Walt, read this:
http://www.belt.demon.co.uk/newsletter/vol0202/vol0202.html#Responses...,
written by Richard Graham
The phrase "sound has priority" occurs three times.
In this link, http://www.belt.demon.co.uk/newsletter/vol0301/vol0301.html
the phrase occurs six times.
Mr. Richard Graham believes very strongly that affixing a foil sticker
imprinted with the phrase "sound has priority" on the face of audio
equipment, improves the sound. He writes about this extensively. The
indivdual posting as "soundhaspriority" admits that he is that person. Also,
the person posting is unusually voluble. Individuals capable of posting with
his use of language are extremely rare. I am myself a writer, and it is my
judgement that the subtext and style of the newsletters conforms very
closely to the posts. In private correspondence with Mr. Graham, he has not
denied that he is "soundhaspriority."

Somewhere else in this forum, someone reposted some text, author Richard
Graham, where Mr. Graham states that he has adopted the pseudonym
"soundhaspriority", presumably as an extension of what he believes. For if
one believes that sticking a piece of foil with the name on it has power,
then one can certainly believe in the power of the name.

Walt, I don't know if I've satisfied you, but this is the best that usenet
can provide. Only the power of the subpoena can do better, but subpoena is
available on for filed suits. Here in the U.S., you may be interested to
know, a person can be convicted of murder, solely on the basis of
circumstantial evidence. No body, fingerprints, blood, or DNA is required.
It happened two years ago; the man was sentenced to life in prison. The term
"circumstantial" is sometimes used as derogatory to the information, but it
is actually just a classification, one that is still taken seriously by the
law.
