He's got tubes up the pitootie.

My point was, depending on how you phrased the PM, Jude may have gotten the same incorrect impression. Perhaps someone should start a thread to recommend making the site viable on smartphones with internet access besides the iPhone. Is there a "Suggestions" forum? Or perhaps just take a poll, asking people if it works on their smartphone or not, and which one they have.

And if none of that works, bring a staple gun.

"...about this matter..." is too vague -- before your previous post, I thought you meant about ad-blocking. You mean about the ads.

Sure, why not? What's the difference between this and any other component that doesn't have a separate ground lead (I.E. 2 prong plug vs. 3 prong plug)?

Burrito Bros. Super Chicken Burrito -- best burritos in the area, still.

Hey, did you know there was a sequel to that? Also, the original site.

Dude, you live in Hawaii, the place that other people go to, for vacations. Me -- not planning anything any time soon, just finally got caught up on a lot of of negative vacation accrual, so not planning anything until next year or so. I do take off a day here and there, but it's mostly to get caught up around the house. The last vacation I had was back in October, went to San Fran to visit with my sisters.

Actually, it says "set", not "box" -- I wouldn't be surprised if they're just offering a package discount if you get all of them (looks like it's priced such that you get the EP for free), like the RCA Living Stereo sets. 4AD explicitly mentions a box set in the context of the Japanese mini-LP covers, which would make more sense. I wrote them, guess I better just hope they see my email. Oh, and for anime fans, are you as excited as I am that they're coming out with three Kenji Kawai compilations? Unfortunately, I only see a couple tracks each from GITS, GITS2:I, and Spirited Away (from googling), but at least they have "Reincarnation" (one of my favorite tracks ever).

Also, aren't electrostatics more sensitive to fine particulate matter (tiny hairs, etc.) than dynamic drivers? I'm not saying dynamic drivers aren't sensitive to stuff in the air (I distinctly remember a certain L3000...), but because of the high voltages, isn't it worse for electrostatics?

You obviously don't own any cats. Hirsch has a cat that place a cat hair in a specific place just by thinking about it. Of course, a hermetically sealed headphone-humidor won't help that, but it'll help reduce the hairs that "just happen" to get blown in there between the cracks.

Fixed that for you. (I'm a Mac user, and I love Firefox.)

No, I'd be looking for a normal discount, one they could still make money on, but a discount to us "early adopters" who "bought in". Something like the box set mentioned on the 4AD site:

That's why I like White Flint. You buy three at the upper counter, go put them in the car, then go back and buy three more at the lower counter. Besides, you can meet girls at Borders. Admittedly, I haven't yet, but I haven't given up completely. Dew et.

I can't find the post now -- who is selling pre-orders for cheap (or is it free shipping)?

Dude, you're talking to a bunch of people who use gold and silver interconnects, power cords that are better than what is in the walls, listen to music at specific times of day because it sounds better then, believe that equipment changes its sound over time, and use capacitors with the same specs made out of different materials. "Overkill" is not in our vocabulary...well it is, but as a design philosophy.

Will it even run over Edge on an iPhone/iTouch?

Of course, that might explain why most things are sold by the time I see the ad.

I don't have anything specific, but for the only slightly more esoteric stuff, I tend towards CD-Wow. Unfortunately, you just missed Borders' 40% off sale.

Hirsch to the white courtesy telephone please. Paging Dr. Hirsch, white courtesy telephone immediately, you are needed in HSC...

Ha, I got most of you beat:
