    Zilch,that quote of mine is very misleading without the rest of the quote so I took the liberty of pasting the whole quote...

    "I as well, like to see the end of projects that people do in the DIY forum and to reply in that forum on that project would be BS Bandwidth on my part as I don't know spit about DIY projects but I would like to say "hey,you've come a long way on that and made something real nice" but I keep my place and don't say anything"

    Now it doesn't sound like I want the end of all projects in the DIY forum.

    If I erred in judgement then my apologies.

    im sure that if any group of members sat down face to face other topics besides audio in general and jb in particular would be discussed.i think its impossible to keep a group of some 7000 people from all over the world on such a narrow list of topics.perhaps we should revell in the ability to communicate with like minded folks the world over at the push of a button........three chairs .........no waiting...................

    Naw, I'm just makin' outta context fun here.

    It's abundantly evident that MY DIY project will NEVER end!

    A bit of site history here: the DIY forum exists largely as a result of me polluting the rest of the forums with my "stuff."

    Call me crazy, but.....

    this place turned up the BS heat about the same time Yahoo halted it's news message boards. A lot of pent up points of view. I'm as guilty as any, but I've been here long enough to get to know who is who and dole out respect accordingly. Take Zilch for instance. When I first came in contact with Z on this forum, he devoured my question and comments, chewed them up, swallowed them, then regurgitated the answer back in my face. It wasn't a pretty site. You can imagine I wasn't too thrilled with his rapier like sense of humor. But, you live and learn. From that I learned to appreciate the wit to get to the wisdom. This is often true of others here as well who may serve their knowledge up on less than a silver platter. One of my favorites here has referred to me as a 'meathead'. Well, I can't say I've lived with the inlaws, but they did send us on a wonderful honeymoon to Banff almost twenty years ago. I enjoy everything this person offers and could never approach the knowledge they impart. Maybe just a little thicker skin is in order here. It's worked wonders for me.

    Just so we're on the same page,

    Bullshit;

    Excerpt from Wikipedia,

    ...snip..." the term 'bullshit artist' may imply a measure of respect for the skill required to bullshit effectively. It is by no means necessary to be inaccurate or wrong to be bullshitting, simply being overly pompous, presumptuous, or putting on excessively academic airs, may also be labelled in some cultural subgroups as bullshitting."
