That's done it! Now you've upset everyone on the list except Eugen. ;)
Personally, what I find is that people are smart at different things.
And some smart people are really dumb when they venture outside their
field of expertise.
If you are not an expert yourself it sometimes takes a while to learn
when somebody really knows their subject or when they are just
bullshitting (to use a phrase I heard somewhere).
