Hi Guys,

Coming in a little late on the topic...

I know for sure there are lots of "snake oil" in audio.  Just like the internet.  We just have to weed our way through them. ;)

Cheers,
Levi

Not only that, you get to exude that special sense of superiority unique to those rare individuals possessing uncommonly huge amounts of common sense.   Tell me, how great is it being you, and not someone like me?  8)
really great!!! :green: :wink:

One would have to think so, the only way things could get any better I think would be to be Richard BassNut Greene.  When nothing makes a difference, how can you possibly get anything wrong?    :D

true, but you couldn't get anything right, then either.  fortunately, i know that some things do make a difference.  (that's one reason i like to try different tunas.)  but, i am also "brilliant" enough to know when there are, in fact, things that do not make a difference...  like "brilliant pebbles"...  and, no, i do not need to actually try them to know it, either!   :wink:

Reminds me of how someone made a fortune off these, back in the day:

There's your free market at work...

...Come to think of it, how much do free markets depend on a broken education system?

That's it, just keep preaching abstinence to the choir.



Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you
Mama's gonna keep you right here
Under her wing
she won't let you fly but she might let you sing
Mama will keep baby cosy and warm
Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe
Of course Mama's gonna help build the wall

I assume you had some point in quoting Pink Floyd's "The Wall" underneath a picture of an Indian.  But heck if I know what it was.

Wayner

I think that's Floyd before he went pink.

That's all part of the fun of communicating with pictures.   :lol:

Plus, I stimulated someone to listen to "The Wall".  Tell me, where's the harm in that?   :wink:

Wayner

I was listening to the Wall before I saw your post, but thats OK. Pink Floyd on.....
