hehehe .... imo i think the author is either .... a damn convincing liar

or .... his ears are severely defective thus deprieving him the
luxury of musical pleasure , the gift of nature .

if you can hear the difference .... why bother about one who can't ?

nobody is born perfect .... some , it is just the ears !!
