Well, since I’m not the head of a major Decatur festival, I guess I should keep my opinions to myself.

And let me also point out that I believe this was also a critique about myself. All too often people seem to give high levels of credence to this site due to sheer quantity. I’ve probably even benefited from it to some extent. Now that’s talking out both sides of your mouth!

Human is as human does, I suppose.

An immediate reaction to a photograph is of different opinion-al worth than the first-hand observations of the head of a major Decatur festival.

It has nothing to do with positive vs. negative.

“quality of opinion is more important quantity” – would you be so kind as to explain that in terms of negative vs. positive opinions about this particular courtyard decor?

We should never forget that quality of opinion is more important than quantity. I have trouble remembering this myself sometimes, but it’s dang true…and too often cast off as being counterpoint to our sacred “all men are created equal”.

It’s not. They’re completely complementary.
