Quoting from Greg's website,

"Yet, for some reason, the vast majority of speaker companies are so worried
about a cabinet than doesn't produce any sound of its own that they use
materials that are so inert they suck the life out of the sound, further
deviating from the live music reference."

In this single paragraph, Greg Singh, setting himself up as a pontifical
authority, puts himself above and beyond the completely established and
theoretically sound basis of modern speaker design, which begins with an
inert cabinet.

"Frequency range: 50-20,000 Hz"
These are Lafayette Radio specs. Where are the dB points, Greg? Just
guessing?

"So to make a long story short, I settled on some drivers made by a Chinese
company called Silver Flute. They make a couple of different ribbon
tweeters, and three different woofer sizes."

Greg, are you going to live on top of the factory? Do you have any idea what
the failure rate of open-market Chinese drivers is?

DID YOU KNOW, that with a bass reflex design, it is imperative to screen
each woofer you receive for the Thiele-Small parameters? Do you think the
Chinese have quality control like SEAS or Scanspeak?

"A ribbon tweeter eventually sprung to mind,"
Duh, genius at work.

"I decided on the larger of the two tweeters, and the biggest of the three
woofers to concoct a speaker that is in a way a classic design--a large
bookshelf 8 inch two way, but with the huge advantages of a ribbon tweeter
and computer designed crossover network."

WHO designed your crossover?
WHAT type is it?
WHEN was it done?
WHERE?
WHY?

"Couple that with a very solid cabinet made of 3/4" MDF,"
Heard of this before.

"excellent bi-wireable speaker terminals,"
What kind of plating, and how many microns?

"hand-soldered connections,"
waveflow is THE way, but you can't afford it. It won't fit on your kitchen
table.

"solid PVC port tube,"
If you're thinking of a bass reflex design, I strongly suggest a port with a
hole in it. A solid hunk of plastic doesn't do much.

"and real oak veneer cabinet, and you have a speaker that is exciting to
listen to and beautiful to look at."

Greg discovers the magic of wood. Overwhelming.

FRAUD! FRAUD! FRAUD!

I'm not sure what you mean, Bob. Are you claiming the Chinese are
inferior human beings, and couldn't possibly build drivers that are of
the quality level of Europeans. That's just racist bull****, Bob.

I doubt you're looking to buy a pair, Bob, so I'm not sure what the
point of those questions are.

I must've missed the waveflow soldered speakers. Which are they?

Tube only has one meaning, Bob--unless you're talking about when you and
Arny get together.

Greg, my poor, dear, obtuse Greg.
ALL woofers have to be screened by the enduser for bass reflex use.
This is simply doubly true for Chinese drivers.
No, I am not claiming the Chinese are inferior human being.
It is well known that most Chinese industry, being a new development, is not
up to world market specs without close supervision. Some good speakers are
being made there, but with close oversight from well established
manufacturers.

Greg, you are a charlatan.

Oversight--right. Your use of the language is deplorable, Bob. And the
Silver Flutes are quite accurate. Buy some and find out.

You mean like in a novel, or an encyclopedia?

Why do you simply reject my own experiences out of hand? I stated a
fact: "oversight" is used commonly to have the meaning from the
dictionary. That is a fact. If you don't recognize it, isn't it
simply because your experience doesn't coincide with mine? Isn't
that at least possible?


> This is the problem: there are dictionary definitions, and then
> there is common usage.

That is exactly so. Your "common usage" excludes truly common
phrases. How do you explain that? Not to mention your favorite
"n- - - - r pile", which neither I nor, apparently, any other RAO
regulars had ever heard until you presented it here. You
characterized it as "common usage" too, yet none of us had ever
heard of it. Comments?


> Writing that is interesting in the here and now

> you anything you don't already know.

You're repeating something I do know -- that you are unable or
unwilling to grant that your own experience in language usage is not
all-inclusive. I've proven that you don't have the all-encompassing
experience you believe you have. I did that simply by citing a fact
whose reality you persist in denying. Yet you refuse to reconsider,
to re-evaluate, to retrench in any way, shape, or form. What does
that say about you?


> On a related note, do you think Bob has shown himself adept with the
> language?

Largely, yes. At least compared to the general wash of Usenet. Far
more adept than Krooger or Nousiane, for example.

Which other RAO regular changes the subject spontaneously in order
to avoid admitting he was wrong? Hint: This individual also said
"The discussion is what I meant, not what I said".


Here's my recap: You made a stupid claim, a single person showed you
were all wet, and now you're trying to pretend you meant something
different from what you said.

Please don't call on me to support your opinions about language or
usage in the future, OK?

So let's review recent history. Once upon a time Middius had a brain fart
and actually figured out that Singh was walking, talking crap, and decided
to take a little time out from his vendetta against me to actually say so in
public.

Singh disappears for a while, and comes back with a line of alleged
loudspeakers. Suddenly Middius shows up on the Greg Singh memorial defense
team, covering Singh's butt 24/7.

It appears that brain farts can strike twice in the same place. Again,
Middius has figured out that Singh is still walking, talking crap.

Why are these "alleged"? As far as I can tell, these loudspeakers
exist and can be ordered.

Of course, you can test whether or not they exist by ordering them.
We'll know in about 4 weeks, right?

No. If anything, I'm repeating what I said in my last post. You can
claim that I'm coming from the dept. of redundancy dept., but I can't
see how you say I'm changing the subject. The subject is word usage in
today's society. Agree or disagree?

Oh, it's like that. Sorry, George, but you're pulling a J. Oberlander
here: what are the credentials that make you the expert? If Glenn
Zelniker explains the pitfalls of audio manufacturer, he's got
credentials. Oberlander does not. You may have good grasp of the
language, but I really don't see what your credentials are. In a lot of
ways, you are an anonymouse. Is "Middius" your real name?

I didn't call on you for support, I asked your opinion. You gave it. I
don't agree with it, but that's hardly new on this newsgroup, is it.

I wouldn't call you "walking, talking crap". That's how I think of
Krooger. I think you're a crazed, possibly rabid, pit bull. I disagree
with Bobo, though -- I think Krooger is a lot more grotesque than you
are. This latest episode about your little speaker company underscores
that nicely.


Bobo, are you listening? Krooger has already claimed "been there done
that" to the question of launching an audio equipment company. I
called that bluff, and the Beast sleazed off into a dark corner of his
basement, dirty underwear and all. Now trotsky may fall flat with his
speakers, as some of you hope, but at least he's not a pathological

Middious spent so much time on RAO that he has a kind of 6th sense. Like
an animal he know before meteorologists that wind is going to change
from south to north from heat to cold.

My prediction : (LOL)
In the next days if Trotsky stay on RAO (what a pity) I predict that
Middious will be after is ass 24/24 like... Ze Pit-Bull (LOL again)

Hey Middious your life really look like a total failure...
I gess you would have been successful in politic.

That's interesting, because I've talked to numerous folks that
frequently don't know what you're on about. Bob made a stupid
statement, I called him on it, and now you've egested this mess. In
fact, I would say that if you polled 1000 people, at least ninety
percent of them would say "management oversight" meant "management
error". Agree or disagree?

In summary (my last contribution to this exchange), I am certainly not
the one to ask for a cure. I wouldn't be surprised if a competent
doctor could readily prescribe something for you, but I have no idea
what it would be.

That's weird, because I thought Mr. Zelniker was very helpful in
dispensing useful advice, from the point of view of somebody that really
knows what he's talking about. Then there's you, and your desecration
of the Christian faith. You see the distinction, don't you?

You know, you're right Krueger. This is why Middius ducked out of the
discussion when I brought up the concept of formal vs. conversational
English. What I don't get is why people come on to discusssion groups
and are afraid to discuss things. On a similar note, I thought a guy
like you that pretends to be a Christian would be prepared to have a
theological discussion about why you're such a bad Samaritan, but I was
wrong on that front to. Oh well.

He reminds me of the knight who Cleese encounters in Monty Python's Search

They do battle with sword. Cleese cuts off an arm, a leg, another arm a
torso, and finally the head at the neck. Still ensconced in it's helmet, the
disconnected head stubbornly shouts challenges to battle at Cleese, as he
rides off.

This is Trotsky. We have cleaved his head off, and it lies on the ground
shrieking that I don't have any balls.

BTW, this is why I find Krueger less offensive. At least when I hit him, he
roars. Trots just keeps up the nattering yayayayaya of a head dispossessed
of its body. It's like arguing with a vocoder chip.

Cleese *was* the knight that got hacked up to a torso and decided to call it

his arms and legs cut off.

It sounds like "making a living in audio" is a worthiness criteria for you.
I fail to see how it makes one meritorious. By itself, it means nothing.

Now that's not fair.
Either Krueger, you, or I could do what Trotsky's doing. The formulas can be
evaluated on a pocket calculator. But it's well known that the formula are
only an approximation. Professionals spend six months with sawdust flying to
work the bugs out of a design. Trotsky hasn't done that.

If Trotsky had put in the work, I would respect the effort, regardless of
how odious a guy he is. You don't seem to realize that he's skipped the
design step, skipped the elbow grease.

I gather you feel that there is some chance that Trotsky hit the right
combination, either by accident, or by some process you prefer to assume
succeeded. I'm telling you that the chance of that occurence is vanishingly
small. Compare it to teaching someone creative writing without knowing
what's in Strunk's first.

Even if he DID somehow win the Publishers Clearinghouse of speaker design,
bass reflex is notoriously sensitive to driver variations. It goes boomy/
hollow with variations that occur on a regular basis with drivers of
established quality. When John Bau, a real artist, was building the TC-50,
he tested everything, and modified the drivers, even though his design was a
much less tempermental sealed box. He could have one lucky pair, and **** up
every second unit. And Chinese drivers are all over the map. They have to be
graded.

Unfortunately, I can't hear the speakers, and nobody else can, unless they
pay out $1300 for a bad bet.
There are musicians and amateurs who have built very good speakers. It takes
them forever, but patience can replace resources.

If he had put in the elbow grease, I'd be clapping too. I would not let my
personal antipathy stand in the way. You have observed that Greg prepares
his arguments poorly, appears obtuse -- you say stupid -- and generally, is
overly verbal about things he hasn't thought out. Unfortunately, this is a
general manifestation of his personality which has extended to this latest
folly. Please think about the one or two guys who could, maybe, actually
purchase the product, be unhappy, and be out of a lot of dough. Aren't the
future victims worthy of your concern?

Criteria is plural, Bob, and "a worthiness criteria" doesn't make sense

I previously instructed you not to inquire of me for support in your

Trotsky,
Middious propose you to join the right side of the road !
In fact he proposes you to have the same behaviour than him.
Middious is a coward so he is a "follower". He follows the rule of the
larger number which is typically a coward's behaviour.
Middious you are a *COWARD*

As far as wherewithal, I have the same analytical equipment Stereophile
uses, only more of it. I use it for other purposes.

If I thought it were possible to provide better technology at a price point,
it would be worth a shot.

Unfortunately, even a guy like Vance Dickason, who wrote the book for home
builders, asserts that the chances of success, in terms of commercial
perfection, are remote, unless one spends an inordinate amount of effort.

If he has copied an existing speaker, it would have to use exactly the same
drivers.
I wonder if there's a current product which fits the description.

Unless he measures the T/S parameters of each woofer, the Q/C problems will
be severe.

However, the mere fact of running a business is not virtuous. It's neutral.
There are lots of little struggling speaker makers who deserve better.

If he had put in the elbow grease, I'd be clapping too. I would not let my
personal antipathy stand in the way. You have observed that Greg prepares
his arguments poorly, appears obtuse -- you say stupid -- and generally, is
overly verbal about things he hasn't thought out. Unfortunately, this is a
general manifestation of his personality which has extended to this latest
folly. Please think about the one or two guys who could, maybe, actually
purchase the product, be unhappy, and be out of a lot of dough. Aren't the

You know, Bob, I don't know what your specific complaint is. (Do you?)
Are you claiming that I did too good a job setting up my company, and
don't deserve the success that will undoubtedly be coming down the pike?
If not, are you saying I didn't do enough homework and hence am
destined for failure, which should be punishment enough in itself? You
constant whining about Jupiter Audio makes me think it's the former,
and, if you'll excuse another movie making term, I have to ask what your
motivation is. Another observation I have for you (I know, you're the
"writer", so you're supposed to be doing the observing) is that you
sound EXACTLY like Brian McCarty with his "fraud alerts", making you one
of the biggest hypocrites in the history of Usenet.

How do people get this ****ed up?

Yes. You are an imcompetent fool, who can't understand that I am telling him
he is an incompetent fool.
Incompetent fools should not take other people's money for equipment they
manufacture, because incompetent fools cannot make equipment competently.

That's interesting, because I put it to you that you snipped the rest of
the post because YOU'RE incompetent. For some reason, I keep coming up
against wannabe writers here on Usenet and show them systematically that
there's no aspect of the use of words they can best me with. You're
afraid to respond to my extremely valid points, because you have
difficulty coming up with a valid point of view yourself. Why not just
slink back to whatever rat-hole you crawled out of and quit while you're
behind?

Just for the sake of informing anybody who doesn't know you, who
exactly is keeping score on these games where you keep besting people?
Is there a panel of judges out in cyberspace who render their opinions
directly unto you? Or do the voices originate from somewhere else?

You can be the judge if you want, George. If you feel Bob Morion has
introduce on valid criticism with respect to me, I'd like to see what it
is. Meanwhile, I can direct you to three or four direct points I raised
that left his completely constipated.

If you could read at an adult level, you would realize that I didn't
refer specifically to him. Here, let me help you:

"... who exactly is keeping score on these games where you keep
besting people?"

You originally used plurals ("writers", "them", "they") and I
maintained the same meaning in my question ("these games", "people").

However, if you want to reverse yourself and claim you were only
talking about Bobo, now is the time to do so.

Oh, my bad, I thought you were specifically referring to the Bob Morion
phenomonon here on rao and instead you're speaking in the abstract.
Here, let me explain how Usenet works: people observe my rather pointed
remarks, and invariably try and troll me. I use whatever information I
have at hand to explain to them the various ways they are full of crap.
When they are unable to respond with even a single word, I know I've
scored. You've experienced this first hand, so you should be able to
attest to what I'm saying.

What, you want a list? Try almost everyone that has ever responded to
me. A few people--and they probably know who they are--are pretty cool
and very hard for me to say anything negative about. Others--like dave
weil, for example--have gone multiple rounds with me, but ultimately
come to a stalemate. This doesn't happen very often. Usually, I allow
people to bring out the worst in themselves, and they just escalate with
hypocritical and/or untruthful statements. Again, you've experienced
this first hand.

Once again, you've shown that you are indeed unable to read at an

No. Please take some remedial reading lessons.

The question is:

Just for the sake of informing anybody who doesn't know you, who
exactly is keeping score on these games where you keep besting people?
Is there a panel of judges out in cyberspace who render their opinions
directly unto you? Or do the voices originate from somewhere else?

If necessary, ask dave or Bruce to explain that to you.

It's happened twice, today alone, in this very thread. For the fourth
time, here's the question you keep ducking:

Just for the sake of informing anybody who doesn't know you, who
exactly is keeping score on these games where you keep besting people?
Is there a panel of judges out in cyberspace who render their opinions

You disagree with almost everybody about almost everything.

Well, at least you're finally cranking up your nerve and trying to

You skipped the "outlined" part. You may have outlined it to yourself,
in confidence or in your imagination, but not to us real people in the
real world.

Why would you be "literally speaking" when my question was figurative?
You're not insane, are you?

You're the one who makes that allegation, pussy-boy. Nobody else has
ever characterized any emails as "conciliatory". While we're on the
subject, why would anybody offer, or desire to receive, conciliation?
That part has always been Trotsky's Little Secret. Please explain now,
unless, as usual, you're unable to answer the question.

Of course not, dear thing. There there.

The latter is much closer than the former. As to a "trap", not
hardly(TM). Merely a bit of pointed sarcasm.

> What was the possible outcome of "who's keeping score?"

If you were sane, you'd realize that your constant and arbitrary
proclamations of victory are the height of foolishness. As it is,
though, you've apparently tried very hard to "make sense" of
figurative questions and interpret them "literally", including a
"literal score". All of which makes you look foolish.

I don't have "hyper fastidiousness", Mr. Language Abuse Person.

If you want to answer in a way that would please me, you could
suddenly realize, and admit to the rest of us, that your frequent
claims of victory are ludicrous, that you can barely follow any
discussions on Usenet without resorting to insults, and that most of
the time, you honestly don't know who's winning and who's losing.

Failing that, appease this! ;-)

No, that's a lie. I explained *clearly* that if I make a pointed
observation, and the observee is unable to acknowledge it, then I have
scored. I suggested that you had first hand knowledge of this. I claim
that you are now ducking the issue. It sure is hard work keeping you
entertained when Krueger isn't around for you to obsess over.

Actually, since I frequently interchange the same two words by mistake,
I don't think language skills are at issue. I claim you are lying for
trolling purposes.

Please explain what you mean in detail by the concept of "figurative
people keeping score". I claim that this is a nonsense statement.

I'm not sure. What description would you prefer: hand holding? Dick
sucking? "Conciliatory" was about the nicest way I could think of to
put it. Ain't that a bitch, I'm now frowned upon for being nice.

Maybe in your hyper fastidious mind. Or did you get e-mails from "eight
people" telling you how nice and pointed your sarcasm was?

Now that's just queer. My detractors, recently, on this group, have
been Oberlander, McKelvy, and Morion. That might as well be the three
stooges. If you are going to sit there and tell me there is a shred of
credibility between the three of them I will then call you an idiot.

Clearly I missed the point of this whole exercise. Obviously the peanut
gallery that is responsible for keeping the score around these parts are
those eight people sending you the conciliatory e-mails. I now claim
that you are a hypocrite.

Aha. So this is the mysterious scoring system.

Let me ask you something about your system: When "the observee" does
not answer your question, how do you know *why* he didn't do so? IOW,
you claim you "have scored" when somebody "is unable to answer". How
about when he chooses not to answer?

Is that a world-class bit of wordplay? To me, it reeks of cowardice
and insecurity.

That is a nonsequitur. Are you proud of your language skills, or would
you prefer to gloat about scoring?

And yet you have produced no evidence to support your claim of
conciliation, either given or requested. It exists only in your mind.

I will share something with you though. Emails that I have with other
people, insofar as they touch directly on RAO stuff, take the form of
laughing at you. (And others such as Krooger and Nousiane, of course.)
Nobody offers conciliation; we usually marvel at how far gone you are,
or make lighthearted bets about when you'll be confined in a loony
bin, or share the wish that you would either absent yourself from RAO
or drop dead. IOW, pretty much the same kind of stuff we say about
Krooger.

I will go further: I have never offered nor received any form of
conciliation in my email exchanges with other RAO participants. In
fact, sometimes I've been chided by others for not simply ignoring
you. The people who have said that sort of thing view you as pathetic
and underpowered for the exchanges you initiate.

No conciliation. Got it? None.

No, stupid. I characterized my *intent* in writing those three

more quality time with Mama Singh. Or whatever you do when you feel

I don't have the faintest idea what you're babbling about. But I'll
respond on your wavelength: I agree that those three make posts that
are largely trash. (duh-Mikey's are 100% garbage.)

However, you've been equally obnoxious and idiotic with several people
who are much more lucid and incisive, including John Atkinson, dave
weil, and Bruce Richman. John and dave in particular have been dogged
and direct, to your great detriment. The exchanges you've had with
them, much like this one, have shown you coming unglued, swatting at
flying pink dragonflies, and arbitrarily claiming victory when your
guts are spilled all over the RAO battlefield. You've seldom been
dealt with as effectively as by those two. Also, occasionally I've
tuned in to your lunatic rants on other newsgroups, and various people
there have exposed your crapola for what it is.

You mean for both spelling out what I think of you and continuing to

I've told you four times that you've had first hand experience with
this. I remember *specifically* asking you, for example, how your borg
campaign is coming along lo these many years, and got crickets chirping
as a reply. Moreover, I said that if you wanted to rid the group of
Krueger there was one way to do so, which I've already shown you:
criticize his complete and utter lack of Christian morals. You were
unable to comment on this either, other than perhaps saying there were
eight people that e-mailed you saying I was "insane". You have a very
poor showing here and I doubt you'll yet be able to comment cogently on
this.

I've already explained this at length. I'm hardly readying my posts for
publication, but if I were to do so, they would be letter perfect. You
may say, in rebuttal, that my website has some errors which I have yet
to correct, but the copy that I turned in didn't have those errors, so
I'll get around to playing copy editor sometime soon.

Hardly. You made an insidious comment, and I turned it back around on
you. I do find it curious that the euphemism "pussy" is okay, but the
euphemism "****** pile" is not, in your fragile little eggshell mind.

Both. Oh, and for your own edification, dictionary.com says you can
spell "non sequitur" as either two words or a hyphenated word, but what
the hell, it's all Greek to me, right?

That's weird, because all the players on the group have wished me well
either privately, or on the group, or both. Personally, you're either
lying, or you're talking to some very two-faced individuals, neither of
which bode well for you.

Again, that's weird, because dictionary.com says a synomnym of the
intransitive form of the word is "pacify", and that certainly seems to
be what's happening in your real or imagined e-mails. I'm starting to
get the vibe that similar to Krueger's making up the Bible's teachings
as he goes along, you do the same with dictionary definitions.

As many on this group know, it's a little hard to describe exactly
what's wrong with you. Part of it is obsessive-compulsive neurosis in
the extreme, such that if even a single *word* is used in a manner that
doesn't suit you you start screaming. But there's something else, and
it's a little hard to figure. The bottom line is that nobody knows a
whole lot about your existence, so what your specific foibles are are a
little difficult to categorize.

No, you wouldn't. You either don't reply, or you say something similar
to the above. That's when I know I've "scored".

Those are all three completely different cases. In fact, I'm not sure
if you know this, but since the world is made up of individuals, normal
humans tend to respond to them in different ways.

dave and I have largely had disagreements that are reminiscent of the
movie "Grumpy Old Men", but with Atkinson it's different. (There's that
word again!) The situation with him can largely be boiled down to the
Recommended Components List intro., and I have to say in a large part
the "sensible" guys on the group behaved abominably. I was right, they
were wrong, and instead of just admitted this and moving on, I instead
got treated to weeks and even months of wriggling. Atkinson, of course,
could've ended the wriggling with a single post, and of course did not.
In a way I don't blame him--nobody likes to have his livelihood put
under the microscope--but at some point the facts have to count for
something. Not in your Mad Hatter world, though.

That's Krooger's excuse.

How's this for hypocrisy, hypocrite: You constantly bleat about
others' lack of proficiency with language, but when called on a
blatant, stupid error that your average 8-year-old doesn't make, you
whine and say you *could* do better, but you don't care. Who are you
to judge how much others care about their errors when you don't care
about your own? That is the point, hypocrite.

Once again, you've missed the correct answer, which is that you are
mad as a hatter.

Once again, you've missed the correct explanation, which is that your
"thought" processes resemble those of a Jovian slugworm.

It's hard to express how preposterous you are. And the sad thing is
you're so ****ed in the head, you'll never catch on.

Ah, a new wrinkle to the mysterious Trotsky Scoring System. You
babble something incomprehensible, and no matter what the reply,
you've "scored".

You probably have no idea how ridiculous you are.

As the Rush song goes, "When you choose not to decide, you still have

That's because you refuse to communicate in a language normal humans can
understand. I attempted to summarize what I believe it was you were
trying to say, but apparently the summary wasn't to your liking. That
was pretty predictable.

That presupposes that somebody would give a goddamn what you were trying
to say, which is a false claim.

Then where is your answer to the question, Dr. Eggshells?

Lack of response noted.

Do you have any idea how many times you've made the absurd
accusation that this or that poster was "unable" to answer one of
your asinine questions?

Pathetic -- quoting lyrics from a silly song. By your "logic",
there is no such thing as free will. Every question is some sort
of "command" to answer, and the lack of response can only stem
from an "inability" to answer. That's totally ****ed.

And you're still unable to answer the question.

Geez, Greggy, you take my breath away. "Anybody" can understand your
insane blather? For the human race in the real world, "anybody"
means just that -- any person you might choose at random. It does
not mean "nobody", which is basically the opposite.

In the real world, nobody understands you. You are a hypocrite of
Kroogerian proportions, and everybody sees it (except you, I guess).

Yes, no doubt. I'm sure you have all the answers worked out on a
bulletin board or chalkboard or something, with flow charts and suitable
footnotes and everything. I'm sure you feel it is very interesting.

Yeah, that's just terrible. George has given me a failing grade. I'm
nonplussed.

Right back at ya, Georgie-porgie. Preposterousness is in the eye of the

You're not making sense again, George: why would you note a lack of
response if nothing can be derived from it? Takes as much time as you need.

No, but I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if you had the definitive

One reason why Middius rarely strays from RAO. He'd get the same treatment,
only with more feeling. When he tried to stray from RAO in the past, that's
what happened.
