Re: Much Ado

Thanks Steve, it's good to be back.

I know you've been doing your usual brilliant job here of attempting to bring some rationality to this normally irrational hobby.

As you know, I've been over arguing certain aspects of the subjectivst viewpoint at the AR cable asylum. It's unbelievable how much dogma and irrationality exists there at the home of the "naysayers" and "scientists". They incesantly demand proof of the yeasayers, but go absolutely appopletic when they themselves make a claim and are then asked to support it. Because most of them consider themselves "scientists", they also believe that they are immune from any scrutiny or questioning.

It never ceases to amaze me how wedded people become to their own beliefs, and how personally identified they become with those beliefs, that they can't even step back for a minute, hear what someone with an opposing view has to say and engage in some healthy self-examination of their own beliefs.

Virtually everyone I suppose would agree that it is humanly impossible to be correct 100% of the time, but it seems very few are willing to consider that rule might just happen to apply in their particular case.

Keep up the good work. I know well what it feels like to be at a board arguing points that run counter to the deeply held beliefs and dogma of the strong and determined majority at that board.
