That one actually got me shoulders-jigglingly giggling.

Yeah, the combination of period-style writing and his rambling style make it a tough read, but it's worth it if you read the entire trilogy.

You're right, I was getting distracted into binaural recording territory by the fact that you were using a head. You were just using it for convenience for measuring headphones, I see that now. No, I don't think it has any impact whatsoever.

Yeah, it's probably some old lamb hag who smoked her whole life instead of some kid who was bathed in baby oil on a daily basis.

Earlier in the thread, I thought maybe his priorities were just of the type that resulted in him being extremely sensitive to digititis. But yeah, "thin"?

Yeah, I found that out. Screw that, I'm not taking the chance.

Well, you ought to use your color tanks once in a while anyway, so the nozzles don't dry out.

It might also be a bad fan.
