Aha! I see. You are now a judge of characters. Well, I have scarce patience weth

It does not. A smart guy also does not use anymore that old sallie  about
"constructive criticism" that has been used so often when a critic does not
like. Then it is "non constructive criticism". Respect what I should do or
write, the only judge is myself. Everyone here write about his opinions on the

you have not realized that.
