Dear Peter (Meijer):

Physicists have always tended to be idealists -- you are no exception.
But newer human auditory data are showing, inreasingly frequently,
just how little we may know about the way the auditory system handles
time-varying information. Before we jump into modelling, we should
learn more about this monster of a system that is non-time-invariant and
nonlinear, masquarading as a linear time-invariant system (for suprathreshold
inputs, at least).

Don't expect too much from us, mortals.
