Mr. Charette discusses some abstruse "feeling" as though I am discussing
emotional feeling. Again, it appears he missed the point of what I
stated. I am discussing feeling as it relates to response and resistance
in sound - and that is quite easy to feel - much as one can feel the
difference between soft and hard, cold and warm, rough and smooth. It is
a tangible thing - not an emotional thing.

I wish that he would rid himself of his dislike of me when he discusses
issues that I have posted about - in that way, he could be more objective
in viewing and understanding what I am saying.
