TO WHOM WHO CONCERN
Thank you for the opportunity to respond to your concerns. The LifeGuards that are in use in China and elsewhere are performing their mission and helped save lives. This is the best reason to ignore a rumor of fraud from an anonymous source. If the critic of our technology is afraid to put his name on the Biggest Fraud document then we question his reasons for sending this out. Our best guess is that it was sent by one of our competitors and trying to commit the biggest fraud. We normally respond to the Sandia report and the other trash on the internet with the following.
• The detector tested was not our current production model – it was a prototype
• Sandia data shows that the detector did localize the target; but did not pin point
o LifeGuard detection showed a high positive correlation to the target when the detections are analyzed using standard statistical methods
• Sandia used a magician/skeptic (James Randi) to design the pin-point test instead of using sound scientific methods such as Receiver Operator Characteristics (ROC)
• Sandia had no expertise in LifeGuard operational principles. The Sandia expert assigned to the evaluation was a video technician not a scientist without any ultra low frequency electric field experience.
o The Sandia technician failed to understand the detection circuit oscillations as being part of the Lifeguards local oscillating circuit within the radio detection principles
• The test is 8 years old and the technology has moved forward
• There is now a long history of sales and other independent test report showing the Sandia Reports to be invalid and erroneous.
All of the negative internet comments stem from the same source, a brief and defective test of a prototype LifeGuard and an erroneous physical tear down of an instrument that were conducted eight years ago by the Sandia National Laboratory in New Mexico.
Sandia canceled a briefing from our Chief Scientist (a Cornell University PhD physicist) about our technology. Instead they consulted with a skeptic debunker of the paranormal – James Randi, who did not even graduate from high school. The LifeGuard that was tested was a prototype and never went into production, the test procedures violated the LifeGuard’s operating instructions, the lab’s mathematical analysis was incorrect and the lab did not report the results of a second test in which the LifeGuard performed flawlessly.
1. Sandia's claim, that the LifeGuard cannot work, is contradicted by:
LAW Engineering Report, 1998
Sense-Off 98 Report, 1998 (TEAMS report for USMC)
Zeebrugge Port Report, 1999
2 – Center for National Response reports conducted by SAIC, 2002 & 2004
State of Georgia Public Safety Center, Test Report, 2006
Plus numerous tests done by governments in Asia (These tests were not shared with DKL, but following the tests, units were purchased and then re-ordered)
2. We do not expect Sandia to admit its erroneous findings.
The second Sandia report or tear down report of a LifeGuard argues that it cannot work, since LifeGuard does not work like a radio. The person doing this report was not qualified to do it, as he was an electrical engineer without an advanced degree. He is not a physicist and has little understanding about the science. A prime example is that he used the wrong method to determine the type of plastic used in LifeGuard that is well known, which resulted in his reporting the wrong type of plastic in his report. The correct test for the type of plastic is well known by a qualified analyst. Some elements that Sandia just got wrong or failed to grasp include:
• Sandia’s analysis of the detection circuit failed to identify the Time Constant of circuit or to quantify the characteristics of the capacitive elements.
• Sandia failed to grasp or acknowledge the basic physics principles of induced polarization charges.
• Sandia failed to grasp the dielectric nature of a living human when reacting to an ultra low frequency field and the influences on electric field gradients
With this report, Sandia showed a total disregard for DKL's proprietary information. Sandia posted some company trade secrets and proprietary information on the Internet. The good news for DKL was that the second report was filled with so many errors it did not assist anyone in their attempt to reverse engineer LifeGuard.
Sandia is managed by the Lockheed Martin Corp., which has developed and licensed a wide variety of sensor systems that compete directly with the DKL LifeGuard.
Dr. Keith Conover has never tested, been trained or used LifeGuard. He simply has parroted the Sandia reports and his mentor Randi. He is a medical doctor and has no degree in engineering or physics. He is not qualified to make any comments about the science behind the LifeGuard. He is an Associate Professor in the medical school.

有关人士：
感谢有机会回答你们的关注。在中国和其它地方使用的LifeGuards正在履行它们的使命，帮助拯救生命。这是我们不理睬一个来自匿名消息源的欺骗的谣言的最好理由。如果批评我们技术的人害怕把他的名字放在最大欺骗的档案中，那么我们要问他发布这个谣言的理由。我们最好的猜测是这是由我们的一个竞争对手发出的，它企图犯下一个最大的欺诈案。对桑蒂亚(Sandia )的报告和因特网上其它无聊的评论，我们正常地回答如下：
被测的探测器不是我们当前生产的型号----它是一个原型（过时）；
桑蒂亚(Sandia)的数据表明探测器可以确定目标在一个区域内；但是没有精确的定位。
当探测用标准的统计方法分析时，LifeGuard 探测表明了和目标的高度正相关。
桑蒂亚(Sandia) 用了一个变戏法的人/怀疑论者(James Randi)来设计定位试验，并没有用象接受器算子特征（Receiver Operator Characteristics: ROC）一样的可靠的科学方法。
桑蒂亚(Sandia)没有LifeGuard 操作原理的专门知识。桑蒂亚(Sandia)安排的评估专家只是一个录象技师而不是一个科学家，他没有超低频电场经验。
桑蒂亚(Sandia)的技术员没有弄懂探测电路振荡是LifeGuard局部振荡电路的作用，这未超出无线电探测原理；
这个试验已经8年了，而技术已经前进了许多；
我们有很长的销售历史和其它的独立的测试报告证明桑蒂亚(Sandia)报告是无效的和错误的。
所有负面的因特网评论来自于同一个消息源。这些负面评论由在新墨西哥洲的桑蒂亚国家实验室八年以前进行的LifeGuard原型的一个简短的和有缺陷的测试和对仪器错误的物理拆卸引发的。
桑蒂亚(Sandia)删去了我们的首席科学家（获康乃尔大学博士学位的物理学家）关于我们的技术的情况介绍。代之，咨询一个怀疑论的超自然现象的揭示者----James Randi,他甚至没有从高中毕业。被测试的LifeGuard是一个原型，从未进入生产过程，测试步骤也违反了LifeGuard的操作指南，实验室的数学分析不准确，并且实验室没有报告第二次试验的结果，在这次试验里所用的LifeGuard完美无暇地完成了任务。
1、桑蒂亚(Sandia)的关于LifeGuard的不能起作用的声称，和下列事实相矛盾：
1998 LAW的工程报告；
感觉--关闭(Sense-off)98报告，1998（TEAMS向美国海军陆战队）；
泽布勒赫港口测试报告，1999；
由SAIC分别在2002和2004进行的国家响应中心的两个报告；
2006年，乔治亚州公共安全中心的测试报告；
加上由亚洲国家政府进行的测试（这些测试结果没有和DKL分享，但在这些测试之后，有许多设备被购买和重新订货）。
2、我们不期望桑蒂亚(Sandia)承认它的错误结论。
桑蒂亚(Sandia)的第二个报告或关于LifeGuard的拆卸报告认为它不起作用，因为它不象一个电台那样工作。做这个报告的人没有资质，因为他是没有高级学位的电器工程师。他不是物理学家，对科学理解很少。主要的例子是他使用了一种错误方法来确定用在LifeGuard中一种人们熟知的塑料的种类，这种错误方法导致了在报告中他给出了这种塑料的错误类型。对这种塑料的类型的正确测试，具备资质的分析家是熟知的。
桑蒂亚(Sandia)弄错了或没有掌握的要素包括：
桑蒂亚(Sandia)探测电路的分析没能辨识出电路的时间常数和量化电容性元件的特征；
桑蒂亚(Sandia)未能掌握或承认感应极化电荷的基本物理学原理；
桑蒂亚(Sandia)未能掌握活着的人体对超低频电场的反应和对电场梯度的影响的非传导性特性；
以该报告，桑蒂亚(Sandia)表明对DKL专利信息的完全不理会。在因特网上，桑蒂亚(Sandia)张贴了一些公司交易秘密和专有信息。对DKL, 好消息是这第二个报告充满了如此多的错误，以致它不能帮助那些企图改变Life Guard工程师看法的任何人。
桑蒂亚(Sandia)由洛克希德•马丁公司管理，它开发和批准了一大类直接和DKL LifeGuard竞争的传感器系统。
基思•康喏沃(Keith Conover)博士从没测试过,被培训和使用过LifeGuard。他简单地机械地模仿了桑蒂亚(Sandia)报告和他的导师Randi。他是一个医学博士，没有工程或物理学的学位。他没有资格对支持LifeGuard的科学做出任何评论。他是一个医学院的副教授。
谨致问候
