A couple of observations from a long-time lug lurker:

Christian's comment lacked style. Eric's response was full of character. They both
have the right to speak.

The web is what it is, and once this is accepted, it can be a useful tool. This
thread is similar to a past thread about the comparison of looking at actual prints
to looking at reproductions in books. One problem I see is that anyone with a
computer thinks they can be a digital imager (in 1980, it was  anyone with an AE1
thought they were a photographer). Digital imaging is as complicated as darkroom
work.
