Nate thinks Jason is a menace2society (the sportbike, not ipod, topic)
Yes, but I'd bet even a GT250R is a fun little toy. 250 lb bikes are fun

There are a not insignificant number of google searches that I do that end up with the first few links being to head-case, surprisingly enough.

Article on record sales doubling and CD sale dropping
Given that CDs were introduced in 1984, I'd say that $15 today is comparable to $7 then... I'd gladly pay $20 for good quality recordings from good bands. I do, often, in fact

You can remove me from consideration, I'm not anywhere near in the running for this objectively.

Article on record sales doubling and CD sale dropping
It's a value perception problem. CDs are $15-20 when DVDs are also $15-20. But really the problem is that the music that's getting distributed is terrible.

Article on record sales doubling and CD sale dropping
Thing is, the record sales doubling wouldn't be a blip on the volume of cd sales. The markets are orders of magnitude different. And most people would say $2500 is a fortune for a turntable.

Balanced, solid state amplifiers?
They just don't lock

There's something wrong in Colorado...
Look at it this way: Why would jude insist on protecting RSA over all others? What benefit would he get? I'm fairly sure that one or two of the mods protect rsa, just as some protect other builders, but not as a conspiracy. They're just more aware of attacks on rsa than others because that's what they've paid attention to. As to why it matters, I'm not sure. There are lots of things in the world worth getting worked up over. RSA amplifiers aren't on that list for me.

I'd write it off as human nature combined with incompetence, rather than directed action.

Fretless is actually a little easier for me, sounds more right so I'm more likely to keep going.

New Year, new diet!
I think I mostly prefer eating good food and being a little overweight. I got back down to 170 a few years back, then went to new orleans and rediscovered how good food can be. Now I'm hovering around 200 and am reasonably happy. I spiked over that during the holidays, so I'm working on getting back down, but I definitely don't feel the need to get back to 170 again.
