		<description><![CDATA[I frequent an excellent on-line audio community called HDD Audio. Its drawback is that most of the members are in the UK, so they&#8217;re in bed by 6 or 7, my time. The advantage is that they are audiophiles, not audiophools. The conversation there is reality-based and driven by a deep love of music, served [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=grumpyoldarts.wordpress.com&amp;blog=7074943&amp;post=198&amp;subd=grumpyoldarts&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

I&#8217;ve been reading audiophile pages on the internet, and while this sort of thing shouldn&#8217;t bother me, well, it elevates my grumpiness. What&#8217;s the problem?
