One would think from your post that one's ability to solder has
something to do with one's ability to make aesthetic judgements. Do I
hve to tell you just how stupid that idea is? Engineers do the work the
hobbyists consume it.

So they're mutually exclusive?

The ability to solder and the ability to make aestheic judgemens? Yes
they are.

Isn't that a tad pompous?


No, it is a very stupid to thnk they are in any way related.



One does not need to know anything about engineering to evaluate the
results.

And in your case to totally misunderstand them?

**** you never cease to amaze me with your stupidity. How does one
misunderstand their perceptions in and of themselves? Sure one can come
up with eroneous explanantions for the causes of heir peceptions but
misunderstand them? Again you are trying to call aesthetic peceptions
wrong because they don't meet the expectations of your worshipped
meansurements. no thank you.



Seems I've heard this before many many times. Usually from a bean counter.
Who doesn't understand how to evaluate technical matters either.


That doesn't even make sense.



But you find it important to know the name of who engineered a recording,


Yes. for reasons already explained to you.


but not to know how it's made, etc? Weird or what.

no just you making **** up again when your arguments fail. Where did I
ever say I don't care how it's made? I care in so far as I can relate
it to the end result.



It seems that in the case of the meter readers a little bit of knowledge
is a destructive force. Sad. To see you posture one would think you have
this wacky idea that you were actually a somebody in the world of audio.

I'm somebody in my world of audio.


Yeah right.


That's all that matters to me. You
seems terribly star struck.

You seem totally delluded.


Are you some kind of groupie?


You think you have groupies? Sure their not just cheap hookers?

Wonder what your only 'supporter' Mr G will make of that? He loves to
build kit and is the vinyl disciple to end all disciples.

I'd guess you haven't understood plain English - again. Perhaps because
there aren't any curses in it.

I'll bet he agrees. I think he is smart enough to know his soldering
skills are independent of his listening skills.

He loves to
build kit


Yes I have noticed that. I have yet to see him claim that his skills at
building has any impact on his listening skills.

and is the vinyl disciple to end all disciples.


Disciple? I know he generally prefers LPs over CDs. I guess you can't
wrap your punny brain around that so you have to attack it. sad

Just prefers? I'm getting a feeling you simply don't read or understand UK

It was a loaded question. Like do you still beat your wife? The point
is they are independent. You have been trying to assert they are
related.

I'm getting the feeling you rely on semantics since your arguments
don't hold up.

So at the end of all this, which are they, mutually exclusive or
independent? Just so I know.

Hey Don, how are you doing today? Independent. not mutually exclusive.




See Kieth, I am being nice to Don.

'mutually exclusive' 'independent' and 'loaded question' are all synonymous.

No it wasn't. You were suggesting they were and I simply wanted
clarification.

The point is they are independent.

So you're backtracking now?

You have been trying to assert they are related.

Where and when?

Scott, I really wouldn't waste my life's breath arguing with Plowie - he
thinks he knows summat and wants to be my uncle and I won't let him is how
it is....

(The reason I'm sorry to see you and Don trading blows is that Don really
*does* know summat and he *can* be my uncle, despite being about 5 years
younger than me!! ;-)
