A successful comparison is made with previously published results of the equivalent quantities measured in the electrostatic turbulence at the edge of a fusion plasma. This result re-establishes SOC as a potential paradigm for transport in magnetic fusion devices, overriding shortcomings pointed out in earlier works [E. Spada, et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 3032 (2001); V. Antoni, et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 045001 (2001)].4 pages, 4 figuresStatistical MechanicsPlasma Physicstext
