This may be controversial and I am posting it out of frustration so, if my opinion offends you, I apologise and suggest you just move on to another thread. I have found this particular forum very useful over the years in terms of following trends and developments and gathering information. I have also tried to pass on information gleaned where I can and I have enjoyed many exchanges with some very decent and knowledgable people, but it seems to be increasingly evolving into endless debate and arguments over relatively trivial things to which there will never be a ‘right answer’ because there are just too many variables involved behind people’s subjective opinions.
The two main problem categories I’d classify as ‘To do, or not to do’ and ‘Mine is Best!’
In terms of my saying there will often never be a ‘right answer to the topics being argued over, consider this. A few years ago, my wife showed me a photo of a dress and asked me what colour it was. I replied white and gold. She said ‘no way, it’s blue and black’. Apparently, the photo had provoked fierce debate and argument and people fell largely into two main camps, just as my wife and I had, but there were other fringe groups on top of that. The photo to me illustrates how and why there can never be agreement on certain things.
