dunno about the rest of youse but i turn down the stereo when trying to find an address because i'm about to be looking around at everything but the road and i want to hear any changes in my environment, which is sort of the same thing, but includes the substantial interactions between my car and the rest of the world. i do get changes in audio from visual stimulation but i think some of that is also related to microadjustments of muscles in my ears, which i would guess are related to how the optic and audio systems have trained together over the years to know where to look when you hear a sound and know how best to focus on the sounds of what you're looking at

A bit off-topic and yes I need to do more googling of my own on this but is there a centralized community for Linux Audio? I'm trying to get things moving in Ubuntu Studio but always run into yet another brick wall. I have been on the Ubuntu/Ubuntu Studio forums but I didn't find a good "Read Me First" overview on audio. Currently I'm trying to get an M-Audio Axiom 49 to respond to any of the various synth apps and although I think I have it patched in through Jack I don't have any luck getting it to actually make any noises. Since Jack is recognizing it, I'm sure it's my lack of understanding how the various applications connect to each other as well as how to actually get started in a synth app. Are there any walkthrough sites or youtube tutorials or any other good resources you're aware of? Most of what I find focuses on a single component (e.g. Jack) but doesn't give me a good overview on how I'm linking the various applications so I can figure out exactly where I'm screwing this all up.

Just because an argument is idiotic doesn't mean someone hasn't posed it. He saying he's heard the arguments in conversation, not stating that anyone in particular in this conversation are accused of holding them. "If all dumb arguments are strawmen, then only dumb strawmen will have arguments." yup pretty sure that's how that quote goes
