The article was a general info piece and not a record
review. Glad to see that you read it, though. Took years of
experience to come up with that material...

But not, as you admitted on this newsgroup a few years back, any
experience on your part of actually making recordings, or trying the
microphone arrangements you write about.

Good point, John. However, one does not need to be a football player,
or even an ex football player to be a good commentator on the game.

Of course not. But I was specifically referring to your use of the word
"experience" in the context of writing about recording techniques.
As by your own admission you have no experience in this area, surely
you admit that your usage was at best misleading and at worst dishonest?
Kind of like cutting and pasting someone else's words from an essay
and passing it off as your own work :-)
