very true
but more to the point
take note of the last one...
I was bored!

What I didn't mention was that I'm doped up
on cough syrup and anti-histamines till this
damn cold goes away...

No, I'm not making excuses
just making an excuse :-)

In case you can't tell, that was a tongue sticking out down there.

Certain statements to the list (oh, let's say, there can be a difference in
sound based on the blanks) simply means one gets crucified by list members
who would rather not agree with anyone but themselves. Most of the time
people can make kinder, more neutral statements that say what they want just
by adjusting their wording.

If any one of you, by some magical means, become fluent in Japanese and
visit some of their MD and audio-related forums, and see how carefully some
of them construct their arguments, you'll see why I'm saying all this.

And if my "light year" layman terminology troubles so many of you, I quit
this list. It's as simple as that.

Actually I think you sense the fact that on this list
we constantly debate and argue to get the facts out
vs. common misunderstandings.

fact: a light year is a unit of distance
myth: mp3 sounds just as good as Minidisc
fact: mailing lists attract arguments over all kinds of things
myth: telling someone to shove it is a mature response to discovering
  that someone might have been wrong.
fact: I hadn't posted in a while and this seemed like as good a reason as any.
myth: It was actually a good reason
fact: I'm bored!
