RY - You have been clear about your disdane for tubeguy's position(s), but without him this forum would be just a bunch of scientist and engineer wannabes who still manage to show incredible disrespect for each other while slinging stones at any "uneducated" inmates who may have only wanted to learn a few things.Learn a few things? Those who reject science completely and embrace superstition want to learn? Learn what?
Learn from scientist and engineer "wannabes"? Why?
Why here? Why not over at the Cable Asylum where the true scientists and engineers reside?RY - Those who, on this forum, claim that the death of the high-end is due to snake oil and advertising hyperbole need to look in the mirror: the arrogance and rudeness demonstrated by the holders of the audio "truth" would chase anyone away.
Objectivists helped to end the Dark Ages too (Well, for some people). Shame there also huh?
RY - And AJ, let's all just hope that you never have to deal with mental illness, either your own or anyone in your family. The irony just wouldn't be funny.If me or someone in my family heard differences between wood knobs, glow in the dark cables, etc., they should be committed immediately.
BTW, when did you get out?cheers,
AJ

Why here? Why not over at the Cable Asylum where the true scientists and engineers reside?"I believe I said "any 'uneducated' inmates" in my statement. Did you assume I meant only Tubeguy? I was also referring to myself and many others. Reject science? Embrace superstition? Wow, you sure do know how to project. Where did you get that concerning me? And are you a scientist or an engineer, or maybe you're in cahoots with Miss Cleo since you seem to have been able to read into me all sorts of things I myself was unaware of. oh the irony that you demonstrate a shared talent with a "psychic." Oh, and the Cable Asylum?? Come on AJ: those guys are nucking futs.
"Objectivists helped to end the Dark Ages too (Well, for some people). Shame there also huh?"No shame there, just a demonstration by you of a void in your education. Are you talking about the Renaissance? Egads. Quite a good amount of what was considered "objective" science turned out to be very wrong (see Copernicus). That doesn't do much for your argument, does it? You might consider reading up on the "Dark" Ages as well. It turns out that it was only "Dark" from a particular point of view. And just to be complete here, arrogance and rudeness in the Dark Ages were bad behavior then as well.
"BTW, when did you get out?"Sorry I didn't say "Bye" when I left, but you were busy being fitted for a new helmet. I didn't know they made them so small.
