Well, It would appear to be that way , but there is no way at all to know
how many revolutions the drive shaft is turning and thus measure the ratio.

To be able to determine the ratio without disassembling the diff, you have
to set up a controlled situation.  That is what I was describing. (Apples
and oranges)

Actually what he describes is *exactly* the same - the wheel on dry 
pavement does
not turn at all - all the torque goes to the wheel on the ice that 
offers no resistance.
