    I would question why anyone would view the results published in Choice magazine. Many yeara ago Philips invented a system for stereo sound in TV, In UK this was the accepted system. Now choice failed to realise this and published an article as to how some other TV had better sound. Not only that but at that time KB TVs were rated as the best, ITT were at number 4. Now if you like brands on chipboard perhaps that does it for you, but know your trade and both TVs were clones in diffeing boxes
    So no believe what you will, but choice sells you an average of consumers views. If this is your wish, so be it.

    An interesting perspective.

    I gave away subscribing to Choice many years ago because things like whether the product carried a safety warning seemed to rate a product more favorably in their eyes than the underlying engineering.

    Thus one mower would be rated higher than another simply because it had a safety warning about the grass chute or something similar. It just seemed silly to me.

    Ah well, I did not meant to exhibit carping criticism.


    Now I am being corny.


    Speaking of corn, that is the bait that catches carp, of course.




    Luv ya work, Soundman!

    You know life is full of those little bits of knowledge that fills your head. So much so that there comes a time where your brain swims with junk and the stuff you need seems harder to remember.
    So I shall give you another bit of true but woeful rubbish. The inventor of the first flushing toilet was a Mr Crapper. Now that piece of crap is lodged in your brain, what piece of interesting information are you missing?
    Have to edit my post, cos the thing still haunts me. It was a bowl with a 6" black hole in salt glazed pipe at the rear above it. When you flushed, the water scooped the contents into that black hole. I was a kid of 10 or so and I still see that thing in my mind. Where did that hole go, and what could crawl up it. Well someone flattened the old castle and only I care as to its crapper. Please enjoy my memories and I truly am sorry for blocking up your mind with crap.
