Does other Audiogon members' opinion carry any weight for you ?

Getting advice has its pros and cons. What you’re getting is another’s experience. But opinions are like something else that everyone has. 

Elbows?

Well, do the opinions of people who call into political talk-radio shows carry any weight with you?

I think the answer says more about you than about the opinion-holders.

I miss geoffkait. 

Cranky dude. 😝  if I may paraphrase an old country song that the Byrds resurrected on Sweetheart of the Rodeo: you don’t miss your whatever ‘til the well runs dry. 

As for your question, I look for specific answers for specific questions. I don’t waste people’s time with window-shopping or kick-the-tires kind of questions. At least, I try not to.
