I went looking for this article at newstands (couldn't find it) and the
local library (could only find the December issue, not January). I'll still
try to read the article, but after checking out a December wire (oops,
INTERCONNECT) review, I'm certainly not going to consider merely the fact
that such an article appeared in Stereophile as grounds to discard my usage
of the phrase 'bogus techno-hype'.
