Re: Several comments…

"As far as I can see he has not claimed to have heard any but the ones he has owned." - Yes, but then he doesn't claim to have owned any of the items he ridicules.

Read the page extremely carefully and critically - there is no evidence whatsoever that he has owned or listened to any of the products he ridicules.


"Can I ask how you came to this conclusion (about elevators) and if you have a high confidence in it? Why do you feel so many apparently well informed people disagree and without feeling the need to test?" - I came to it by listening and I have reasonable confidence in it. All of the 'well informed' people you refer to who have not felt the need to test this product have obviously never tried them, or they would effectively have tested them, and their 'information' often comes solely from pages like the one in the link being discussed here, which provide no scientific comment whatsoever on this product so they're not particularly well informed.


"Why do you feel the need to appeal to science for an explanation when you have gone against conventional scientific reasoning in being able to hear a difference? Don't you feel the explanation may lie somewhere else?" - I haven't gone against scientific reasoning, conventional or otherwise. At best scientific reasoning will strongly suggest that I shouldn't hear anything but conventional scientific reasoning has often been wrong and revised during the history of science. In this particular case, please share with us all the reasoning you refer to which suggests that I shouldn't hear anything - I'd like to know the scientific basis for your belief on this one.

And that request is not an attempt to shift the onus of proof. You say that there are scientific reasons why I shouldn't hear anything so I'm simply asking you to tell me what those reasons are. Can you do that?
