I was trolling, figuring that if so many couldn't recognize the unique context in which the comments in the OP were made they might not recognize the same regarding rifle actions.

You're supposed to tell me all about all the NA game you've killed with the rifles he suggested were sub-par for a PH in Africa to prove how wrong he is.

Or maybe someone would if I were to start a thread using that article as OP? Of course now I've given up the element of surprise...

That one cracked me up.

I am a banker and I got bawled out the other day for low interest rates that don't encourage people to save. Not only did this gentleman fail to recognize that I wasn't a member of the Fed (much less the chair) but he also seemed to think that all bankers agree low interest rates in the best interest of our business.

I just say that to suggest that, as you well know I am sure, we all experience that sort of I'll-informed criticism.
