I do plan to join CoCoRaHS and report the rain data. I also plan to put the Davis data on which ever web sites I decide on after getting it setup and tested.
OK, so let's try a couple of examples:
1. Davis at 5', CoCoRahs at 2'.
A. Always different measurements. (Davis always less, but by differing percentages).
What do you conclude? What do you report?
B. Sometimes Davis is more, sometimes CoCoRahs is more. What do you conclude? Report?

Segal's law is an adage that states:
"A man with a watch knows what time it is. A man with two watches is never sure."[1]
The mood of the saying is ironical. While at a surface level it appears to be advocating the simplicity and self-consistency obtained by relying on information from only a single source, the underlying message is to gently question and make fun of such apparent certainty – a man with one watch can't really be sure he knows the right time, he merely has no way to identify error or uncertainty.I'm actually looking forward to your experiment. The results (whatever they are) will be interesting.
