The science of opinion ...

"I’d rather poke an icepick in my ear than to read some of that scientific psychobabble."

Huh, that is quite a feeling. Thankfully, scientific psychobabble makes it possible to repair some of the damage from trauma sustained by poking things in one’s ear. Not all of it, for that more scientific articles and psychobabble are needed, but some.

Not really a true literature search, but google, sheds some light on it...

With some glimpse of techniques.

A bit more important psychobabble than cold or hot cables, fuses, or other topics frequently discussed here.

Sorry, Ethan dude, but I’m not into the whole Pro audio bag. I like to think outside the bag. Pro audio and AES are way too stodgy for me. But as Bob Dylan says at the end of his records, good luck to you! 🤗

Come on, Ethan! Do I look like the kind of clown who could start a whole movement? I attack you guys because you’re awful. Everybody is awful these days. It’s enough to make anyone crazy. 😛 But it IS fun, I no longer pretend it’s not.  Is that my defense for attacking pseudo-skeptics? No, they couldn’t carry a tune to save their lives. 🤡

Has "The Amazing Randy" resurfaced? I get so excited when someone says: "Trust me", it's so presidential, it must be true.

This Ethan person undoubtedly has a very powerful personality.

Look at this thread. Almost everybody has some opinion, mostly negative and very strong, about him.

If he were really worthless and unimportant, wouldn't you just shrug your shoulders and laugh him off?

I had never heard of that man nor am I understanding why some of you think he is participating in this thread.

I'm not at all denying that readers of scientific psychobabble aren't necessary. I believe quite the opposite, as a matter of fact. If it weren't for these guys, we wouldn't have trains that run on time, planes flying near the speed of sound at 35,000 feet taking us across the country in under five hours. We wouldn't have satellites, cell phones, big-screen TVs or traffic control without them. My point is ... I couldn't care less HOW these things work, only that they do. I certainly don't want to read white papers on the technicalities, or minutia until my eyeballs glaze over either. I'd rather have a bird fly up my nose. :-)

Now then, back to the record vault.
