Seems about right.

I would interpret "dozens of kms" as at least 36 kms.

That would be your usual self-aggrandizing, obfuscating intrepetation, Iain.

In fact "dozens of kms" is any number of kms that is signficantly more than
12 km.

A resaonbly correct number of kms that is equivalent to 13.3 miles is 21.4
km, which is properly called "dozens of kms" It is approximately 2 dozen.

On 18th December you wrote on aus.hifi, in a post with
the header "Dear Reader" a follows:

Right Iain, I was correcting your lie that I lived in the City of Detroit.

quote.

Map reading is obviously not one of Iain's strengths.
He knows exactly where I live, within a few meters.

The "center of Detroit" can be taken a number of ways,
but all of the logical ones put me dozens of km away.

Right, almost 2 dozens to be exact.

Iain, I think it is wonderful that you are finally admitting that you lied
when you said that I lived in the City of Detroit. How about apologizing for
this lie and all the rest?

Where I live, there's lovely neighborhoods on one
side, and forests on the other. ?But that's not the
point. The point is that you tried to say you lived
"dozens of kms from the centre of Detroit,"

Never said such a thing. I know better.

I have said that I lived not far outside of Detroit in
response to Iain's continual confused thinking that I
lived in Detroit.
Which is exactly true. Get a map and determine the
geographic center of Detroit. Do the math.

It seems that Google Earth gives the distance from
the centre of Detroit to Arny's front door as 6 miles
(10 kms)

Wrong again.
Totally correct it seems
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grosse_...Park,_Michigan
quote from Wiki
Bordering on Detroit with frontage on southern Lake Saint
Clair, it is the westernmost of the noted Grosse Pointe
suburbs, with the oldest overall housing stock of the
five cities. Grosse Pointe Park is six miles (10 km) east
of downtown Detroit,

I don't live in Grosse Pointe Park. That's a number of �miles away, and
closer to downtown Detroit.

Furthermore, Downtown Detroit is actually right along the Eastern edge of
Detroit, along the river. The other side of the river is Windsor, Ontario,
Canada. � So, no way is downtown Detroit in the center of the city.

I just measured the distance from the official center of
Detroit per Wikipedia to my house and came up with a
significantly larger number.
By a new piece of string then:-)))

Note that Iain has already corrected this post, but of course without
admitting any error on his part. No apology, either. Thus we see that Iain
lacks basic human integrity. He lies, catches himself in a lie, and then
just continues on telling more likes.- Hide quoted text -

You should at least learn how to tell credible lies Iain. People in the US
state distance in miles as a rule. Archaic, yes but that it how it is done.

So Marc, about 2 dozen can never be properly called "dozens"?

If you consult your style book Marc, you'll find that it is appropriate to
use a plural to describe any number of items that is more than one item.

Or when you write Marc, do you write "1 and a half items" as 1 and a half
item"?

Marc I think you ought to help out the New York Times when they made the
following mistakes in their newspaper:

"BRITISH IN PALESTINE CAPTURE TWO VILLAGES; Advance One and a Half Miles on
Five Mile Front North of Jerusalem. "

"The drive from Manhattan to Long Pond takes a scant two hours, but the last
one-and-a-half miles into the parking lot take about the same time. "

"About one and a half kilometers after passing the entrance to the
Syracuse-Noto autostrada, fork to the left at the small sign for Case del
Feudo. The gate is 400 meters farther; the signs are very discreet."

etc.

I guess Iain and Marc need to straighten out the editors at the New York

In fact "dozens of kms" is any number of kms that is signficantly more

Again, your feeble English comprehension, pointed out by so many,
including the excellent John Atkinson, lets you down badly.

For 12 kms one would say "More than a dozen kilometres"
For 24 kilometres, one would say "A couple of dozen kilometres"
For 36 kms or more, one would say "several dozen kiometres"

The expression you used (to which I posted positive proof)
was "dozens of km"

Give up the recording Arny, you are no good at it anyway,
and spend your time more usefully in remedial English classes.


A resaonbly correct number of kms that is equivalent to 13.3 miles is 21.4

Then anyone else (with the possible exception of yourself) would say
"less than a couple of dozen kilometres"

I have now posted the time and date of the post in which you used
the term "dozens of km", which you claimed was a lie on my part.
I have proved it was not so.

I just measured the distance from the official

Please define "significant". We're at 10 km. Is

Do your homework.
You do know how to log into Google Earth and
Wikipedia, right?
The center of Grosse Pointe Woods will get you close
enough to my house for umm, government work. ;-)
I come up with 10. What's your number, my master and commander?
I get 13.3. That's from Arny's house to "Detroit, MI,"
which Google automatically directs to the geographical
center of the city.

Seems about right.

I would interpret "dozens of kms" as at least 36 kms.

That would be your usual self-aggrandizing, obfuscating intrepetation, Iain.

In fact "dozens of kms" is any number of kms that is signficantly more than
12 km.

A resaonbly correct number of kms that is equivalent to 13.3 miles is 21.4
km, which is properly called "dozens of kms" It is approximately 2 dozen.-

In no way is 21.4 ever referred to as �"dozens." �Game, set, match.

correct
dozens are twentt four or more.
21.4 is corectly referred to as "more than a dozen".-

As a professional editor, if someone called 21.4 "dozens" I would
change it to something like "more than a dozen." "Dozens" is
inaccurate and an exaggeration. I would also chastise the writer for
it. It's not intelligent writing.

But that begs two questions:

Why does Arny live in an area that he is ashamed of?

Why is Arny trying so hard to duck out of the discussion about his
claim that he has a professional recording career?

This "dozens" discussion is bull****, a smoke screen. Every time he
brings it up, he should first be asked to provide a link to proof that
he's a recording professional.

On 18th December you wrote on aus.hifi, in a post with
the header "Dear Reader" a follows:

Right Iain, I was correcting your lie that I lived in the
City of Detroit.

quote.

Map reading is obviously not one of Iain's strengths.
He knows exactly where I live, within a few meters.

The "center of Detroit" can be taken a number of ways,
but all of the logical ones put me dozens of km away.

Right, almost 2 dozens to be exact.

Iain, I think it is wonderful that you are finally
admitting that you lied when you said that I lived in the
City of Detroit. How about apologizing for this lie and
all the rest?
OK Arny here's an apology. I am sorry that you live in
Detroit. Happy now?

If you're so embarrassed to live near Detroit that
you would waste this much energy debating its
proximity, maybe you should consider moving to a
nicer area.

Ignorance of the background of the controversy
noted.

It's all about Iain's lying, which is often more
frequent and obvious than yours, Marc.

Neither Marc nor I have lied.

LOL! You were both caught in several lies just
yesterday.

That's a lie:-) LOL

That's very curious Iain, now that you are making a big
point of agreeing that you lied when you said that I
lived in the City of Detroit, since you now admit that
I
live dozens of kms from the center of Detroit.

None of that is correct.
You know, Arny, most of us are busy people and we don't
have the time to waste in these petty parlor tricks of
yours.

Which is why Marc conscienciously replies to so many of my
posts, often
minutes after I make them.

Ah, another straw man.


He's so busy with his free-lance writing career that he
has nothing better
to do, almost 24/7.

Oh wait...I thought I was the guy with unexplained absences,
and that
I didn't contribute enough to the group to be taken
seriously by you!
LOL!


?The simple fact is that you live near a city that
is known as one of the biggest cesspools in North
America.

No, I don't live that close to Los Angeles or New York
City.

Straw man.


Any student of geography knows that they are far larger
than Detroit. Any
student of sociology knows that they are cesspools in
their own right.

Straw man.


?You live 13.3 miles from the center of it.

Thanks Mark [sic] for again admitting that I live "dozens
of km from the center of
Detroit".

That didn't happen.


?Now leave us alone.

Just stop responding to my posts so compulsively, Marc.

What can I say? You're an easy target.

Boon

Of course when I had this same conversation with Arny a
while ago I did state that "he lived in the metropolitan
area of Detroit." It is still Detroit where he lives
(cowers?) regardless of what suburb he actually has his
hovel in.

Poor guy is really touchy about this subject eh? Detroit
must be really that bad ;-)

You are asserting that living in Detroit is so awful

deserves to offer you an apology.

No, I'm simply catching Iain in yet another lie.

Hundreds of feet? Why not convert into inches, cms or mm?
That way it would sound much more. You could then say, in your

customary convoluted manner "tens of hundreds of dozens

of millimetres"


Arny, you are a very funny man:-)
You should trade in your toyshop console and mics
for a red nose, an outrageous orange wig, a huge
pair of boots, and baggy trousers:-)

Let the record show that the "toyshop console" is a Yamaha 02R96, and the
"toyshop microphones" are microphones that are generally accepted tools for
use in a good quality live sound environment, including professional
products by Shure, Countryman Associates, Rode, and Audix.

OK, no Neumanns. Maybe down the road.

So. If you cannot blame your tools for the poor

If you do not need to do multi microphone work, then
you might be wise to sell off your church's mic collection
and buy just one pair of Neumanns. It's a shame they
don't have someone there who knows what he/she is
doing, to advise them.

But I still think the red nose ans baggy trousers would
suit you better:-)

Now where is your link?

That's a pretty typically ignorant thing for you to say, Iain. If it wasn't
for the multi-microphone work, that church environment, like most church
environments, would be completely impossible.

That's just live sound.

You know Iain, given what little you know about live sound, you should
really keep your totally pie-hole shut about it.

I see the problem Marc. It would take a lot more brains than you must have
