all I can really do is compare published and peer-reviewed studies ... The
published figures of 10 million tons mass vs. 4 million tons would seem to
imply about a 2:1 ratio.

Mike, can you aim us at your "published and peer-reviewed studies"? I don't
doubt you; I just love to document these things for other discussions on
other lists. Thanks...
