I strongly prefer VD over VA.


And, I strongly prefer silver cars over any other color, especially
red.


But, my preference reflects my prejudice, just as your immeasurable,
uninformed statement reflects your prejudice.


The audio-artifacts specfic to an analog, VD, negative, B&W, optical
soundtrack are a mouth-watering, delicious, paradisiacal crackling
[due to black spots on the film] similar the baking of garlic bread in
a clay oven full of hot bituminous coals.

The fart of a magnetic, digital, VA, positive, and/or color soundtrack
is a hellish stink of stinky, thick, foamy, tickly, itchy, hissy,
terrifying, disgusting, and annoying human kakaa-gas of a human who
eats stale fat-free cheddar cheese, sticky fig newtons, cornstarch,
canned over-ripe mangoes, rotten lentils, and decaying cauliflower.


You see what you get for feeding the village idiot?


Too bad, too. Because by feigning real interest in the subject he got some
truly interesting, historical and technical responses. I wonder if he read
and understood them. I doubt it, although I got something out of it, so I
guess it wasn't a total loss (for me anyway).
