Regarding age, age=/=skill. You could be 11, and a better mechanic than 30 year old that hasn't touched a wrench. Experience, expertise, and ingenuity are what measures here. Not age. Not dick length. Not clout, not a bunch people with little man complexes. Vincent, while probably skilled in whatever it is he does, is a prick. Plain and simple. He might have some right answers, and good advice. John V? A prick. Killer expertise, experience, and an ingenious dude. No problems with that. What really should have happened here was:
Vincent:You should probably research a little bit regarding what advantages you get from swapping, in the first place.
Everyone else: Helpful suggestions
Vincent:What did you learn?
Everyone else:Crush it.
ZVOLV:Hook it up to a labscope
Then let the thread drop into oblivion so the person who's reading this on google in three years doesn't waste an entire hour reading the circlejerk this thread is. I'm not helping or offering any suggestions because I don't know anything that hasn't been said or suggested, plus I'm 27, so I really, just barely understand how to open doors inside a dwelling, let alone stop a horseless carriage, right?
