Re: Hi Alex, thanks for the very level-headed response


I don't understand your emotions. We are here to learn, don't we?

What about the all the people who read your article and accept the conclusions it contains because they don't know enough to question your results? Have they learned anything? Your article has only added to the vast amount of misinformation being spread around on the web. The main reason why I got interested in the web 10 years ago was the potential to learn about new subjects and new research. But how can I really do that if a large percentage of the technical articles on the web are untrustworthy? Most of the time, readers are not knowledgeable enough to sort out the good from the bad. I can only do it in certain areas of certain subjects. The rest of the time, I'm relying on responsible journalistic practices not to misinform me.

I agree with you concerning the technical articles, but it is not one of them.

That is a cop-out excuse. You wrote a factual article, not an opinion piece. Your article presented data and analyses and your conclusions were presented as facts.

Another point is - nothing wrong is in it - though we we have 2 choices - fraudulent (because no one warned about such possibility) additional ultrasonics in 49TXi (then it should be the same in 49TX and 59TXi) or existing on the disk ones. We don't know the truth yet, but we will find out. Without attention to this article from experts around the world and their help we would never do it.

My point is that it shouldn't be up to casual readers in internet forums to inform you about the nature of your source data or point out issues with your test setup, and it certainly shouldn't happen AFTER the article is published.

What makes me so upset about this discussion is that you and Christine seem to be unconcerned about how many people are misinformed while you two try to make a name for yourselves as audio experts and journalists. I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I just can't have a level headed conversation with either of you about this.
