He is fucking mental:
“The only way they will ship from the U.K. (from this music/ TV/video chain) is by Royal Mail. What the Hell is Royal Mail? No Express or RUSH shipment of any kind. Why? And why is my DVD shoved in a cardboard envelop with no bubble wrap on the inside? My Father said London in the 60's was like Toronto in the 30's. Both my Father and Mother had immigrated to England in 1961. My Mother worked in a London office getting £ 10 per week. Around the same time (1963) Carrie Ann Ford was getting only £40 a week for her acting performances in Doctor Who. In 1964 my Mother got $56 a week working in a Toronto office. And according to Mommy that was when the Canadian dollar was actually worth more than the British Pound. Even back in 1961 £10 a week was next to nothing to live on. I assume that by 1982 the U.k. was now on par with America. Funny, in 1993 when I went to Cambridge, England to take my sick girlfriend home; cable T.V. was a new thing over there. No one made calls in the morning. My Aunt told me the morning calls were way too expensive. I would pop in a Pound coin in the phone both and three minutes later my talking time was up. I was like, "WHAT THE FUDGE!" It is all different now. And those super cool Post Office Accounts. I was in England back in 1993. I loved the country, culture and the people.”

That's what I've thought for some time.

I just noticed in this thread: forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/why-were-cds-recorded-in-16-bit-44-1khz.648325/page-42He cites Audio Fidelity as a label that does remasters of "popular music". This is a very weirdly worded post: Naturally, it is pointed out that Audio Fidelity is no more. Just check JM's response: WTF is that? That's bizarre, unless it really is STeVe, in which case it's just fucking lame (no surprises there).

For as bad as the Hoffman forum has always been, this fucking moron might be exhibit A as to just how much further it’s fallen. As in, it’s now so infested with incels (claiming to be engineers, no less) and miscreants that even Steve has to shake his head. That is, when he’s not clicking “transfer to account” from the forum fundraising thread.

No, he never said that. It’s only been posted on that forum 7 million times.
He is either crazy, or Steve. Or both.

^^^ Looks like this "Jaddie" guy became a SHiTE specifically to call Morris out on stealing that Gearslutz poat. That was his only comment...

A Telecoms anorak writes: phone box rates in 1993 were 10p for a 2 minute long local call, or 10p for a 1 minute long national call. His £1 would have bought him, at worst, 10 minutes call time. International calls were not possible from UK payphones in 1993, and it was around this time that calls to mobiles had to be connected through the Operator.
Frankly, the only possible call he could make from a UK phone box in 1993 that would eat his £1 coin so quickly would be a sex line.

There are no commercials allowed in France for opiates, which are prescription only.
