CAN WE AUDIOPHILES DO OUR PART?

Sometimes it is more important to reveal the truth then to make sure every last word is spelled correctly. Very tired last night and yes dier is spelled dire. I see misspelled words & improperly formed sentences on this thread as well but if you got the time to point them out then your not concerned about this country's future and you're in denial, you can't take the truth. I can understand how some of you see this as hogwash. I'm ok with that but at least I planted a seed and maybe you will see and look at what they are not saying rather then what they are putting out which can be important as well. I talked to a friend about some of this and a lot more in the early 1990's. He asked me what I've been smoking but then he called his brother who is a retired colonel and he confirmed that this information is correct. There is a lot more information to share but this website is not an appropriate platform for this particular subject matter. So you don't like my theory on electrons and how they find their shortest signal path in cabling. How about this one, if you reverse your cabling they will play the music backwards. LOL |
@snarbut That was an incredible post and I would like to thank you for risking your own life to help others afflicted with Covid-19. Thank you for explaining to those in denial, or blinded by political allegiance, why we ALL must take this seriously and do our part, which includes sacrifice, to bring this virus under control. @glupson I apologize for jumping on you. After reading all the posts I see that geoffkait started it. ("Are you out of mind? And try to write in complete sentences, glubby. Even better, don’t write at all.") @millercarbon The original post was not political. |

phd, "...the electrons eventually find their shortest path producing a better sound." Not being a cable expert, I read that as "Electrons are very slow learners. It takes them a month to find the shortest path through 50cm of virtually two-dimensional conductor". I just took a mask off and am still wondering what problems you were talking about when you said that masks make people ill. You must have had something specific on your mind. |
cal91, "@glupson Thanks. I do try to avoid it, but, from time to time, I consciously use it as some kind of emphasis. Now you made me concerned that I do it too often. Ooooops. I am baffled by some of the grammar and spelling I read here. Written by native speakers, no less. geoffkait may be correct. Education may be lacking for some. I "learned" English in two classes a week. It was my fourth, or maybe fifth, language I could communicate in. |
@glupson It is generally accepted that it is OK to start a sentence with "and." People who think it's not proper are probably the same ones who feel it is not good grammar to end a sentence with a preposition. It is. Winston Churchill, an exceptional writer, had a very clever retort to a newspaper that criticized him for ending a sentence with a preposition. Kudos to all of the posters who are expressing reasonable, intelligent, free-thinking, compassionate, empathetic and responsible sentiments towards how we should be looking out for each other during this very real pandemic. I'm not sure how someone can call something a hoax that has killed 130,000 Americans. |
@millercarbon In the immortal words of Ronald Reagan "There you go again." You couldn't resist bringing your politics into what was started as a person's sincere attempt to find ways to help others. I applaud the OP and others who have shown they have a heart and care about all people. I have a question for you millercarbon. What if you're wrong? If I'm wrong by taking this pandemic seriously and doing everything I can to not just keep myself safe, but also to show respect and responsibility in trying to keep others safe, I was simply inconvenienced. No big deal. If you're wrong and are determined to show that you're not falling for this "hoax" and are not going to take precautions to protect yourself and others, people can die. I'm not willing to take that chance with other people's lives. Here's one for you millercarbon: BLACK LIVES MATTER! I'm hoping that I am wrong about how you will react to that, and I will apologize if I'm wrong, But from opinions you have expressed it sounds like you drank the kool-aid (or as another member corrected me, the Clorox). Tell me I'm wrong about you millercarbon. I want to be wrong. I told you that I will keep my politics off the forums if you will do the same. I kept my word until you posted on this thread. And nobody is bullying you as you whined previously. |
Assume ten times more people have contracted the virus than show up in the data, all of whom are perfectly capable of transmitting the virus, including those who have no symptoms. So, is it safe to say 10 million in the US have the virus? 20 million? You tell me. The biggest threat to national security since Pearl Harbor and Cuba Missile Crisis and the government is not only acting like it has ED, it’s fanning the flames. Are we being run by commie rats? |
Serious question. Do those who believe there’s a deep state also believe the government was somehow involved in 9-11? Just curious. You do realize they never found any trace of a plane that supposedly hit the pentagon, right? Nor did any aircraft appear on film taken by cameras pointed right at the pentagon at the time of the explosion. |
phd1,064 posts07-05-2020 10:47pmglupson, I forgot to mention that I do believe in cable burn-in because the electrons eventually find their shortest path producing a better sound. >>>>Sorry, but you must’ve listened to some fake news because electrons don’t travel in cables. But it’s a pretty thought anyway. 🌸 🌺🌸 |
...and the main symptom is a form of paranoia.... "THEY're out to get us....yet again...." *yawn* So, that's news.... This is what happens when esoteria, be it cables, cars, or 'can electrons find a shorter path' (*HUH?!*) become the main topic.... Eventually, the players paint *excuse* 'retreat to their defensive corners'... Wasn't the entire concept behind this forum to be of some sort of assistance, however quixotic and fruitless in the face of some sinister plan suspected by some? Just wondering...... |
I think I've found the basis for the 'deep state' that some find themselves infected by..... ....just a hunch, but I have my insights on occasion.... https://www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/Element-Of-Confusion-by-chrismick42/39723852.UIIS2.XYZ |

glupson, I'm going to agree with you because this information has obviously frightened you and that was not my intent, only to inform. Yes if there is a slight chance I am wrong I still would like to see people take precautions and wear their masks but don't don't take it too far, Yes lets talk about cables. Mine are Cardas, and yes some cable companies do over-charge and over-exaggerate claims of their performance. Once I was sent a pair of ten thousand dollar cables from an Audiogon friend to try and possibly purchase. He claimed that these cables are so good that upon their insertion between a cheap receiver and a cd player made it sound very high end. Once received I could not produce the same results even with my own gear and quickly returned them although they didn't sound offensive to me. LOL. Some may say that my system was not good enough to appreciate the possible improvements but they are wrong. |
phd, I’ll tell you exactly why. Because in the real world, you know, the one you seem not to be a part of, it never happened. Be one heck of a thing to keep secret, don’t you think? Did the 'Deep State' threaten all 2 million to hush up or else? You’re foolishness is now to the point of tedium. You’re claims are now so over the top, I must revisit if it were all a joke... |
