Know what you mean - but I am afraid they are outnumbered by the
pseudoscientists. As we all know, quantum physics makes *anything*
possible...

I agree, but there is a great quote from Isaac Asimov: "I believe in
evidence. I believe in observation, measurement, and reasoning,
confirmed by independent observers. I'll believe anything, no matter how
wild and ridiculous, if there is evidence for it. The wilder and more
ridiculous something is, however, the firmer and more solid the evidence
will have to be."

I have been all over the spectrum, but my experience has mostly been
with pro audio. The more I learn about the Audiophile Alternative
Universe, the more sceptical (or, rather, cynical) I become.

I am painfully aware that I am turning into a grumpy old man...
