Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums?

Kuhn wrote a famous book about paradigms changes to demonstrate the opposite ...

Most people observing a disturbing fact troubling their calming perspective on phenomena will keep their paradigm , as someone loosing his keys may search for them at the feet of the lamp pole because the explanation must be there because light shine only there ..

is it not logical?

They are afraid not only to loose their keys now but to loose their only "reason" ...then they stick to the post lamp as a herd in the same spot  all together ...

«Fools had lost everything save reason »-- G. K. Chesterton

I wish you a merry christmas and in the name of all a warm  welcome in audiogon ... 🎄

When a reliably observable phenomenon can’t be explained within the boundaries of existing paradigm, what would a wise person do? Change the paradigm!

Thank you. Merry Christmas to you too!

So much bickering.  Is it possible that some of you are somehow married to each other and just using pseudonyms?  It only carries a certain level of entertainment and as predictable as a Hallmark movie ending.  Enjoy your toxicity cocktail while I enjoy my music on my system not to be judged by anyone but me.  Cheers to all, even the wankers.

Predictable as a Hallmark movie??

Those things keep me guessing to the very end.

So many plot twists!

that's what I tell my wife: "don't spoil it for me, I won't know how it ends until the credits!"
