Constipate you too unless basically brown as the starch sucks fluids from the digestive tract.

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!”

Niggly might be a good word for it, not that I intend to rub you up the wrong way in anything but a good-humoured way, but i am trying to eek (niggle?) out an understanding of where and why folk draw a line between the 'facts' they are willing to accept affect perception (the sugar/starch content and the sweetness of a banana) and the ones they don't (the ability of digital sampling to accurately represent audio spectrum).
Given that a page or so ago you agreed with Gazjam, that using spectroscopy to analyse the chemical content of wine could say nothing about the how that wine might taste, it seemed like rather a turn for you to then argue against Macca's post, retorting the reason for a banana tasting the way that it did was because of a 'fact' about it's chemistry.
Now, it may be that I missed the irony in your response to an already ironic post, in which case I'm sorry, it doesn't however undermine the credibility of the notion that there is a sensible place between pure objectivity and pure subjectivity where physics and psychology/perception can co-exist and enable us to put together good hifi systems without wandering 'lost in the dark' or of never enjoying any music because we're more interested in a frequency graph.
It's all bananas!
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
fantastic comments guys
384, fruit, wine and light bulbs!
Tell me Mr.Einstein: Is 384KHz (sound wave) faster than a light bulb (light wave)?
...did someone mention light? ...fiber optics Vs. coax Vs. USB Vs. Phono and its effect with regard to 384KHz?
This could become one of the most: fascinating, informative, humorous, illuminating, good humored threads on A.O.S.!
...let it rip people! ...let it rip! ...enjoying every comment

Just back to offer Jimbo a proper apology.
James, I'm sorry.
I looked back and realised that you had actually quoted the post by 'the doc' (in support of Gazjam) I was thinking of, so the post that I'd thought was yours was actually 'the docs' and I therefore mis-attributed an assertion you had not made.

There are certain conditions where sound will move faster than light, through a brick wall for instance ;-)
The link I posted earlier points out that the 55picosecond transient resolution of the redbook standard equates to a lightspeed distance of less than 3cm, pretty quick.
