Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?

Heck, most hippies these days drive hybrids and drink kombuchas... but I've not had Birkenstocks for decades (they didn't hold up so well in the Minnesota winters; neither did my socks). But I still wear sandals as much as I can.

I even ride my bike with sandals (Shimano is making their clipless sandals again) which I used when I rode the Tour Divide back in June.

Looks like a kool race.  Next you you do it, take Kait with you.  He needs to get out of his basement and get some exercise.  I lived in the cities for over 10 years during my training at the U and owned a mountain bike and road it all over creation.  The endless trails along the river were great.   

Geoffkait: The discussion in which the Ginsberg Burroughs anecdote appeared was about knowledge not lifestyle. To whit,

"Burroughs, older and wiser, simply replied that he didn’t say anything because "you can’t tell anybody anything they don’t already know." That’s putting it rather in the extreme, but it’s another way of saying that some people just don’t get it and never will."

The more I think about it the Burroughs quote could apply to you. 😛

Agear: And you separate those two things how? Have you read any of his novels or are you flying on derivative knowledge as usual....? Again, I don’t look to either pedophiles or drug addicts for "knowledge" aka wisdom.

Bobo the botonist takes a swing at the theoretical physicist and misses. I can certainly understand why it took you 10 years to get out of school. I’m much better read than you are, that’s pretty obvious.

Oops, forgot Pearl spells it Harbour. She's half Japanese/half American, so the name has a special significance. She useta do "Fujiyama Mama", the old Wanda Jackson Rockabilly song. Funny! Pearl is quite an amazing looking woman, very sexy. And what a clothes horse! Her house in L.A. is a two-bedroom, one of which she made into a walk-in closet, complete with a bunch of those racks with wheels that stores hang their goods on. And the house is decorated with posters of 50's Striptease artists, whom she now kinda resembles. Whatta gal!

Some people's ego doesn't allow them to contemplate how little of our brains do we use, how little we know. A healthy dose of a psychedelic can help with that.

I have finally figured out why this thread has been such a mosh pit. Bdp24 let the cat out of the bag.  Aside from the erratic ramblings of Mr Kait (a given on threads of any subject), it has struggled to retain focus due to the insidious input of aging hipsters.  In his book "Doors of Perception," Aldous Huxley celebrated the quasi-religious revelations offered by Mescaline.  Cdp24 mirrors that sentiment.  The dark side of such as chemical enlightenment does not always manifest until much later in conjunction with aging of the brain.  These "experiences" are burnt into our grey matter as a neural circuit of sorts, and these neural eddies re-emerge in an uncontrolled and inappropriate ways unbeknownst to the victim.  The damage wrought by psychedelics has been borne out to some degree in the aftermath of the CIA's LSD experiments (Kait, if you were a participant, this would make this revelation a complete circle).  At this point, in a Zuckerbergian gesture and for the sake of thread clarity, I propose censorship of all participants with exposure to psychedelic drugs in their past.  A hair sample can be taken, and if you are clean, your musings on mechanical grounding will be accepted.
