I agree with you that there's some Aczel-bashing going on here. And I can see why you would take offense at that, 'cause you really like the magazine and Peter Aczel's writing style and his views.

To tell the truth, I guess I'm kind of a cynic too, 'cause I kind of agree with a lot of the rocks Aczel has thrown at the hifi business. I find myself sometimes thinking the same way. Makes me want to be sure to guard from getting too wrapped up in something, which I am prone to do. But enough introspection.

I got busy and didn't watch this thread develop. I don't know which of us is moderator here, and I can't look it up 'cause I'm not near the computer with the list. But I think it would probably be a tough call for whoever it is. I don't really know how I feel about it.

But likening this thread with the Asylum, now that's really stinky.

I guess what I'm trying to say is maybe we could cut Damir some slack. I think he means to say he "strongly disagrees", not really name calling. I shouldn't put words in his mouth, maybe he meant the strongest of insults. ("I shall fart in your general direction", to quote Monte Python) But you've seen his posts, and I think you'll agree that Damir is a moderate personality here.
