Switch to Selenium or quit worshiping Satin and start worshiping the
gang of five!
Seriously the only people who benefit from this concept of hierarchy are
the people at the top of it and wimps who have no minds of their own.
If we all refuse the urge to be intimidated or intimidate we all benefit.
Those of us who are experts in certain areas of photography should
obtain the respect they deserve without it being thrown in our face.
You've got to pick your own experts. If they say something you feel is
wrong argue the point don't argue the person. Or hit the delete.
