CAN WE AUDIOPHILES DO OUR PART?


So we're all tired of hearing about nothing but Covid-19 (or, as I term it, the C-Plague). What can we do, as audiophiles, to help with all this.
I was amazed, and delighted, when I went to the Cardas website to see that they are doing their part. Go to their website and you'll see their director, Angela Cardas, wearing a mask. If you click on the Cardas Nautilus logo in the upper left corner, you'll see pictures of people there in the factory making masks with sewing machines. I called the company to congratulate them, and spoke with a woman named Darla, who said it was their way, during this economic slump, to keep their employees working and also their way of trying to "do our part."
I'm not writing all this to advertise Cardas products. They are a very good company, but trust your ears, not anything I write, when it comes to buying their products. They do get credit, however, for helping me come to a realization that pushed me in the right direction. I called a woman I am friends with, who is 85 years old and is a good seamstress, to suggest she start making masks. She already was--and is. By phone she has organized several other women to do the same, and right now they are needing more material and elastic. I managed to gather about 50 pounds of material and am starting to gather elastic while also getting more material. But I don't sew. I can't help out with that. Any ideas as to what we--all of us who are good with our ears and focused with our budgets--can do to help out in other ways?

I realize this is an odd topic to bring to an audio forum, but it was a very socially responsible audio company that got me to thinking about it, and frankly I believe I should be socially responsible enough to do what I can to get other people to thinking about it. While also being open to other people's ideas about ways someone like me who is "just an audiophile" can help.

Thank you, in advance, for any and all ideas on this.

Sometimes it is more important to reveal the truth then to make sure every last word is spelled correctly. Very tired last night and yes dier is spelled dire. I see misspelled words & improperly formed sentences on this thread as well but if you got the time to point them out then your not concerned about this country's future and you're in denial, you can't take the truth. I can understand how some of you see this as hogwash. I'm ok with that but at least I planted a seed and maybe you will see and look at what they are not saying rather then what they are putting out which can be important as well. I talked to a friend about some of this and a lot more in the early 1990's. He  asked me what I've been smoking but then he called his brother who is a retired colonel and he confirmed that this information is correct. There is a lot more information to share but this website is not an appropriate platform for this particular subject matter.

So you don't like my theory on electrons and how they find their shortest signal path in cabling. How about this one, if you reverse your cabling they will play the music backwards. LOL

Take it outside PLEASE! It was cute for a while (a very short while) now it's just juvenile and silly. I know this makes me a new target, so go ahead, get it out of your system.

Someone mentioned listening to Chopin ( a big thumbs up) and Schubert (a thumbs up) and who the hell is Chet Baker? I am looking for the absolute best recording of Chopin's Preludes. I have Rubinstein, Algerich, and Ashkenazy. Anybody have a suggestion? Yes, I am trying to change the subject. From a sincere and humane request for ideas about how we can help people, this thread has devolved into insults, conspiracy theories and downright nastiness. Can't we all just get along?
