one hell of a run-on sentence masquerading as a paragraph. Where was the editor and who stole the guys Adderall? On the other hand, I should be the last to cast the first stone as I've written my share of run-on sentences. Let him live!

When was the last time an editor of an audio mag/zine actually 'edited' - line by line, or otherwise - the writing of a contributor?
and generally the conventions of good usage and grammar are followed. Certainly, when it comes to online sites, there is a great deal of variability encountered with the quality of writing and editing. Anyway, that's my take on it, FWIW.
Then how do you explain SP's former writer, Mr.Mejias, who I realize that JA thought was just wonderful?
Wasn't Mejias some sort of editor for Stereophile?
Perhaps Atkinson allowed Mejias to edit his own copy?
That might explain the mistakes :-(
