Why didn't you mention that Greenville didn't do level matched tests between Monster and 16 gauge? Or that Monster against more exotic cables came up same for 1 panelist? Oh... that's right... you didn't read it. ScottW Old Greenville(?) appeared to me in a dream (he's a psychiatrist by profession- dreams are his forte) and said to tell you that anyone level matching speakers for 0,04 db difference is sort of, kind of ...shall we say ...no I can't bring myself to repeat it.. Can't get your facts straight... again. .04 db was FR error. What was the insertion loss? You saved the file didn't you ludo? Or do you need another half hour on your modem to figure out your mistake? ScottW ============================================= Out of Scottie's album of moronic snares: .. Can't get your facts straight... again. .04 db was FR error. What was the insertion loss? THE INSERTION LOSS WAS 0,16 OF A DB. REPEAT 0,16 OF A DB. Even dogs may have difficulty hearing it. Who remembers figures like 0,16 of a db? Who cares? Answer: Moronic snare layers think they got something to lie about in the future just because no one will remember. Ludovic Mirabel I answered it previously, a little more politely , but the answer got lost in the shuffle. Since then - as I foresaw- the thing kept on about my "lies" .. . |

Why is the turbidity in the St. Clair River so high... pollution, high volume? Saint Mary’s River by comparison is pristine. Lake Huron and Lake St Clair are sandy in that area. The St Clair river has a lot of sandy bottom. Part of the appearance of turbidity in some places is actually the shallow sandy bottom showing through. Also, some of the the sand gets picked up by the water. This is especially true when its stormy or where the current is swift. BTW Lake Superior is fairly turbid where the shore is sandy, especially when the water is stirred up by the weather. Especially true where we hiked this fall between Grand Marais and the Two Hearted River. We had a gale one night. We filtered our drinking water and cleaned the filter maybe three times in 8 days. AFAIK the Saint Mary's river has rock bottom and shore upstream by Superior where its generally clear, but it gets more turbid as it approaches Drummond Island and Lake Huron. |

Then get a few meters of RG58U coax, and some WBT connectors with twistable surround that will clamp on the receptacle. A 1 meter stereo pair will set you back about $26 (with the connectors being about $8 each). -- - Never argue with idiots, they drag you down their level and beat you with experience. - |

Too stiff and didn't sound any different so I put 'em in my box o spare cables and there they rest to this day ![]() ScottW Scottie accused me of lying about Greenhill's ABX cable comparison in 1983. Greenhill compared an early Master cable against 16g zipcord. .. Greenhill did not give a diameter for the Master cable but I assumed that if for no other reason that objectivist would not falsify the data to favour the proprietary Master (Remember? "Wire is wire" is an article of faith in the Chapel. I assumed the cables were of the same diameter= functionally identical. Scottie calculalated the monster gauge at 12 ( "or maybe 14"). He said I was "lying" when I said that 16g zipcord that Greenhill used and Master cable were equal ( same diameter, functionally identical,whatever) I reread Greenhill and found that the frequency response difference between the two was all of 0,04 db. Yes, 0,04.!!! Scottie had an answer: Can't get your facts straight... again. .04 db was FR error. What was the insertion loss? ..I answered: "Out of Scottie's album of moronic snares: "THE INSERTION LOSS WAS 0,16 OF A DB. REPEAT 0,16 OF A DB. Even dogs may have difficulty hearing it. Who remembers figures like 0,16 of a db? Who cares? Moronic snare layers think they got something to lie about in the future just because no one will remember". I apologise for going on about this but I want a to have a record. To me accusation of lying, RAO or not, is a serious matter As I foresaw Scottie is letting sleeping dogs lie waiting in ambush to pop up when details are forgotten and he can restart. He has done this several times before in several different threads. It seems to be his internet technique. Ludovic Mirabel |

I've canoed the area between the Sault and Neebish Island. Near the locks the bottom is blasted rock and the channel is very narrow in spots. Carriers pass with only a few feet under the keel.

Haven't used a tent in about ten years and don't miss it one bit. ;-) http://www.keystone-cougar.com/index...1EFS&year=2006 We are currently planning to return this summer for a liesurly canoe trip along the Superior shore, particularly the Gargantua area, in August before the lake turns nasty. Pukaskwa National Park http://canadianparks.com/ontario/pukasnp/index.htm Thinking about it. If you like inland waterway canoeing and less distance to drive than Pukaskwa there is The Shoals Provincial Park. Located between Wawa and Chapleau. http://www.ontarioparks.com/english/shoa.html OTOH, if you really want to get from it all there's Missinaibi Provincial Park. Located in the largest game preserve in North America (99,000 hectares). The Missinaibi runs northward to the Moose River (James Bay). It's a transition zone between boreal forest to lowland muskeg. The bear pressure was intense, with leaches and windy conditions to contend with. There are some major pictographs and relics of logging and fur trade to be seen. Best to carry a short wave radio or Emergency transmitter if you have one or bring a BIG boat. ![]() http://www.ontarioparks.com/english/miss.html Our favorite Canadian park: http://www.ontarioparks.com/English/quet.html Thanks... I'll check it out. Lots of people in the park? |

The real reason Krooger postures as a hardcore outdoorsborg is because he can't afford to buy an RV. -- A day without Krooger is like a day without arsenic. |
