WOW,

Perhaps. Maybe he's a nice person but he did not stop to think before he spouted off, and when given the chance to re-think, he simply would not. Maybe the next time you see him you can tell him that I really am not as confrontational as I might seem--only get riled up when someone becomes annoying.

What got me is that he completely misunderstood my post, which should have tipped me off that he is a lawyer. When a lawyer either does not understand the facts, or does not want to acknowledge them, he/she goes into obfuscation mode.

The simple fact is--in many cases on that site--a lot of those people are insecure (and with money) about their own place with wine and so they follow (some rabidly) a guru and his numbers. Plus, many of those people don't consider anything other than a few lofty wines worthy of their attention.

Every so often I just want to make waves for them. I'd still, however, love to know, if Mr. Parker really believes what he posted about his rating system who then is his audience.
