To be frank, NOBODY LIED TO US MORE THAN OURSELVES.

And I am as guilty for lying to my self and spreading the lies too.

Closemindedness has certain comfort about it. It is not at all adventurous. I close up my brain when I feel threatened about a position/opinion. If the other side states their opinion in a non confrontational way, then I am more willing to listen/accept their position.

 There is another 'worthy lie' that I would like to add here. As a young lad seeking to buy a new needle for my record player, I was told to get a diamond needle instead of a sapphire one because, "The diamond needle will never need replacing." But at the cost of $13, I couldn't afford it.

Many of the diamond Pfansteel (close spelling but probably wrong) needles that I sold were $9.95.  But the more complicated ones were about $13 as you were quoted.

Just got an email from Parts ConneXion, with a Furtech Destat II at discount.  It is only $350 plus shipping from Canada.  Or you can buy a $30 humidifier for your room and save $320.

It is a sickness!  There are those out there preying on you.  Be aware!
