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.

isochronism, you could be correct as the military has forgot to mention they own a few of them(UFOs) I wonder who gave them this advanced technology?
Mahgistor just because you don't believe in hell doesn't mean its going to cease to exist for your convenience.

Covid 19 ( maybe the grand illusion) but many are not coping very well with the lock down. Every where there are groups of people defying safety measures of this virus and naturally the news increases coverage of these areas and are reporting more cases of Covid 19. The food supply is slowly diminishing because a few reported cases in food packing plants as well as meat packing plants, shutting these operations down for safety in some states.( Henry Kissinger) said if you control the food supply you can control the entire world The economy can not take too many more business closures especially small businesses.  If the entire economy is destroyed each and every one of us are going to be negatively impacted in ways you can't imagine, making the Great Depression look like a walk in the park, lets hope this does not happen. I would much favor opening all business but practicing safety.


thecarpathion. I seen you unloading that poor bigfoot in the middle of the night, how dare you, you've been caught man!
I don't think they (the Russians) have to lower the microphone that far to hear what they recorded. Sound travels through a hole, you should know this as an audiophile.

You dont read me in the right way.... i believe hell exist but is a creation of consciousness not of God.....My God dont wrote books and dont have beard....My faith is the faith of an old man without church, and not the faith of a children anymore....I trust God not religions...

You can write mahgister :)

By the way the economy was already destroyed before the covid crisis.....Dont read the dow Jones like Trump read it.... Read a little bit more than news or ideology....
