It looks like a debate to me.

The only question posed was whether I'm alone in being more interested in a live debate about amp designs by amp designers. (NOT tubed vs ss since the panel members are not even determined yet.)The answer has been basically yes. I have no problem with that.
Agonners have commented that they prefer recorded over live as in their recorded responses and published studies. And some have stated that they trust forum members views over professionals, apparently due to some paranoia in believing that designers are charlatans and thieves. Except, of course, those designers that created their owned stuff.

Axpona 20 has been rescheduled if not cancelled.
I am NOT interested enough in it to forgo a planned weekend with grandkids.

I respect all opinions regarding facts.Not so much regarding fantasies, lies and vitriol.

oldhvymec I welcome your input any time.
However I recommend cannabis in lieu of alcohol for "getting along."
It works better for me.

Well I happen to agree, we are on the same page there. As for the rest I was premature in my assumption it was SS vs Valve. I'm still not quite sure what the forum is for.  But here is the good news. I'm a good sport, let me read and learn. Sounds like politics in one form or another.

Respectfully and with regard

I didn't pay attention to who did it, I just saw bad assumptions everywhere. In the heat of defense I know I made a few.
You'r'e cool.  Stay well.
Groet.
