As I've said before, I wish that people who want rigor applied to
testing methodologies would also want rigor applied to understanding
the characteristics of the test subjects.  It's a pretty
universally-accepted idea that individuals hear differently from
one-another.  I don't see how asking about someone's listening habits
on a report of a blind test is "bullshit".  

And one more note about civility, I have yet to call anyone a
"bullshitter"...
