Hello, Nobodies:

Well, time to get back to work on expanding my woodworking
shop out in the back yard. (Framed it last week and put the
roof on over the weekend. Now, on to covering the wall
areas, installing the benches and electric lines, and then
moving some tools into the new area. When I need a break
from all of this I will do some listening with that $3000+
amp I am reviewing.

My current fun and projects notwithstanding, I will leave it
to you morons to mull over the fact that my fifth book just
made it into print.

Yuk, yuk, yuk.

What do you make with all that equipment, Howard? Wooden ears?

Or tin?

Fifth book, Howard. But if you only contribute 10% to each book as you
admit you did to your last, that only makes half a book in total. Not
very good, Howard. Nothing to yuk about.

Yuk, yuk, yuk.

I said nothing to yuk about.

Howard Ferstler

Yes, we know. We saw it in print.

Howard,

Did you *ever* convert one of the "loonies" into your point of view?


You're asking too much from howard, Mr. Sander deWaal. How can someone
"convert" another to beleive in something else then his own ears, his
very own perceptions?

So am I to go get some yamaha naturally metallic sounding receiver, hook
it up, and go "hmmm ... that,
yuk-yuk-yuk-I-wrote-a-boouuoook-nana-nana-naaaaaa-na-ferstler retard
*does* have a point there, this *does* sound the same with my densen,
though it was never designed to achieve the same musicality, though it
was never designed with sound quality as its top priority, and though it
sounds way different than the densen, I still have the strange
inclination to beleive in this village idiot rather then my own ears."

The question begs for repetition, also for the borg-likes of howard and
other kroogaborg-like entities: "How can someone "convert" another to
beleive in something else then his own ears, his very own perceptions?"

Now these clownish thingies try to convince us that the "good looks,
high price, bragging factors, etc" of high end audio gear make them
sound better to our ears. So this guy designs a mediocre amp (possibly a
"piece of junk" as the idiot puts it), but puts a heavy, brushed, black
aluminum faceplate on it and does away with tone controls, speaker
switches, etc, and just the *sight* of this convinces me to listen to my
eyes rather then my ears... Yeah right.

Check out the title page. After the main editor's name comes
mine as technical editor. The other contributors are listed
further into the book(s).

Four books under my name, plus a main title header in a
fifth. How many have you done, pal?

Go to Google and punch in my name. Probably over 1,000 hits.
Now punch in your name.

Well, thank you, Howard.

Only once for an hour or two every three or four days. This
is in contrast to most of the tweakos, who seem to be joined
at the head to their computers.

How many Usenet posts have you made in your life Howard? Be honest.... for a
change.

Here I am after several days. (I just installed a
floor-standing drill press in my expanded shop and have been
playing with a really good new random orbit sanding
machine.) I am sure my numbers fall short of yours, slick,
particularly this year.

Get a life.

Damn, I'm just overtaken with jealousy. Not.

So you can't count either. But what about previous years? Are you trying to
forget your past? I understand that sentiment in your case.



Get a life.


Get a job.

No doubt your idea of what it means to use neat tools
involves a few minutes alone in the john.

Get a life.

Don't need one.

PS: I still think you are a phony and there is no way I can
see for you to prove otherwise.

PPS: the drill press is terrific. Now installing new doors
throughout the house, by the way.

I am sure that your idea of working with tools involves a
daily vist to a quiet place to play with yours.

That is just a bizarre comment. I'd ask what you were trying to imply but I am
sure it's disgusting.

Lucky for you some one left you with the money they earned.

But you are a very stupid person.

Woohoo. Time for you to break out that case of Old Milwakee. "It don't get no

Vist? Do you mean visit or vice?

Anyway, in my occupation, I use many impressive and expensive tools. I use
everything from a $6000 Wirescope tester to a $12 pair of electrician's snips.
I own thousands of dollars worth of power tools from Milwaukee, Dewalt, and
Mikita.

In other words, I'm a pro, and you're a tool.

It's funny to watch your belief systems implode like this.
