That's a terminology, not a method.

I agree Smiley  It's somewhere between M & L, but more towards the 'M' side.

Is the order the same as you list it, Al, with NCF being the designation for the least clear  followed by SF, M, L, S and finally RS as the most designation for the highest level of confidence.  It seems like it, but I just wanted to make sure.
