Probably that,  because of our increasingly failing memory, we've simply forgotten that the subject has already been exhaustively covered.

Now, what was I saying .......................

............. middle aged & beyond means we are all circling the plughole.  We may not have come to realise it yet but one of the first signs is talking about stuff over & over.

The rule ought to be: when helping others spend their money, try not to lead them into divorce whereby they will lose whatever nice gear they already have as well as the upgrade.

When a member comes onto the forum with a budget of £1,000 to upgrade something only to be tip toed and slowly convinced, drip by drip, post by post, page by page that you will now need a budget of at least £10,000 to achieve the same goal.

While where, when, how and how often you massage your Burndy and how it hangs in the air or what it touches afterwards is entirely appropriate to discuss on the Naim forum, it's probably not acceptable for everyday conversation.

Same rules as ever

a) Post positive, or not at all

b) Never post anything you would not say to someone's face

And narcissism feeds narcissism...

More positively, and hopefully, politeness and respect feed politeness and respect.
