Yes, this is what I meant. And yes, there are OT threads on LAU, and they sometimes are enlightening, insightful, memorable or just plain boring. But questioning the core principle of computer programming or computer use is bound to be received ("perceived" :) as provocation. And argue with people like Paul Davis on *this very subject* is bound to failure, if not rude. And I personaly wouldn't use a word like "heretical" here, I'm too wary of religious perceptions (once again !) to use such a heavy word. There is an agreement on using the same tools here, not a dogma we obey to. Anyway, I wish you to keep having a good time making or listening to music, through whatever device pleases you the most. Hearing is great. But this is just my perception of things ... ;) -- David
