I appreciate both your guys points. On the one hand, even if someone is giving crap advice, it is OK to let it stand so folks can investigate on their own. That is why I never understood the common courtesy thing to put IMO after everything you say. To me EVERYTHING you say is your opinion, your own view point, except direct quotes and scientific "facts". Reiterating "IMO" seems arbitrary. On the other hand, respect should be given to folks that are more experienced. Respect not to be confused with blind alligence or butt kissing. I also agree, even if you studied with Paco de Lucia, or told by him directly, doesn't mean you are right. Maybe you are, but you could be seriously confused about what you think you understand the real maestro is doing or said. So when it comes to refering to what someone else said or wrote, Romerito is right, that does give a lot of validity to an arguement. BUT lets be honest, few are doing proper quote techniques on the internet. Like pull the quote, using a proper citation. Sometimes there a links which is good. It can be "so and so once said..." or from some interview "I read somewhere". But pulling quotes out of context to help your arguement is a common occurance on the internet I have seen. And it is not always meant in a bad way of course. Like the other day I was talking about the Ramirez book where he talks about varnish and someone caught me miss using the term "shellac". If I had done a proper citation I would have caught my own mistake. Anyway, back to picados. Ricardo
