To me he didn't sound like an idiot, but "technically challenged". John Lennon once asked Martin or Emerick if he could record his voice direct without using microphone. Was he an idiot? He obviously knew where to place a Gm or A chord in relation to once another, but that's a different skill.

I believe the fish posts were merely a humorous allusion to the old saying "If you give a man a fish he will eat for a day. If you teach a man to fish he will eat for a lifetime."

Somehow the saying "You dont sound like a dick, but you sound like an idiot" doesn't have the same ring to it ...

But then I'm not f***ing Emily Post.
