I took the time to reread the first post in this thread, my first impression and my second were the same. I felt that someone that works 12 to 14 hours a day like I do (but only 6 days a week mostly) doesn't really have a great deal of time to write in, even if he wanted to do so.
It just seemed to me that Alex felt as though he was mislead by a website and wanted to share what he felt was incorrect. I never got the impression that Alex was out to bash Tom's clarinets for one reason, to sell his own instruments.
I also never got that feeling that Alex was some elitist looking down on the pathetic, untalented members of this board so that he could educate us all with his superior knowledge. Sorry, I got the impression that he felt the clarinets he had in his hand were not the top quality that Tom makes them out to be on his site, that's it.
As for qualifications, I have no idea who most of the folks are on this board with the exceptions of those with names of national recognition like Greg Smith, David Blumberg, Ed Palanker, Francois Kloc; all of these men have rather noted careers so I do know who they are. Everyone deserves the same respect on this or any other board unless the tone dips to a level of insults and mud slinging, that writer would certainly fall to a respect level of zero in my book.
