In Reply to: Why are you seeking a nonexistent explanation? posted by soulfood on June 17, 2005 at 11:47:00:
the question is why when a possible answer is given he refuses to aknowledge it? it could be the placebo effect, he wants to hear so he hears. no new science, no breaking the laws of physics, just plain and simple self delusion. instead he prefers to believe in some kind of top secret technology that just so happens to invisibly improve music from cds. am i missing something here or has common sense gone to the wall?PAR
