So with this latest set of insults, still with no actual answer, I take it you don't know actually know what "organic" means and you have no backup to your fact claim about the hygroscopic nature of cotton or paper?
This is leaving a sour taste as it is so petty.

I still couldn't get an answer, so it appears that it's the usual bluster-and-retreat. Would you care to take a swing at it?
So, maybe we could put up a faint dotted line or two and say that:
Organic material is that which has evolved through natural selection to provide a specific benefit and that it is unmodified by any entity not originally involved in that selection process. Hence they would have an original basis for arising in anti-entropic activities
Natural materials would then be organic in origin, modified beyond their original organic state, but not changed in basic characteristic or removed from the chemical classifications that obtained, when they were in their organic state.
Supernatural materials would then mean natural materials that had been modified beyond their natural state but were no longer classified within their original chemical class.
Un-organic materials would be any pro or neutral entropic materials that have been modified to become anti-entropic materials, but used in the processes that created the original organic materials.
Non-organic materials would then be pro or neutral entropic materials that were not developed by the natural processes of random selection, but are still used in an anti-entropic method.
Radioactive materials, as always, including emissions by either fdegrove or SY, when orbiting each other in close proximity.

Your conclusion is too logical Bud. I like my made up definition better. Organic = things made with poop.
And nothing invented after the 19th century can come within 10ft of it or it's tainted - guess that means you'll have to buy everything from my imaginary organic audiophile company.

That's end of November, beginning of December.
The local beer is pretty awful, but there's a place that Pete Millett took me to downtown that has an amazing selection. Ginger Man.
Back on topic, I may have run into a killer plastic dielectric. Not used commercially yet. I'm trying to gather more info before I let the cat out of the bag.
Is it polymethylpentene?

This reminds me...
I think you'd enjoy the attached .doc file. This one is timeless, IMO.
On topic:
Audiophiles spending up to $700 on a 3.3uF cap in a blinkered attempt to make their valve amplifier sound less crap:

It never ceases to amaze me just how much room for improvement there is in audiophile-certified electronics

At least these caps don't seem to be as microphonic as some of the other Teflon jobs. The pricing is, cough, cough, ridiculous.
as microphonic?
For $700 I'd prefer better performance in this regard to a $2 cap, but I'm just funny that way.
EDIT:
So how many V-caps have you bought then?

G, none. That's rent money. I was given two of them by another forum member, who liked my past suggestions on rational design of dielectrics and expressed his generosity with Teflon caps of various sorts. That immediately suggested a project, which lay dormant for the past couple of years. Then I got off my butt and built it. It will be a fun party tool at ETF this year.
No mistaking the lack of content.Could you just be mistaken as being cynical?
