Every country has done something rotten, France and the USA are
probably more similar than alike in that we both have a real problem in
dealing with it. For what it's worth France will probably outlast the
US. Arthur Miller outlasted Marilyn Monroe as well, I think history has
already decided which had a bigger and better impact on the world
however.

The French Resistance was heroic and paid an extreme price for their
acts, nothing can take that away from them. But, they were a very small
minority. On the other hand the United States did a lot of
rotten-spirited things and have to this day hid behind musty, soiled
bunting and an unsingable national anthem and douche bag popular
apologists, Toby Keith being the most recent in a long sordid line.


Perhaps it's just human nature.

RAO is populated mostly by phonies and sockpuppets. Still

It's obvious to me who had the bigger impact on the world.
Marilyn Monroe

You would be surprised at how many people couldn't
tell you who Arthur Miller was nor identify his photograph.

I'm sure that it mainly depends in which world you are
living. ;-)

Resistance is always a very small minority.
In *all* the invaded countries I have cited you in a
previous post resistance *has* been the fact of a small
minority... Even in today conflicts resistance is still the
fact of a very small minority.
Note that in 1944 the US general Dwight
Eisenhower, famous for his expertise in military logistic,
has estimated the action of the french resistance to the
equivalent of 36 divisions.
In short the resistance is always the fact of a minority the
most important thing in *resistance* in general is to keep
this number *growing*.

On the other hand the United States did a lot of
rotten-spirited things and have to this day hid behind musty, soiled
bunting and an unsingable national anthem and douche bag popular
apologists, Toby Keith being the most recent in a long sordid line.


In 1936 French have regularly elected a socialist
government. We call this period "front populaire".
The president was a jewish : Léon Blum.
Socialist and Jewish !!! It was really too much for the
French industrial antisemitic bourgeoisie and potentate...

If you tell me now that the a certain classe of the French
society was not so embarrassed *in a first time* of the
military deroute and the Vichy collaboration govermnent I am
obliged to confirm that you are nearly right.

Perhaps it's just human nature.


Yes 10% of resistants, 10% of collaborators and 80% of the
people who are only interested in the return to the peace...
I am sure that in Iraq now the ratios are nearly the same.

OK, you're an attempted plagiarist. ;-) But the only reason your
plagiarized material didn't get into print is that dave busted you in
the nick of time. I'd say you owe him a debt of gratitude.


Yep, I am glad that he caught that one. I went through some
of the others (those where my contacts at given companies
simply suggested that I go to their web sites to extract the
info I needed for company-history articles) and checked.
Everything was fine.

Notwithstanding your quibble about the degree of accomplishment in your
plagiarism activities, it's telling that you still profess not to see
anything wrong with stealing somebody else's work and passing it off as
your own.


Well, I admitted that I was tired and had been racing to
meet a deadline that was rushing up fast. (The project
lasted about 9 months, and I wrote well over 100 articles
and edited and updated perhaps even more than that.) I got
sloppy, but that was near the end of the project and I
checked and found that there were no problems elsewhere. Get
a copy of the book and look it over. (Well, it is really two
books: a two-volume set.) Perhaps you can travel out to LA
with John Atkinson and look over the copy that Floyd Toole
owns.

After all this time, the best you can do is claim you're not a
real plagiarist because you didn't get away with it.

Haw, haw, haw.


The book is in print, and I have also published four books
previously and over 150 articles. More than we can say for
you, who can do no better than mouth off on RAO.

I make this point, because you are at liberty to ask me what
each book says about something on any page within any of
them. I will tell you about what is on each page (say, page
80 or each or page 150 of each, whatever) and you can then
determine if the guy here who is behaving as a Ferstler
sockpuppet is the real Ferstler instead. I would assume that
only the "real" Howard Ferstler would have all of those
books on hand.

Does the real Howard Ferstler know you're playing in RAO under his

Again, state a page number and I will tell you what is on
each of those pages in all five publications. I have the

dismissed by skeptics on the gounds that we were just "lucky

Or, on a more practical level, you zeroed in on the click

What click noises, Mr. Ferstler? The switching in these tests,
organized by the AES, was silent.

you and your crew take a test like that, possibly pass by the
skins of your teeth, and then use that as justification for
proclaiming that amps that cost ten grand more than cheaper
versions are worth the cost. To me, that is spouting propaganda
to satisfy your knuckleheaded readers - who would dump the
magazine in a flash if you fessed up.


What is it about the phrase "statistically significant" that
you don't understand, Mr. Ferstler? In any case, I was merely
instancing these tests to prove Arny Krueger and you wrong
when you both implied that "me and my crew" would never take
part in public blind tests of amplifiers. I have, they have,
Arny was wrong, you were wrong, end of story.

Oh, yes. Remember to not only bring up the subject of Howard
Ferstler when you visit Floyd and Sean...


Whay are you obseesed with this planned visit of mine to Harman,

Looks like you are just going to have to deal with the
sockpuppet. Of course, you could scope the internet a bit
and come up with the real Ferstler's email address (it ought
to be easy to find, possibly attached to a reproduction of
one of his articles or some book info), contact him, and see
if he has heard of the guy you deal with right here.

Or, you could just ask Dave Weil, who has emailed Ferstler
on occasion and even received copies of older article drafts
(published by Mr. Ferstler) from him. Dave, of course, did
not have access to the actual articles in print and so Mr.
Ferstler, being kind, sent him those Word-file drafts to
look over. Actually, there are quite a few real people who
occasionally post here who might help you discover the real
Mr. Ferstler.

You also seem to have a slightly different kind of humor than the
previous sockpuppet master who did the "professional audio clown" act.


I shift my approach in order to undermine tweako-freako
audio from as many directions as I can.

Trust me, the real Mr. Ferstler is offended by tweakos as
the RAO Mr. Ferstler.

I have never met either of them, but I have corresponded
with each for some time (almost 20 years, actually) and also
profiled each of them in The Encyclopedia of Recorded Sound.
While I do not agree completely with their approach to
speaker sound (I see their points, but I have checked some
points put forth by others, too, and find those to be
equally valid), I believe that all three of us are on the
same wavelength when it comes to the sound of amps, wires,
and CD players.

Trust me, John, you do not need to meet people face to face
to identify with them and discover that they are intelligent
and honest individuals.

Enjoy your visit.

Sure he would. Just ask his wife. The word as has been
reinstalled, please note. With all of the writings that I
plan on publishing, I type, proof, and retype many times
before submitting a draft. Not so here on RAO.

Incidentally, over the last few days I have:

1. Sent a draft of an amplifier review off to a publisher.
2. Sent a draft dealing with the electrical performance of
the amp written by an engineer that I edited off to the same
publisher.
3. Sent a copy of a draft dealing with a subjective review
of that amp written by a subjectivist writer that I edited a
bit off to the same publisher. I disagree with his analysis
completely, but I still am allowing it to be published along
with my report.
4. Sent a draft of a DVD (SACD/DVD-A) player review off to a
publisher.
5. Sent a draft of an analysis of the player's DAC written
by an engineer and edited by me off to the same publisher.
6. Sent a draft of a bunch of SACD recording reviews off to
the same publisher. These are to be in the same issue of the
magazine as the player review.
7. Sent a draft of a speaker review to still another
publisher.

All this was done with my right hand, and I still managed to
deal with RAO with my left.

You are now openly and stupidly supporting Sackman's xenophobic
propaganda. This gives us a precise idea of the filth in which you are
swimming now.



I am not fearful of foreigner's. It's just that
I don't like the arrogant, corrupt, and dishonest people in France.


You are not only a stupid xenophobe you are also a dangerous liar.
Your past posts are full of disdainful and calumnious declaration about
France and French in *general*...

In the '20s France has welcome a lot of Russian Jewish emigrants who were
fleeding the Soviets' savagery.
Their past and today testimonials totally dismiss you.

Your recent comments are just an other demonstration of your pathologic
jingoist xenophobia and are certainly the consequence of your total lack
of personality.

The weaker is the personality the stronger is the propention to the
caricatural generalizations... :-(




**** off, asshole.
You are a liar and an idiot.
I am not Xenophobic. My negative attitude
is directed only against France.


No in fact your negative attitude is directed only against
*you*. You are the only one to ignore that and this is very
funny. The more you speak the more you are ridiculous. ;-)


I'm not even a
Francophobe, because I'm not really scared of your ilk,
just annoyed and disgusted by them.


I understand and I share your point of view.
In fact Hitler wasn't really anti-semitic you know, he was
just "annoyed" and "disgusted" by Jewish people.
In the end he has murdered 6 millions of innocents so I'm
not persuaded of the importance of the nuance, sorry.

At least I can prove that I have stuff in print (check
Amazon; check the newsstands). On the other hand, all we
have from you, Mr. Phony, are unsubstantiated and over
inflated statements about your accomplishments.


Bunk.


And how do we know you're not some kind of anonymous coward who

uses
the handle "Howard Ferstler" on usenet? ;-)


Could be. However, I would have to be pretty crazy to own
all four of this individual's books, as well as a copy of
the $275 Encyclopedia of Recorded Sound that he helped to
edit.



That goes for anyone. I wonder if anyone has ever actually purchased
all of your garbage. What a waste of money that would be.

The guy is obviously a phony. He could claim to be Bill
Clinton, Jet Li, or Osama. Instead, he claims to be a
make-up artist, and may actually be using another person's
name.

RAO is populated mostly by phonies and sockpuppets. Still
fun to kick them around, however.


I have been to his house
I saw his highly coveted awards.
maybe he was just 'borrowing' someone elses house!
You are an idiot!


And I am supposed to believe YOU? For all we know, you and
he are the same person. This place is a sockpuppet's
paradise.


Look it up.

Look, stupid, all the guy posting here needs to do is steal
the real person's name.

In any case, what does being a makeup artist, or even an
Oscar winner, have to do with the guy being an expert on
audio? He can be as deluded as the next idiot, including
you.

Why not? Art hasn't plagiarized anyone that we know of nor has he
published fraudulant DBTs. Not everyone is as dishonest as you.

Try a different sockpuppet handle, pal. The one you are

This is really despicable, Howard.


Says you. If this guy is who he says he is, the situation is
even worse. All of us would like to believe that famous
people (who are not murderers, at least) are smarter than
average and have level heads. That this guy does not tells
me one of two things:

1. Being famous does not make you smart.

2. The guy who posts here is borrowing a famous-person's
name.

If it is number 1, the guy is a disappointment, because we
want famous people to be smart; if it is number 2, you tell
me what is "really despicable."

Once again I am flattered that you think other people would want to be

Nothing. No one said it did. To bad you are too stupid to follow the
thread. By the way, I didn't win the Oscar. I was just nominated.

Doesn't say anything about being printed or published. Gosh a some
writer you are. You are a plagiarist who doesn't know the meaning of
the word plagiarist. Haw haw haw.


And yet I am still in print, tweako, which is more than I
can say for you. And, no, posting on RAO is not being "in
print."

The world awaits your
compilation of the articles in question.


The world, by and large, has no interest and has no idea who the hell
you are.


But obviously you do, given that you post rebuttals to my
comments on a regular basis. I think that your world kind of
revolves around mine, tweako.

Anyway, why do my editors keep publishing my stuff?
Actually, a high-end (yes, high end) speaker manufacturer
recently told me that after I reviewed his speakers he got
loads of messages asking for more info, and sales increased.
What's more, although the review appeared months ago
(actually, over a year ago), he told me that recently
somebody read my review in a hi-fi shop (the tattered
magazine copy apparently was kept on hand in a file) and
contacted the manufacturer about obtaining some speakers.

So goes my fame in the world of audio. Haw, haw, hawwwww..

That casts a doubt on
anything you claim to write yourself.


Which is why I urge all of my readers to do their own DBT
work,


Really? You urge others to do DBTs because you are not trust-worthy?
OK.....


No. Because nobody should take someone else's word for
something as subjective as sound differences between amps or
between wires. The very best way to be sure is to do the
comparing yourself. The articles were just starting-point
guides.

in order to see if they can hear what they say they
can hear when the blindfolds are not in place.


I have done that. You didn't like the results. Deal with it.


Not level matched properly, almost for sure.

Remember, even if I were a published plagiarist,


You are. Think about it.


Yeah? Well tell us where the published items are located.

the
important point for YOU is to discover if your beliefs about
wires and amps can be substantiated - if only to benefit you
and nobody else.


Been there done that.


Bunk. You are a fake, tweako.
