    Lojban The Logical Language

    Wow. You're the man who knows what words ACTUALLY mean ! I'd keep that to myself if I were you.

    Lojban The Logical Language

    No. You are conflating recognition of the absence of inherent stable identity with some kind of anti life mysticism to which I do not subscribe. We can discuss that in an appropriate thread sometime.

    Thanks for your input.

    Vinyl vs CDs/MP3s/digital music?

    I feel fairly sure that the reason valves sound better is because of the kind of distortion they create, as clarified in this article - http://kenrockwell.com/audio/why-tubes-sound-better.htm On another tangent, I have never heard an OTL valve amp. That may require building, because I don't...

    Vinyl vs CDs/MP3s/digital music?

    Huh. I can't believe I misspelt it twice. I've written that word thousands of times. You may be right about the amp, depending on the amp. Which is why I used the qualifier "in general". But since I started listening through my tube amp, the enjoyment level went through the roof. The audio...

    Vinyl vs CDs/MP3s/digital music?

    Analog in general. What about this choice though - digital source with a good class A valve amp vs vinyl through a typical home entertainment silicone amp ? Experience tells me that a CD player with valve amp is better than vinyl through a silicone amp. In general.

    Lojban The Logical Language

    I disagree. Ambiguity is an essential element of human communication and psychological/emotional growth. Poetry, song lyrics, and much human interaction rely on ambiguity to point to meanings and experiences outside the purview of logic and conventional speech and established norms. I remember...

    Test Yourself: How Rational are You?

    Irrational ? You will regret that buddy. I just printed a copy of your avatar and every day I'm going to stick a pin in it. We'll see how %$#&%ing irrational you think I am then.

    Test Yourself: How Rational are You?

    It was a stupid test designed to make me look like a fool. Whoever came up with the answers was a psychopathic smart a$$ and deserves a good whipping.

    9/11 Was NOT an Inside Job

    I once met an ex army sniper in a small Tasmanian city. We busked in the mall, periodically taking turns to convert our earnings into bourbon. He said "You don't need rights if you've got a good left" :)

    9/11 Was NOT an Inside Job

    People commit to anger and vengeance because it feels strong. Psychologically survivable.

    I want you to know that I hold you in high regard, and never dismiss what you say. Your posts are succinct, often witty, always straight up. You and Sunstone are among my favourite web writers.

    9/11 Was NOT an Inside Job

    Sad but true. I wish I had some idea of how this entrenched corruption - political, economic, psychological - could be dealt with.

    9/11 Was NOT an Inside Job

    Failure to deal with corrupt leadership is complicity.

    9/11 Was NOT an Inside Job

    Uh huh.

    9/11 Was NOT an Inside Job

    It can seem that way. Hence I named it 'suppressed collective guilt'.

    9/11 Was NOT an Inside Job

    I actually feel compassion, even some sorrow, for the American people. Living with such collective karma is a palpable burden, almost a curse. I realised this from my experience in Australia. During my travels around the country, I discovered that the hidden truths can be found in small rural...
