>>> "May is clear to a fault that their products are believed to work directly upon the listener." <<<

Rick m, can you also see the reply I have done to Unclestu ?

The stumbling block seems to be the expression you used - "works directly upon the listener".

These words imply that 'something' is either physically wafting across/past or wafting through the person or actually physically touching them.

Can I describe a hypothetical situation. Something in your room makes you suddenly alert. You don't know what it is but the hairs at the back of your neck suddenly stand up - in other words you have reacted to something !!!

Would you describe that as 'something working DIRECTLY on the person', or having an INDIRECT effect on the person ? If it is not physically touching the person or radiating through them - as in radiation or magnetism - then surely it has to be described as 'indirect' ?

If we can get some common ground in language, we might be able to progress further.

Regards,
May Belt.
