Accuphase all the way down
On a separate note, I do wonder just how the afflicted cope with textese and the use of emojis - particularly as they both have become part of everyday communication for many, linguistic tools which span continents and allow for the easy communication of many words and phrases.
Such developments must have them reaching for the Benzos.
As one of the afflicted, text speak doesn't bother me at all. It is a new and different form of written English which has its own rules. That it hasn't appropriated the rules of conventional grammar and spelling is neither here nor there. What offends me is people failing to correctly use the rules which do apply, when they apply. We were all taught the basic rules and, absent any mitigating factor like dyslexia, I think people should make the effort to apply them. Like what I done there, yerknowworrimean.
