You're like a golden ear when he reads about the results of a blind audition or test that contradicts his beliefs:PT sez:
"Broad generalization based on two reports from a single source."RG:
The fact that I took the time to provide you with URL's for two articles about life in Iraq does not mean that my views on life in Iraq are based solely on those two reports.At least I base my reports on Iraq on what exists there now -- not on some Repooplican-rose-colored-glasses-neoconservative-view of how wonderful life in Iraq will be at some undisclosed date in the future ... such as just after the next US. Presidential election
... that sends Bush back to Texas ... permanently.Typical politics - when reality is bad news, always point to how much better things will be in the future.

PC sez:
Kind of like broad generalizations drawn from personal antecdotal experiences with "blind" tests.RG:
The fact that I have taken the time to participate in at least 16 double and single-blind auditions does not mean that I make broad generalizations based solely on my own experiences.I've also read reports about blind auditions in audio magazines and audio club newsletters over several decades.
In addition, I've questioned audio club members about their own blind audition experiences, sometimes just minutes after they completed a blind audition that I did not participate in.
I only consider my experiences to be of value to other audiophiles because they have been similar to the experiences of many other audiophiles who have made an effort to "test" their hearing ability under blind conditions.*
*People who claim "I know what I hear" consistently fail to prove their hearing ability claims ... again ... and ... again ...
and ... again.
