    strange stuff!
    But it is no stranger than some of the cutting-edge science being done these days. I refer of course, to teleportation. Local rumor has it that researchers right here in Kansas City, at the old Bendix facility, are transmitting matter thru steel plate electronically. Word has it that the matter is quite disorganized on the receiving end. Maybe they need a Heisenberg Compensator!

    Sounds like a problem in the transporter pattern buffers.

    Aye, Captain. She canna take much more!
    The Belts (Chris & his dad) and their magic foil were an issue here about 5 - 6 years ago. He came here offfering free samples and pretty much got laughed outta here. ...Got pretty much the same reception atthe asylum too.

    They are still in business? Why should I be surprized at the endless supply of gullible audiophiles.

    Everyone read some of the stuff on this site.
    It is not so much funny as confusing. Like a combination of psycology, theoretical physics, and nonsense.

    Interesting point.

    However, there is a huge difference. Most cutting edge science remains in the lab for years, is worked on by many top scientists and engineers, is reported in peer journals, is widely known in the general scientific community and is on mainstream media.

    Those audio tweaks are for sale right now. There is no mention of the R&D work or testing done. Sometimes there is a feeble attempt to baffle with psuedo-nonsense but there is no peer journal review nor international scientific community recognition.

    It's almost like some guy in his basement came up with a widget, claimed it did wonderful things, wrote down a couple of scientific terms and then started selling it on a website.

    Hey MarkW, they need fresh dilithium crystals...
    ...would be my guess...it say's so somewhere right here in the Starfleet Manual...
