TV,

::In any case...i enjoyed our exchange, and look forward to any details on the email previously discussed::

On the outside chance that you are sincere when you say that, perhaps I should be serious here for a moment.

Picture two guys having a conversation in the park. One of them is a young guy who enjoys driving his all-wheel drive turbo charged Eagle Talon. He’s talking to an older guy who’s just bought his Ford Crown Vic and thinks it’s the most perfect car he’s ever driven. Now, you can picture them having a spirited conversation on the merits of their respective cars- each trying to sell the other on the car he drives. It can be fun. But as soon as one of them starts demeaning the other by casting dispersions on his integrity or his knowledge on the subject, it’s going to get ugly pretty quickly and here’s hoping that one of them knows enough to get up and walk away. He may get up acknowledging defeat or he may just get up acknowledging that there is little use in beating his head against the wall.

What you don’t seem to understand is that not everybody is looking for the same things from their systems. You want to speak of achieving reference levels, which is fine for those who care to. But do you realize how few people actually listen to their systems that loud? This is just one point on which people differ.

Over and over points have been made to you and you just don’t get it. Rather than acknowledging that some people like Talons while other people like Crown Vics, you want to tell people what to drive.

Now I know that some people get their rocks of by arguing in cyberspace and if you are one of them, more power to you! But I’m not one of them. I enjoy clarifying issues and making suggestions to people looking for help and I’m not into trying to change people’s minds.

This is why I ended my exchange with you. If you look around at the regulars on this forum you find people like Alan, Shawn and Stuart, all of whom I’ve known for years and while we all have our occasional disagreements, they are pretty much like me. They are here to talk about things that interest us, help others when they can and generally be of good cheer. Of course, we all like to learn something along the way.

Its not about being the biggest badest dude on the block or about being “right” all the time.


John
