    As for that last bit, you're a bit of a hypocrite, as it was you who was earlier blissfully indulging in "inter-forum bollocks", with that HUMUNGOUS post you put up about Wigwam!

    I was thinking whilst in the bath last night about those who have this need to constantly 'have a go' at someone or some group, remembering my earlier post on it being the result of a personality defect.

    I think a good metaphor is that they are running themselves like a poorly run business, they cannot 'balance the books' and so are always having to seek resources outside to prop it up.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Well it was someone else; I remember the same massive post, but it is bizarre that two people remember ME doing it! Oh well....

    My apologies - on this occasion it's me who's forgetful, as I was getting you mixed up with 'Ziggy'. However, I completely disagree with what you wrote in your previous post:

    Easy to say, and be so apathetic about, when you're not the target of the 'discussion', and when said 'discussion' has been carrying on for years, and in reality amounts to harassment and continued (unwarranted) persecution from those unwilling to let bygones be bygones.

    No-one is 'entitled' to do that. I certainly wouldn't allow it here, and I will fight it, when necessary, when received from elsewhere.

    However, I don't think there are many who frequent hi-fi forums who haven't been the target of someone or another with an axe to grind. The subject matter seems to set everyone off against each other, and no site is 100% innocent.
