[s-cars] The "myth" of plugs blowing out of 20vt heads.

[Ian Duff]

Don't waste your time arguing with idiots.

Your use of AudiWorld is great, I retract my earlier position that AW  
is a waste of time, you've proven me wrong, and thanks for doing so.  
However, the number of AW denizens that are worth having a dialog  
with is astonishingly small, please don't waste your talents on the  
huge number of idiots, unless you think there is some hope of  
dragging them kicking and screaming into a reasonable dscourse, and  
out of the "mine's bigger" pissing contests so prevalent on AW. If  
there's hope for a few, point them to this list in addition to their  
AW participation.
