Figured I'd quote myself. I don't think this site is teeming with stupid people, and I really don't think it's appropriate to be calling someone stupid simply because they don't agree with the opinion of a venerable master of the art.

POST EDIT: I shouldn't generalize. I have seen plenty of well-reasoned critiques by well-respected & talented folks. Those times where no reason was given for the "jeez, you're an idiot" kind of remark just seem to loom large in my memory.
