Default Got to laugh

My point, continuing as Devil's Advocate here, is that there is
probably just as much voodoo working when the 'snake oil squealers'
decry various products/practices - whether their objections are based
on a solid, demonstrable, scientific understanding, wishful thinking
or just plain common sense. The fact remains that some people
*believe* they perceive differences and improvements and, as I stated
in one of the bits you snipped, I ain't about to spoil their fun.


The point is that the sellers aren't offering belief, they're offering what
is touted as a real physical change. They aren't saying, "Pay far too much
money for this perfectly ordinary bit of copper wire and thereby kid
yourself that it's better because you paid more!", they're saying that their
cables actually *do* sound better. They're nothing but lying, scamming con
artists.
