Well I have followed this thread with amazement at the level of knowledge known about brake fluid. Some guys have a good engineering knowledge and can put across a point convincingly and with a scientific and reasoned proof. Some others would be better preparing a large bird for thanksgiving!!

I decided to have a look on the internet and found this page which refers to a NHTSA study on the subject.
