As if their opinion is more informed or relevant than the opinions and perspectives of the members of our community.
Exactly, especially given the way it was posted with a link followed by the most incendiary paragraph in the article.

I wonder if the same link and paragraph were posted on other forums. Im sure some of the folks here would know if they are on the other sites. This is the only site I frequent...

As for Garmirian, what he stated could be taken in several contexts. He doesn't make a bad cigar, but my tastes have moved toward stronger smokes where Tatuaje and Illusione are a great fit (as are several others).
