1. It was never my intention to, and I did not, judge whether or not LZ is a noble person. I merely wrote that LZ might not be as noble a person as she made herself out to be in her post.
2. It is, indeed, noble of someone to spend time writing up experiences and sharing them with others, with the intention of benefiting the latter. Reading LZ's post, however, this reader, for one, could not help feeling that LZ was, for lack of a better word, showing off, in more ways than one.
In writing the above, I also sensed that I ran the risk of being called rude, ignoble, or worse. But, that is a risk I could afford to take, knowing that I hardly know LZ (except from reading her posts on this forum), certainly bear no grudges against her whatsoever, and stand to gain nothing but notoriety for speaking my mind.
