Usenet is dying.



No, but RAO is pretty dead as audio groups go.



I know you're still hoping to be noticed by the "real
audio guys" by working fiercely on your "usenet career",



You're delusional, Sander.



Unlike you, I'm willing to concede that fact.


but if you'd care to look outside your little scope of
vision, you'd notice that web-based forums are far more
active places.



Been there, done that probably long before you did, Sander. Unlike you, I
can tell the difference between quantity and quality.



Yes, like why needing 1200 watts.ch. in a home audio system, versus a
nicely built 100 watts amp that is enough for 99.9 % of all speakers.
Certain Infinity speakers are excluded, just ask Trevor.


Not that RAO has much
of either, but what do you expect from a group that is dominated by you and
your kind of ilk?



RAO dominated by me? Hardly. I rarely post here anymore, and most
posts are crossposted from RATubes.
My "ilk"? You mean people like Graham or Peter Wieck, who are
gainfully employed or self-employed in the field of audio, a field you
so desperately want to belong to that you devote large parts of your
time to post to Usenet?

I simply don't have the time (or rather: don't want to make time) for
wading through thousands of messages about US politics and the
occasional snot post by "you and your ilk"about tube and vinyl bigots,
thank you very much.


I just stop by every now and then and throw out some
rotten boney meat for the local pack of mad dogs to gnaw on. Enjoy this
bone, Sander.



I'd prefer to gnaw on a rotten meaty bone any day than to become as
bitter and self-pitying as you seem to be, Arny.
