@VulcanTourist You may have a different experience than I. Most people are more than willing to figure out things that don't work, and they use about 10% of my energy... the 10% that isn't usually takes the other 90%. So them being few doesn't really make them low impact... I also have this notion that the loudest, most obnoxious people get to represent their whole group (whatever people that group is made of). When it feels like everyone who belongs to this or that group is as bad as the baddest specimens... that could actually be a judgmental view of that group...
