ysss I won't defend responses on an individual basis. There are too many extremists on either side of this silly old war who refuse to exhibit any consideration for others.

But I respectfully submit that anyone coming to an enthusiast site expecting pure objectivity is severely deluding themselves. It's improbable. So while I won't defend certain incidents and aspects of the never-ending debate, I will vigorously defend the right of this forum in toto to operate as an enthusiast site where members shouldn't be made to feel guilty for overlooking shortcomings of a device they find mostly useful.
