i agree entirely with baraka guru and i have thought much the same way for most of the time that i've been here at tfp.
most of what you get in response to these posts is a version of what roland barthes called "deaf nd dumb criticism" which he summed up as "i don't get it therefore you are an idiot"--the version that is common here is "i am lazy therefore your posts suck."
sometimes i don't know why i bother with this place, and that sort of nonsense is a big reason for it.
