I do a bit of objective work, of course, but the bottom line easily visible in all of my product reviews is subjectivism. > But since God gave him > the power to read minds, he knows that HE is a rationale, careful listener. No. Rather, unlike glassy-eyed, puffed-up tweakos whose worlds revolve around their exotic audio systems, I consider an audio system as a means to an end, and do not become enamored of exotic and overkill products that do nothing more than suck money out of wallets. > However, the rest of we subjectivists are simply deluded. No doubt. > How does he know? One need only spend a bit of time here to see the proof put forth for all to read. > How does Howard ever know? Those who read his posts KNOW he reads minds.

Insight is something fools have problems understanding. > They also know his mindreading is always off by 180 degrees. Everything he > thinks he knows about others is wrong!
