Care to put some meat on your bald-faced assertion that ETD systems are particularly good at identifying "something dangerous"? In the past month, how many swabs were positive, and how many of the positive swabs led to the discovery of "something dangerous"?

I'd be flabbergasted if the ratio is better than 1000 to 1.

But please respond with a ratio, and not another assertion.
