Oh, don't just quit. Take a vacation and come back after awhile. I 
think you write intelligently and interestingly and I'd miss you. 
There are certainly a lot of children on the forum who think that 
uncritical praise of everything ARR ever does is a good idea, but 
they just don't know any better. And there are some mental illnesses 
manifesting here of Rahman-Worship that the composer himself would 
certainly condemn. So it's nice to hear comment that is both 
appreciative and critical and I hope you keep it up. I agree with you 
that becoming aged leads to the ability appraise and not just praise. 
Next you just have to learn to ignore the whining of the kids.
