front of his laboratory leaders and colleagues in this historic group photograph ... of the first dating of the Shroud at Arizona laboratory, is evidence that Linick was in charge of the actual AMS computerised dating process at Arizona laboratory and those present were acknowledging that."
