Hey, how about this one: suppose you tell everyone that the XYZ
mouthpiece is superior, and that you have proof based on extensive
experience. Then after a number of people have believed you and gone
out and purchased them, only to find out that they are a load of crap,
you tell them "Yes, but I think that there was potential there that
they could have been good mouthpieces and that I will stand by my
earlier statements that they are superior"
