Of course you have the right to do so. But also you owe it to your own
sense of ethics to thoroughly investigate this issue before you take any
more concrete action against Richard Graham.

Somehow, I don't find the phrase "sense of ethics" and "Robert Morein"
to go together.

And Robert, don't be an
"unchangable", really, I mean no disresopect and all, but there are some
people on the usenet that just stick and stick to a position and never
even think of giving an inch, even if the coordinates of the intial
position they refuse the budge an inch from have changed and arm and a
leg in time, as it were. Arny comes to mind... Some of the more
religious fanatics I've slapped around at my time, comes to mind.

Some of the more religious fanatics that *I* have slapped around in my
time comes to mind as well. And yes, Arny's one of them. So again, what
you've said here is really worth saying, and I fully concur. It's the
reason why I find these groups, while they can provide some means of
venting frustrations or whatever, are ultimately boring experiences, on
an intellectual level. I mean the fact that I have rarely ever seen any
regular change their ideological positions. And I'm sorry but I've had
many legitimate conversations with Morein on the theories behind my
tweaks, and he never really impressed me as being wise enough to change
his wrongful positions on audio.

I know very well that I could sit here and type out debates for weeks,
months, even YEARS with Mad Morein, Powell, Steven Sullivan or Ludovic
on quantum mechanics and morphic resonance. I could bring out Rupert
Sheldrake and have HIM explain in person on RAO just why these three
"scientists" are dead wrong in their assumptions about the theories. It
wouldn't matter. They're dogmatists. They're in it simply for the
politics, not for the truth about audio. That's what you need to
understand. I already understand it because I saw it happening for
years with others. Engineers are the worst when it comes to dogmatic
ideology. Sander's an exception because he's a tweaker at heart, and
maybe even because he's a European, and they're "smarter" (more
progressive) than the Americans. But the two American audio engineers
here? Never! While they may differ on ABX rituals and details like
that, they both share the same fanatic devotion to their audio
religions. You have to remember that having them believe in a single
one of my tweaks, means that everything they thought they knew about
audio would have to be thrown out.

I do suggest you go down the same investigative path I went before you
make up your mind to do things irreversible, whatever they may be. And
yes, I am not just talking about the investigation of the SHP identity...

He'll investigate my ISP, Richard Graham's relationship with PWB, he'll
telephone Richard Graham's colleagues in London at NHS and Priory (as
he has admitted doing), he'll email Graham, he'll investigate one study
after another to support his claims that I'm a "shill" and a "Richard
Graham", but I'll tell you now, the last thing Bob will do is
investigate whether I really am Graham. It's not in Crazy Bob's
interest to do so, because he simply wants to rally against my audio
ideas, pointe finale. Because that's what threatens -him- and -his-
financial interests.
