Poe's Law, proven again

[Andy Peters]

"Any sufficiently-advanced parody is indistinguishable from a real kook."

I present this in the "real or satire?" category.

Oh for f**ks sake these kooks have cooked up a book on "cable theory". A link from the above scam: http://www.audiovisualonline.co.uk/media/audioquest/pdfs/aq_cable_theory.pdf

I didn't read it, but happened to notice this towards the ending,

"It is the truly inexperienced listener who most easily appreciates differences and is able to establish hierarchy. Ironically, it is listeners with a total absence of technical detail who are most easily able to cut directly to the truth. However, even these fortunate people need an appropriate context for the bare truth to come shining through."

It's as if after writing that piece of utter sewage some last remnant of conscience kicked in and accidentally made the writer describe the nature of the scam for the whole world to see.
