yes, thought the post about Bub was a bit harsh.
The topic of wire in plastic ... it's nothing worth taking personally... expensive wire or cheap - it's nothing personal.
Have fun, debate, no need for harsh words.
Hi Bottleneck
My comments about bub are factual and not harsh, they could be much harsher. I was being very restrained. Frankly it would not matter on what tropic was being discussed James is always true to form i.e. Mr negativity. My comments were born out of frustration about his continuing behaviour on the forum and not specifically about his well known views (though no one knows how he formed them) about cables mains or other wise. He can't leave it alone and let others have an open minded discussion in peace.
He is a schoolyard bully and ZG is his schoolyard. I have no issue with qualified discussion on any topic, rare if at all in James contributions other than we who hear what he can't are deluded or suffering from THE PLACEBOOOO EFFECT. It may just be the case that we are right and he is wrong. Just for the record challenging bad behaviour is seen as a positive by most faiths and none bub, and challenging a bully like you should happen.
I care about ZG and guys like you but it makes me very sad when I read the same old same old from James, who is entitled to his opinion but for once he could qualify it; share his wealth of experience and how he got his opinions but when asked he never explains. To paraphrase him, he felt it was a waste of time to explain himself to the deluded. How can anyone learn from his valid experiences, when he wont ever explain himself.
Its down to him that I can't be bothered posting here any more and I suspect that many others have voted with their feet too, and gone else where.
My response here was born out of total exasperation with him trotting out his usual diatribe....no explanation just deflection into his pat answers which are not answers but attacks masquerading as well once again read "Erm. Gravity hasn't been "explained". There is a theory but no "explanation". But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist, and no sniggering necessary. People might snigger if you denied that gravity existed.
The explanation for why people think they hear differences in mains cables is the placebo effect - they expect to, so they do. There has never been any objective difference shown."
Frankly this additional post is probably a waste of time on my part he won't change and I will continue to watch sadly from the side lines as a forum I loved has to put up with the above.
I had hoped he might rise above his norm, having been challenged about his behaviour on this forum,but no.....
