What a blissful answer to a simple question.

Now, can you tell me the deer are in no way spooked/alarmed by the chemical smell in the dirt scented spray. This is a compound of one or more substances mixed together as a masking scent.
Does it work? If yes, then to what degree?
I don't know why this is hard for you to grasp.
No, you did not say anything about deer.

I just have a hard time believing (carte blanche) one scientist over another (________).
I guess we ought to just have a scent-lok ..to the death...grudge match. 3 falls with a 2 hour time limit.....man with most initials behind his name gets to name the lab they duke it out at. Winner gets to take a dump in the other's car and he can choose to wear the scentlok or not .....but he has to jump in bed with his wife immediately when he gets home.

I want to know what new ideas you have..if current suits are ineffective..how would you do things differently and why would yours work where others have failed?

Your not serious.......................are you?

I am just curious if you tried to sell to ScentLok or Blocker?

Obviously..I am. You seem to have researched this topic. You've been a nay-sayer for a long time. But now it sounds as if "it can work" from your standpoint, it's just being done wrong!
Am I asking for something, that you can't provide? Are you trying to get something on the market? If you have the knowledge that you seem to hint at ..it sounds like your sitting on a million $$ Idea.

If so have you contacted them with your idea?

I think carbon is a dead man walking in the hunting world..........the market will soon change. If I am wrong and it doesn't I may get in touch with them. However it is my belief that the carbon companies will be the ones leading the charge away from carbon as more become aware of it's limitations in this field (look at this thread for example vs a couple years ago). They see the handwriting on the wall. I have no doubts that they will be just fine as they latch onto and promote the "next best thing".

The military is engaged in searching for economical ways to reactivate their chem suits so they don't have to dispose of them and have apparently had some success. You can't access the full document on the net, but here is the abstract for methods of reactivating activated carbon clothing.
I don't know about y'all, but I'm fresh out of i-propynol iodine, methylene chloride, methanol and ultrasonic transducers, and who knows what the non-aqueous solvent was that they used. Odd that clothes dryers don't appear on the list, huh. 
In the near future, chemical protective combat uniforms may be worn by Army personnel on a continuous basis. Activated carbon, the operative component, has diminished capacity for sorbing chemical agents after it has been exposed to dirt, sweat, cigarette smoke, engine exhaust, petroleum products and numerous other elements routinely present in the battlefield environment. This report summarizes the development of two nondestructive methods for cleaning and reactivating soiled chemical protective garments.
Complete reactivation was achieved when the aqueous i-propanol iodine displacement method of Manes, which removed all but pure hydrocarbon oil soils from the current overgarment Type III foam or Kynol activated carbon fiber material, was applied in nonaqueous solvent.
Subsequently, a nonaqueous solvent method that requires less handling was chosen in designing a truck-mounted system. It features non-agitative flow of methylene chloride and methanol around the chemical-protective garments suspended between ultrasonic transducers.
Both methods restore full sorptivity to the Type III foam liner. There is a one-time 10% loss of activated carbon without any loss of sorptivity. The volatile solvents are more easily removed, and can be economically recovered.

Inhaled insulin hit the market this year.........they have had this technology for a long time. It hit the market this year because someone FINALLY developed a way to make it profitable.
That's a messy world.
