    What a cop-out! Re: Andy

    Easy enough to criticize someone's taste then when called on it say -- "oops, it's not my job."

    It's not her job either to write based on your or anybody's taste (or lack of it).

    This is a big world, Andy, takes all of us to contribute to it. I have no dispute with your taste - just your lamentable lack of respect for anyone else's. I wasn't even specifically talking to you; original post was a general missive asking people to give definite reasons - instead of hurling slurs.

    Ironic then, how sensitive you appear to be when even your critcism of someone is criticized. I'd say it's quite telling - isn't it?
