CMBR Relic neutrinos with mass of O (eV) are HDM (relativistic at decoupling). Due to free streaming, LSS formation is top-down, which is not the case. Free streaming HDM suppresses power spectrum at small wave lengths. Global fits of CMBR, SDSS Galaxies, SN Ia, Cluster Abundance, Weak Lensing, and Lyman Alpha Forest data give ∑ m < 0.4 ~ 1.0 eV Weak Gravitational Lensing, yet to be improved Lyman- Alpha Experiment, very difficult. If we find ∑ m < 8 x eV, the mass hierarchy can be resolved to be NORMAL! j j Better than β β, β, …... j j *
