I work in the research (major university) and I'll let you all in on a little secret:

It's not so much the data, as it is the presentation.

Kinda' like an Obamagraph.

I can easily believe that a paper filter is more effective for very small particles. But there is a minimum size where it doesn't matter.

And, if I opened up my filter and found more than 2 grams of crap, I'd be concerned. One and a half pounds?

I don't do Baja...
