I don't defend Geoff's action, but if you're really concerned with righting wrongs, you certainly could have started long ago and not terribly far away. Are you really an upstanding crusader for justice, or merely a sensitive little man? I believe I know the answer based on your activity today.
As for what others think of me, please, I'm 50 years old. That concern left me the day I turned 49. ;-)

...of facetiousness. Romulans embrace it like there's no tomorrow. Not that I care what you think. ;-) ;-)
And give the money you would send MD to charity? Bet you would have a better chance at improving system than the MD tweaks...And sure you would feel better inside than this endless defending of MD products.
I'll stay with the project, Lord willing of course.And why not simply have your customers give their money to charity instead of purchasing your speakers if you're THAT concerned?
Thats a great idea? We already give a % to autism charitys, if folks want to donate full purchase price of any of my loudspeakers to charity wonderful;)I will give them a free tee shirt.Fight the good fight
Why not just pray for their current speakers to get the job done and give ALL the money to charity. What's good for the goose you know.
Bet this will be a new MD tweak, charge folks $125 and MD will pray for your systems sonic improvement.Lasts 4 months then just resend funds for a recharge.

You really have placed your flagpole on high ground.
PS I am Brinkamnn of yesterday. A variety of errors on my part and on the site's part caused this. Thanks Clark for resolving the issue :-)
More ad hominems. It's good to see that at least you're consistent.
I never claimed to be a crusader of anything. Geoff did something unethical. I wanted it addressed and I also wanted everyone to know about it. This has been my stance from post one. I have never said anything to suggest otherwise.
I'm not sure what you mean by "started long ago." My photo was inappropriately posted onto his website a couple days ago. Not sure what you mean by "terribly far away" either.
...and that MD springs are of inferior quality. Where you get these ideas, and why you chose to bring them up is beyond me.
If I had to guess, I'd say it's due to some serious issue involving hatred and angst. You have all the appearance of someone looking for offense.
WWJD? He'd tell you, if you are free of sin, cast the first stone.
...an unknowing misappropriation of a web-mounted pic?
Who says yes!?

I drank the MD cool-aid.
I have the clocks the outlet covers, the brilliant pebbles, THE PROMETHEAN SPRINGS, and done the phone tapping- ALL HAVE BEEN WELL WORTHWHILE. Just because you don't understand something doesn't mean you can't appreciate what it does for you. IE WOMEN
Geoff knowingly took intellectual property that wasn't his. There is still intellectual property on his website that he shouldn't be using. He only removed my photo because I caught him in the act.I did not post any willful misrepresentation of MD products. First of all, you would have to prove motive (an ability which you and Wellfed seem to stake authority). Second, the only possible misrepresentation I made was with the material composition of the wall cover. I still don't know for sure that it isn't some plastic polymer. However, I gave Wellfed the benefit of the doubt and promptly edited my allegedly incorrect "plastic" assertion because Wellfed claims the outlet is not made of plastic (though he failed to correct me on what it is made of).
Edit:
For the sake of accurate representation, I did a little research into the MD outlet covers. Here's a thread of someone who reviewed the product: http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/m.mpl?forum=tweaks&n=137157&highlight=tru&r=&session=
It's apparently made of ceramic and produced in China by a New Jersey company named Amertac. These products are distributed Home Depot, Walmart, Lowes, Target, et al.
And you know it was *knowingly* a violation, how, exactly? "First of all, you would have to prove motive" (I quote).
Then: "It's apparently made of ceramic and produced in China by a New Jersey company named Amertac. These products are distributed Home Depot, Walmart, Lowes, Target, et al." Note the fudge word "apparently". Note too the pronoun shift from "it" (the MD plate) to "these", the general products of that apparent company. Was that willful? Knowing? Hmmm?
clark
I didn't say it was knowingly a violation. I said Geoff knowingly took a photo that he knew was not his.
I'm not sure what you're getting at with your grammar nitpicking. "It" to "these" suggests nothing insidious to me, but maybe you're reading something into it that I'm not (and surely did not intend). I'm also not sure why you consider "apparently" a "fudge word." Having seen the back engraved logo of the Tru-Tone photos provided in the linked review, it is apparent who manufactured Tru-Tone.
This conversation is getting too crazy for me.
And one
More ad hominems and pejorative characterizations. Absolutely zero substantial argument. It's like shadow boxing.
"He'd tell you, if you are free of sin, cast the first stone." That's a easy (though not terribly inventive) way of excusing yourself of bad behavior.
P.S. Does any of my disparaging comments (limited to one short paragraph in this 100+ post thread) about MD products matter? You continue to dodge the real issue here, and that is Geoff behaved unethically. And yet, all you've done is try to reprimand me ... and never Geoff. Go figure. Do we really want to play the "I know what your motive is" farce of a game?
You have proven quite the master of dodging the salient issue by attempting (rather unsuccessfully) to poison the well.
Now I know you have a problem.
Will you look at that? Another ad hominem with absolutely no rational argument of relevance.
