It's *not analog*!!! Jorn, You are ignoring a fundamental aspect of reality -- there is no such thing in the physical world as "digital" (modulo some quantum effects that are not relevant to my discussion). Everything, including the etchings on CD's are analog. A CD player may choose to *interpret* these etching in a digital manner, but the etchings are still analog. So, every time you listen to a CD it is subtly altered by the read laser. Of course, the laser is affected by everything happening in the room, including your vibes. Thus, your vibes are etched in some faint fashion on a CD, every time you listen to it. Now because of the digital manner in which the CD player works, these faint vibe recordings might not make it from the CD to the speakers on subsequent listenings. But, of course, this is not necessary. These faint vibes don't need to be amplified -- they cause subtle vibrations in the air around the laser beam. The vibrations cause the entire CD player to vibrate subtly with your vibes. This of course has some effects on the DAC's in the CD player, subtly altering the sound that is sent to the speakers. This effect is not necessary (though it is nice to have this additional reinforcement) because an individual who is attuned can clearly and unmistakably sense the vibrations that radiate directly from the CD player. In fact, an individual who has trained him or herself to be very sensitive can feel the vibes by merely looking at the light reflected off of the CD. Just open your mind, Jorn, to these vibes, and you will feel them! |>oug
