If this doesn't make you feel like you belong to their target audience I don't know what will.

In Virginia 77% of all COVID-19 deaths are people 70 and over. So, you could say for everyone else COVID-19 is pretty much like a bad case of the flu. Agree, disagree?
As Jello Biafra (of Dead kennedy's fame) once sang "Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill The Poor" ... well, looks like CV-19 and dumb-ass politicians are doing that for us.
Also, in a much earlier posting, someone grumbled about "people who wear $10,000 watches don't do so just for the time" (or something like that). I must take exception to such a slanderous and malicious slur ... my watch cost $125000 (a bog-standard Audemars Piguet, nothing special) and it tells the time quite nicely thank you!

Well if you can afford a $125,000 watch that's nice .I hardly ever wear a watch and when I do my $150 Sieko serves me fine.I also drive a 2006 Honda Accord which I don't  gave to worry about getting scratched when I park it.I do have a stereo  system that cost me 10k and have alot of vintage audio equipment, plus albums and cds ,that fill my townhouse. I like reading the replies on this site .I consider myself somewhat knowledgeable about audio equipment having been into it for over 50 years.From the days that if you spent $1,000 you got state of the art equipment. BUT I'm not a millionaire  so ,I enjoy  what I got and read magazines and sites like this to Float my Boat.The Coronavirus has nothing what so ever to do with audio equipment.
