I found this semirecent paper about CCC's concentric circles prediction for the CMB.

Is this just another piece of the debate, or is its significance enough to increase the plausibility of Penrose's model?

Thank you in advance for your answers, and please forgive my poor english :D

I was at a conference when this paper was presented. Little flaws were found if I recall . My take is that the first attempt done by Penrose to find the circles was badly done and so no one wanted to listen the next time round even though the analysis was better performed.
