History of the "aspirin tweak" ???

[Robert Morein]

"Soundhasprioity" has squandered his trust with me, but I am still curious
as to the origin of the "aspirin tweak", which seems to involve placing an
aspirin on top of a speaker cabinet.

When was this first mentioned?
Does anyone have any idea as to who the author was?
Was the tweak first offered in good faith, or as a deliberate intent to
create an "urban legend" ?

You probably need an aspirin weighing at least 2 lbs, and ionized somehow
so it starts to emit small amounts of benzene, which, when you inhale in
small amounts, might make you dizzy.

I tend to agree. However, urban legends, and rumors in general, are
interesting. I'm curious about the origin. I seem to dimly recall that it
was originally given as an example of a ridiculous tweak; one that could not
possibly work.

When soldering litz wire, it's recommended to keep the wire attached
to an aspirin (must be Bayer!) .
The heat from the iron will cause gases to emit from the aspirin, said
gases will desintegrate the cotton isolation, so that the inner copper
wire can be soldered upon.

That probably gave the initial tweak-sayer the idea.
But someone expounded it as an audio tweak. Who?

NoNoNo... it must be salicylic acid ... aspirin is only converted to
pain reliever in the intestine... but salicylic acid is the real pain
killer and it can act as mild acid flux. :).
Wart remover will do in a pinch.

So Sound.... you ever put salicylic acid on your tweeters?
Pain free is fatigue free.

I called you to apologize to you directly, Bob. What MORE do you want?
You want me to go on national tv and say that I was sorry for making
the unpardonable mistake of mentioning that you had tried the L-shape
tweak and found it worked for you?

You telling me on the phone that you have a "reputation to protect" and
all of that, is still not something that I feel I should have known.
You seem to think I'm supposed to know all these things about you,
your background history. But whether you believe me or not, I didn't
know anything about your background beyond what I picked up in a couple
of weeks here. So I could not have just assumed, as you believe I
should have, that you did not want it known by anyone that you find my
tweaks do work.

I think for both our sake, we should drop the subject. You can lie
about it if you want, everyone else lies around here, but there's no
use flogging a dead horse, is there.

Oh. I think I know this one...

Yup! I do!

Let me see... I remember this one from my old college days... Wait... I
think... oh yes, I remember. I'll give you a hint: it's _not_ "urban
legend"!

It is in fact exactly the same motivation used for all the tweaks that
I offered the group since coming here. Which as a testament to their
open-mindedness and desire to improve their sound systems, all of RAO
chose to **** on. (Well, except those that didn't have the balls to
admit they tried the tweaks. I won't mention names but... you know who
you are!).

You mean like the urban legend that the study of music reproduction
starts and ends under the laws of Newtonian physics?

I think I recall that as well. Some nutcase first mentioned it on the
groups in this old chestnut:
http://groups.google.com/group/rec.audio.opinion/msg/47914701e61e9295?dmode=source

Which of course, was immediately disregarded without evidence or trial,
as an example of a ridiculous tweak, one that could not possibly work.
As all "freako tweako" tweaks that challenge our closed belief systems
too strongly, should be disregarded.

I don't know about you, but I think that any insane tweak freak that
tries to challenge MY closed belief systems, _my_ intellect, or run up
against _my_ narrow limits of intellectual tolerance or _my_ pervasive
ignorance, should be tarred, feathered and driven out of town on a
rail. And if he has the cheek to point out what a stupid, ignorant,
closed-minded, herd-following sheep that I am for treating his ideas
with total disregard, and dismissing them without evidence or trial,
then I'll smack him with a bunch of fives, I will. And _then_ I will
have him tarred, feathered and driven out of town on a rail.

Ah yes... the bitter ex-tweako freako reveals his jealousy and
prejudice once again. Let me guess... you wish YOU were the f**** crook
who developed the tweak, don't you? Sorry, you're not smart enough to
tie your shoelaces, Goofball. As such, you're not fit to lick his
boots, you bitter, dumb wannabe.

Why don't you tell us all exactly what are these failed tweaks of
yours, so that I may ridicule them to my heart's delight, as you do
with the tweaks I've posted? You've certainly alluded to them enough
times, as though I should know. But not once have you ever posted an
example of an actual tweak that you alleged you had tried to market. Or
don't you have the balls to have your failed tweaks mocked and
ridiculed?

That must be why you're so angry with me, and everyone else who sells
tweaks, that YOU didn't invent! LOL!

As you can see in the example above of the usual stupid, trite and
predictable mocking responses any time you mention serious ideas that
challenge the insecurities of insecure people, this is the level of
intelligent discussion that you can expect to achieve on this group of
closed-minded fools. And these are the people who's respect you so
value that you were ashamed to admit to them that you were open minded
enough to try one of my tweaks?? Frankly, I think you have a skewed
system of priorities. The *only* intelligent and interesting
discussions about audio currently on RAO were between us in private.
And you blew that when you called me a liar. Good luck trying to get
any serious answers to your questions from this lot of ignorant
know-nothing fools!

You just don't get it, do you?
You are still trying to ride the high horse, but when you lied about what I

I think Shovels is just confused. He is so overwrought that he replied to
one of my posts as if it were yours. Then, in another post, he first
remembered that I said I tried his aspirin-and-animal-picture tweak, and
in the next paragraph contradicted himself.

Pity the witch doctor. He may have smoked too much peyote, or peat moss,
or whatever they have in Soggy Olde Englande.

No you don't Rudy, you're just using every opportunity to make a fool
of me and my opinions .

Just admit that you're not sincere Rudy, and that you're only here to
start attack threads on people you don't even know and on tweaks you
never tried, let alone understand the tiniest bit about..

Did you actually *try* to call your dealer?
If not, refrain from commenting on something you haven't got the

Sorry, but nobody on RAO accepts that robots are capable of amusement.

Didn't you say that you sold tweaks? Sure you did. You said you would
supply references to them if I was interested. I remember asking you
for them, and then a funny thing happened: your balls shrivelled up at
the thought of me ridiculing you over your failed tweaks. Did you find
an ounce of courage today, Goofball? Or are you so ashamed of your
commercial tweaks, you'd rather they died withyou?

pathological liars do, isn't it? One day I'm a "horrible evil man",

since one of your first claims is a lie. If I'm the person in that
photo that you endearingly refer to as "Shovels", show your factual
evidence (not mindless conjecture). Otherwise, the fact that you lied
about that as well, stands.

Sorry, you're the one that's confused. This is what _you_ did, when you
responded to a post I was writing to Goofball, under the mistaken
impression that it was to you. And why on earth would I be overwrought
at your RAO-wide meltdown because I mentioned that you were open-minded
enough to try the L-shape tweak? Or in your multiple paranoid
conspiracy theories about me, do you think I'm your mother? Would she
be overwrought at you flailing all about the place like a madman?

>Then, in another post, he first remembered that I said I tried his aspirin-and-animal-picture tweak, >and in the next paragraph contradicted himself.

I think your head must still be reeling from the meds, Robert. Or this
is yet ANOTHER lie from you.
What is it with you and lies, exactly? Here's another lie you made to
me on this group, about me having sold you a marker to perform the
L-shape tweak (when I offered to give you one for free):

Robert Morein lied:

"I already have a marker. It doesn't' work. You don't have to "sell"
me
another, you crook."

No, YOU are the liar, Robert Morein.

No, YOU are the liar, Robert Morein.

No, YOU are the scum that can't ride the high horse, Robert Morein.

No, YOU lied again, Robert Morein.

I doubt anyone could possibly be suffering as much as you. You seem to
be suffering so much, you're mumbling incoherencies now. You lie so
much, you don't even know whether you're Jekyll or Hyde any longer. You
play out so many high dramas, you sound like a failed cabaret singer.

And all this because you didn't want to admit that you tried one of my
tweaks? It is to laugh!

Be keep on Mr. Morein. Keep on with your childish schoolyard threats,
lies and attack threads. You're a three ring circus and a sideshow
freak attraction, all for one great combo price. (grabs beer and

Aspirin= proprietary name given by Bayer to salicylic acid.
Aspirin=salicylic acid.
NonBayer aspirin= salicylic acid (Bayer's patent expired).
"Wart remover"= salicylic acid= aspirin
And now for a physiology lesson from the audio expert ScottW:

Can't find anything about "mild acid flux" in
biochemistry
textbooks. Must be something from the short course of science for
aspiring ambulance chasers.
All this science would surely leave the jury speechless.

We're not talking about hutzpah. We already know that this

ha haha funny joke is well in keeping. We're talking about insolent
ponti-
ficating about things this RAO all-round lecturer knows zero about.
Once tried it becomes a habit.and metastasises from nonaudio to non-
politics, nonbiochemistry and nonmedicine.
The last expert on "flux" in medicine was an "animal

and "flux" hypnotist 200 years ago, who charmed the contemporary
hostesses. .
Our subject has all the necessaries to restart the flux
sub-division of quackery. Only in America...

I've been following this topic from the beginning, I took some aspirin
earlier, and now seem to be experiencing acid reflux.
Wouldn't that have started as acid flux?

I read your soldering chart with interest.
Which soldering iron would you advise a
med. student to buy for his future career
in ulcer treatment? Same time you could
explain to him about "acid flux in the
intestine". Bet you they never
heard the word from their lecturers.
Joking apart let me try to,however
insignificantly, to encroach on the vast
regions of your ignorance so that in the
future you make a fool of yourself a shade
less often. Just a shade mind you. I make
myself no illusions. Your compulsion to
spout rubbish about things you know zilch
about is too deeply-rooted.
The branch of chemistry that medicine
bases itself on is called biochemistry. Bios-
means "life" in classical Greek (like in
"biology"). Chemistry of living organisms-
get it? Soldering is an application of
INORGANIC chemistry. Different science
different terminology. "Flux" does not
belong in biochemistry.

Another short lesson; :Bovine Enceph. is
transmitted one way only:
by eating the infected meat. I spent one
year in N.Y. and thankfully, though
unusually, I never got mugged
(and cannibalised?)
Not wanting to tempt my luck I went
as far as I could get away from N.Y.
(Tokyo next stop) to Vancouver B,C.
and stayed here.
Waiting for your next funny and original,
(kindergarten style) pun on my name.

Average IQ's are in the majority,

That's what makes them average!
They are proximate to both the mean and the median
