Default A psychologist's view of Hi-Fi fetishism

Do you know all that stuff for fact or is it a characterisation?

As a characterisation, it may be a little over the top! ...but don't let me
stop you.

The only thing I object to is any derogatory allusion to his source of
income. If Phil is suffering from chronic clinical depression, as I suspect
he is, he deserves financial support. The alternatives are worse!

As a pensioned disabled carer, the only source of income I have is from that
pension and the only thing that keeps me happy and is music, glorious music.

The same goes for my dependant, who is bed ridden. I've built him his own
remote controlled Hi-Fi and entertainment system sitting at the end of his
bed. The necessity to do so on a small income is what compels me towards
DIY.

Phil is a very lonely man,


Except he voices in his head keep him company ;-)

extremely intelligent


Intelligent maybe but NOT smart. A classic example is when
he paid A$4,500 for a dud set of Quad ESL 57s. Here is the
all time Quad expert making a complete fool of himself :-))
It is a very funny story. BTW just as Pavlov trained dogs I
have trained Philthy. The mere mention of this will get him
to trot it all out again - just wait ;-)

and knowledgeable, but


Yes he uses Google very well and this can feign knowledge
easily ;-)

unable to make people like him.


This has something to do with his strict Catholic upbringing
and his repressed homosexual tendencies.

His need for intellectual stimulation is in


The word you are looking for here is "Ego". This needs to
be constantly fed. e.g. just mention to him you have *any*
formal qualification (even a swimming certificate or drivers
license) and just see what happens let a alone a Uni degree.
Philthy has *NO* qualifications at all! Period. He does not
even have a driver's license. He is a failure at everything
he tried and even quit 2 years into a university degree that
was fully funded by a scholarship.

conflict with his revulsion for human contact.


That is because every human he comes in contact with is
sickened by him.

So Mark do we need to mention he is also a net stalking,
libelling, unemployed, backyard tinkerer who tries to fix
various pieces of domestic appliances on his kitchen table
as well? ;-) Or the fact that the only reason why his sorry
arse has not been dragged through the courts already for
defamation is that he has *NO* assets. He pretends to have
an income from his hobby "fix it" business he runs from his
rundown rented bed-sit when he is obviously receiving some
sort of govt. hand out.

The truth is this guy is nothing but a very sad, lonely old
man who is a total failure at life and is really something
to be pitied.

Regards TT (a past victim of this psycho)

characterisation?

I'll start at the beginning. Philthy here has a hobby
business and as such under Australian taxation law is not
registered for GST which means his turnover is less than
A$50,000 per year. Where he lives and the rents he would
paying makes for a very meagre lifestyle if this was his
only income. Remember we are talking turnover not profit
here. So it is an "educated guess" yes.

see http://tinyurl.com/3bfrze

As a characterisation, it may be a little over the top!

....but don't let me
stop you.

Please remember that I and several of my friends in business
here have had this guy has *PAY* for company searches on
our businesses and then he has proceeded to malign and libel
anyone else attached to those businesses in cluding family
members.

The only thing I object to is any derogatory allusion to

his source of
income. If Phil is suffering from chronic clinical

depression, as I suspect
he is, he deserves financial support. The alternatives are

worse!

I have no objection to Philthy receiving government
assistance *except* he needs to forced to keep on his
medications and/or institutionalised without internet
access! Also please do not misunderstand my intention here,
I am not in anyway belittling anyone who genuinely needs
support *BUT* I am having a shot at Philthy who constantly
carries on as if he is a grand entrepreneur and has a
thriving electronics business.

As you have no doubt seen he is constantly having a shot at
*anyone* that has a mere glimmer of success attached to them
and if in doubt please do a Google Groups search?

As a pensioned disabled carer, the only source of income I

have is from that
pension and the only thing that keeps me happy and is

music, glorious music.

My sincerest sympathies here and am very pleased you can
find happiness in music. I believe in genuine cases as
yourself the social services are in no way doing enough to
help and support people in your situation. I only have a
problem with people recieving benefits they are not entitled
to.

BTW do a Google Groups search on philthy's name and
"Autistic" http://tinyurl.com/ysnxme

I also apologise in advance for the potential distress you
may have in reading Philthy's posts in that link.

I make it 836! So please tell me how much he really cares
for the sufferes of this condition or the people engaged in
their care? Or the numerous times he has told people to
"get cancer and die"? I personally find it very difficult
to to feel any sympathy for this sad little man and no
hardship is too bad to befall him.



The same goes for my dependant, who is bed ridden. I've

built him his own
remote controlled Hi-Fi and entertainment system sitting

at the end of his
bed. The necessity to do so on a small income is what

compels me towards
DIY.

There will be enornous amout of good quality second hand
gear coming on the market as manufacturers push for ever
more featured gizmos ;-) Just think what a Playstation 2
will be worth in about 2 weeks ;-) As entertainment box
with networking abilty, DVD/CD replay and a HD it may be
something to think about perhaps.


So finally Mark if I have offended you in any way please
accept my apology as it was not my intention to disparage
anyone except Philthy.

Cheers TT

Mark,

Everything Terry has said is the truth. If anything I think he has painted
an optimist's view of Phil and tried to see the positive side of him.

For years I've been a victim of Phil. First it was just a fax message to my
workplace, then numerous posts all over various newsgroups claiming I'm a
sex tourist and a paedophile. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Then came the harassment on Usenet of my business partner. Phil published
his personal details all over several newsgroups and still got it wrong by
not ensuring the so called "facts" were indeed up to date. He published
links to our website making all sorts of unfounded accusations about the
nature of our business..

Next he had someone do several visits to my home. Phil reporting on Usenet
enough detailed information such as my address, what was growing in my front
garden behind a brick wall etc to be convincing enough he had someone
stalking me. Bear in mind I live in Perth - Phil lives in Sydney. Anyone
going to this extreme to get some else to spy on someone thousands of
kilometres away has (IMHO) some serious unresolved issues. In short the guy
is a crackpot. As Terry has said, perhaps to be pitied, but IMHO he's
positively dangerous. Stalking today - more serious crime tomorrow.

All you need to do to get Phil's undivided attention is to openly disagree
with something he has posted on UseNet. Doesn't matter what it is about.
Within three posts in a thread you will be accused of being a "****wit",
quickly followed by all manner of abuse. Then if you are really unlucky you
may start to receive the same degree of unwanted attention some of us have
had to endure. The above examples are but merely a small sample of what
Phil is capable of. :-(

Cheers,
Alan

Sad but very true :-(

BTW I was actually surprised at the search results of
"autistic" as well. I know he used it often but 836 times!

This is one sick puppy we're dealing with here :-(.

Cheers TT

The get-well cards that some rec.audio.pro folks sent from the AES show

I have suggested on numerous occasions that he seek
professional help and if all else fails to seek the services
of someone like Dr. Kevorkian ;-)

No need. I'll provide the same service, free of charge.
In fact I'll even pay him if he signs a document
exonerating me from any legal libility & agreeing to
my euthanasing him, albeit V-E-R-Y S-L-O-W-L-Y
by numerous heavy blows to the head & body :-).
