This thread is starting to remind me of a posting I really like from another forum regarding the typical "audiophile" response to being questioned about his beliefs:
http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=92856&view=findpost&p=785522 Repeated below: Paragraph 1, righteous indignation. Check. Paragraph 2, Argument from having spent a lot of money. Check. Paragraph 3, "I used to be like you", with a side of concern trolling. Check. Paragraphs 4 and 5, personal anecdote with a TOS8 cherry on top. Check. Paragraph 6, "don't criticize unless you have tried it yourself". Check. Paragraph 7, argumentum ad verecundiam. Check. Paragraph 8, straw man. Check. Paragraph 9, "I look down on you." Check. Paragraph 10, irrelevancy. Check. Going for the record in fallacy density? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96419 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
