No...if you read closely (my poor wording/punctuation), I'm saying that I
intentionally distort signals coming from my microphone...so that someone
trying to "restore" tapes on which I played back in 2003 wouldn't know if
the distortion was due to the recording process or in the signal as picked
up and recorded (the latter is correct) and thus wouldn't know whether or
not to correct the distortion!
