Also, Bio-MolecularTony has proposed a very similar thread, so I'll only be promoting one. Would you prefer to have Tony reply to your opening post, or would you rather use your content here to reply to his? If you have no preference then I'll just promote the one that is more specific and scientific.

Thank you for pointing out the errors. English is not my first language, so errors are bound to creep in.
Firefox and Chrome both have built-in spellcheckers, and Google Toolbar includes one for Internet explorer.
The only proposed thread by Tony I could find is this one:
http://EvC Forum: (ID) Grading the Intellect from the (non-natural) Design -->EvC Forum: (ID) Grading the Intellect from the (non-natural) Design
Assuming this is the thread you are referring to, I don't see any resemblance really. Please point me to the thread you are referring to, and I will check it out to see if it brings up the same issue.
You're both suggesting ways in which design can be measured. Tony proposes using human design capabilities as the measuring stick, while you solicit suggestions for a reliable and reproducible method capable of reducing designs to constituent parts. In other words, Tony's thread proposal satisfies your request.
So I can promote your thread proposal and Tony can reply to you, or we can do the reverse. Do you have a preference?

Those are good points, plus Tony hasn't responded to my request to fix spelling and grammar, so I'm going to promote your thread.
