      • Skeptic commented on Which Technical Inaccuracies in Scifi Annoy You the Most?

        "Well, not necessarily a sci-fi thing, but the arguments about which color wire on the bomb to cut always bug me, as if mad bombers all use an ISO standard color code for bomb wiring or something."

      "grooves1 on Oct 25, 2007 Your comments about cables indicate true ignorance, which comports nicely with your arrogance."
      Ignorance? Funny, I'm not the "expert" audio reviewer who thinks that **carbon** is magnetic and that demagnetizers make LPs sound better... Project much? I've left a more detailed response on your page...

      Your comments about cables indicate true ignorance, which comports nicely with your arrogance.

      grooves1 on Oct 25, 2007

      I have not backtracked at all. After Pear backed out, I tried to get Randi to let me use my reference cables. He agreed, subject to what his "advisors" told him. That's the last I heard from him. The next day on his site he claimed I was backing out, I was a "blowhard," etc. He's a pathological liar. And that's the truth. He's mischaracterized my writing often, doing whatever it takes to discredit me, including total lies-whatever it takes to harm the reputations of others....He's a swell crusader! -Michael Fremer

      Hey Skeptic, Just wanted to reach out to you. Have enjoyed our exchange. Didn't want you to think I was being rude not being back around. I've been busy with work and family and all. Feel free to contact me anytime at kevinlee@monstercable.com If I'm not responding, make sure you reach my assistant at lmcintosh@monstercabl.com Be safe, Kevin
