I don't think either of you are insane. I think you are two autistic
people who, like many other autistic people, are attracted to Usenet
because you don't have to admit you're autistic to participate. In
real life, most people can talk to autistic people and figure out
pretty quickly that something's amiss. For instance, I met Scott in
person a few times, and he has this way of pontificating about some
arcane point while looking off into space as if he forgets that other
people are around. he also has a problem with eye contact, which is
common among people with Aspergers. And whenever Art and I would be
making jokes and laughing, Scott would merely sit there, stone-faced.


*That's how sane people deal with insane people on Usenet.

Not really. For instance, Arny was crazy and probably suffered from at
least two serious personality disorders. Some people ignored him, some
people taunted him but I think most "sane" people wanted him to leave
and expressed their desire for him to do that. You see. when there's a
crazy person in the room, some sane people ignore them, and others try
to do something about it. In other words, there is more than one
"sane" response to a crazy person. Your insistence that there's only
one is wrong...and just plain dumb.


*Anyone with sense knows that you don't argue with crazy people. That
makes you crazier than they are. They don't know better, you

Unless, of course, a crazy person starts to deface, destroy or damage.
Then it's time to step in and take them out.

Scott is not autistic, it is the farthest thing from the truth,
so you should get off that schtick, and if you still want to
be critical of him, "at least" move on to playing off of something
more realistic,
not like there aren't any other of his foibles to play off of.
"At least" when Scott vamps on you, it is more reality based,
though he hasn't the creative mind i find in you.

Just some constructive criticism, to keep the entertainment
value of this group on a consistently high plane.

Someone told me a few years ago that Scott had Aspergers. Scott
himself has not denied this. His posting behaviors support this, as
confirmed by two behavior therapists. Since I have spent the last few
years working as an advocate for special needs children, I can tell
you that Scott's behaviors both in person and online are well within
the parameters of ASD. A normal person doesn't spam discussion groups
with OT political posts and then duck out when outmatched and
outsmarted.

At the same time, he felt it necessary to make fun of my "special
needs" child on several occasions while suffering from the same
disorder. If he was honest and forthcoming about all of this, there
wouldn't be a problem. But Scott is a tremendous hypocrite, one of the
more flagrant I've ever seen.

And I take exception to your comment that Scott's "vamps" are more
"reality-based" when he has consistently lied about me and my family
on countless occasions. If you think I'm the bad guy here, remember
that Scott always struck first. I ignored him on RAO for many years
while people were emailing me saying, "How can you be friends with
this idiot?" I didn't turn on him until he started saying I was an
audio fraud, or he started talking about my family and personal life.

because you don't have to admit you're autistic to participate. In
real life, most people can talk to autistic people and figure out
pretty quickly that something's amiss. For instance, I met Scott in
person a few times, and he has this way of pontificating about some
arcane point while looking off into space as if he forgets that other
people are around. he also has a problem with eye contact, which is
common among people with Aspergers. And whenever Art and I would be
making jokes and laughing, Scott would merely sit there, stone-faced.

*That's how sane people deal with insane people on Usenet.

Not really. For instance, Arny was crazy and probably suffered from at
least two serious personality disorders. Some people ignored him, some
people taunted him but I think most "sane" people wanted him to leave
and expressed their desire for him to do that. You see. when there's a
crazy person in the room, some sane people ignore them, and others try
to do something about it. In other words, there is more than one
"sane" response to a crazy person. Your insistence that there's only
one is wrong...and just plain dumb.

*Anyone with sense knows that you don't argue with crazy people.. That
makes you crazier than they are. They don't know better, you
supposedly do.

Unless, of course, a crazy person starts to deface, destroy or damage.
Then it's time to step in and take them out.

good riddance to Arny- Hide quoted text -

Well, that's what Bratzi just did to Shhh! for asking a perfectly
reasonable question. He called him an idiot and an imbecile.

"at least" Bratzi didn't invalidate his right to having an opinion
without succumbing to an eye gouging.

It isn't that Bratzi doesn't want to, it's just that he hasn't gotten
to any of the Mengele books in his personal library yet.

I had no problem dealing with Arny. He was fun to argue with because
he had some legitimate technical background. He wrote several articles
for DCHA in the TAA salad days before his DBT fetish caused a breakup.
DCHA privately thought (as best I could determine) that the DBT people
were technically right but that DBT was church-wrecking theology-and
DCHA was a churchman by training and career. Tactically I agreed with
this decision then and now.

So I find your premise that your preference was invalidated with

wasted the time of so many people here by engaging them in nonsensical
arguments and not revealing that you're autistic. You should come with
a warning label: I AM AUTISTIC, SO I CANNOT RESPOND TO IRONY,
SUBTLETY, SARCASM, WORDPLAY, HUMOR OR EMOTION. PROCEED WITH CAUTION..

Scott is not autistic, it is the farthest thing from the truth,
so you should get off that schtick, and if you still want to
be critical of him, "at least" move on to playing off of something
more realistic,
not like there aren't any other of his foibles to play off of.
"At least" when Scott vamps on you, it is more reality based,
though he hasn't the creative mind i find in you.

insane, you'd simply killfile us and move on.

I don't think either of you are insane. I think you are two autistic
people who, like many other autistic people, are attracted to Usenet
because you don't have to admit you're autistic to participate. In
real life, most people can talk to autistic people and figure out
pretty quickly that something's amiss. For instance, I met Scott in
person a few times, and he has this way of pontificating about some
arcane point while looking off into space as if he forgets that other
people are around. he also has a problem with eye contact, which is
common among people with Aspergers. And whenever Art and I would be
making jokes and laughing, Scott would merely sit there, stone-faced.

*That's how sane people deal with insane people on Usenet.

Not really. For instance, Arny was crazy and probably suffered from at
least two serious personality disorders. Some people ignored him, some
people taunted him but I think most "sane" people wanted him to leave
and expressed their desire for him to do that. You see. when there's a
crazy person in the room, some sane people ignore them, and others try
to do something about it. In other words, there is more than one
"sane" response to a crazy person. Your insistence that there's only
one is wrong...and just plain dumb.

*Anyone with sense knows that you don't argue with crazy people. That
makes you crazier than they are. They don't know better, you
supposedly do.

Unless, of course, a crazy person starts to deface, destroy or damage.
Then it's time to step in and take them out.

I like the sound analog and tube audio.
It's great not being shouted down by some asshole for saying that.
good riddance to Arny

*You really felt "shouted down" by Arny on usenet? *I find that odd.

Arny shouted down

*If you think anyone can "shout down" anyone on RAO,
it only tells me you hold the readers of this group in pretty low
regard.

anyone with a differing opinion, trying' to
invalidate such opinions

*such is the nature of most debates on differing opinions.

by demanding DBT's, so he turned the subject of every discussion not a
DBT tirade.

*Which then spun into a decade long string of anti-Arny tirade on
pretty disgusting levels.

*The funny part of your argument is this....Arny won't argue that many
high (relative to SS)
distortion tube based systems aren't audibly different than most SS
systems.
He won't argue that most analog sources and especially vinyl sources
aren't audibly different
than digital sources.....so your premise of liking the sound of tubes
and analog as a personal
preference isn't something Arny would try to refute with DBTs.

So I find your premise that your preference was invalidated with
demands of DBTs at odds with the facts.

When was the last time your eyes were gouged.
Better yet, when was the FIRST time.
HAve your empty eye sockets lost their virginity yet?

I don't feel the need to prove anything to myself
or the need to overcome personal bias with DBTs.
But when some audiophool wants to spout some BS...
I'm not going to object to calls for some evidence either.

Well, the evidence would be the fact that your systems always sound
terrible, and mine didn't. And if there were combinations that didn't
quite work, it was always equipment I had in for review, and not my
actual reference systems.

The Orions probably make your system sound better than ever before,
but the simple truth is that you don't have the equipment to bring out
the best of the Orions. An old Yamaha preamp, a pair of Quad ESLs set
on unstable wooden stools and of course your POS Mitsubishi TT...the
evidence is overwhleming that you are unable to assemble a nice-
sounding system. Of course you hide behind specs and engineering, but
it still lets you down.

If you and Scott were less autistic, you guys would still be the

Let me apologize for Marc to any autistic persons or parents/relatives

Phillips really doesn't know what a crass ass he is.

Once again YOUR disability has let you down. My problem isn't that you
and Bret are autistic. It's that you two fail to admit it, and
perfectly reasonable people get sucked into arguments with you without
being properly informed about your condition. That's very dishonest.

Wow...you ****ed up again, Scott. Amazing.

This is a lie. Anybody who said they thought tubes or vinyl sounded
better than SS or CD was immediately hooted down.
