Hello, my name is Joe.

I haven't shot my room in 48 hours. (wait for applause)

So, how do you know when you've gone too far analyzing your room?

Here are some clues:

1. Your alarm clock is programed to play a sine sweep.

2. You curse uncontrollably at the sight of a ladder.

3. Your wife/girlfriend is mad at you because you have taken all the mirrors from the bathroom.


Everyone, please add you own clues to the list!

Hi Joe.

When you spend more time testing your room than actually working with clients

KEEP COMING BACK!!!

The 12 Steps:

1)We admitted we were powerless over testing - that our lives had become unmanageable.

2)Came to believe that room treatment is greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

3)Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of Gearslutz as we understood Jules.

4)Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of our room.

5)Admitted to Jules, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs of using foam.

6)Were entirely ready to have Jules remove all these defects of our room.

7)Humbly asked Jules to remove our foam or unusable treatment from our room.

8)Made a list of all clients we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.

9)Made direct amends to such clients wherever possible, except when they did not pay their bill or where just a major pain in the ass.

10)Continued to take personal inventory of our room.

11)Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with Gearslutz as we understood Jules, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.

12)Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to other people treating their rooms and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

LOL.......excellent Glenn!

Here's one more for my list:

4. Your at a restaurant and find yourself more interested in the ceiling treatment than what's on the menu.

Hi my name is Glenn. I carry postcard size "acoustic advice" cards with me and give them out to restaurant owners when I don't enjoy a good dinner due to bad acoustics in the room.

You think I am kidding, but I do. Actually my wife carries them, but....................................................

Congratulations Glenn! You have achieved Gold Status in RTA.

You've said these exact words:

"Just one more bass trap, and I'm done"
