Ultrashock, a breathe of fresh air or sustenance?

It suddenly occurred to me that if taken out of context, the vast majority of my posts regarding Ultrashock (the interface) would appear to be negative even though my intent would be just the opposite.

That's when I realized that intrinsic in my complaints about Ultrashock is an implied respect that goes without saying. That is to say that I take for granted that there is nothing like Ultrashock anywhere and life without Ultrashock would be...well...(shudder) unbearable.

I take this for granted the way that we all take breathing for granted. So, when I drive through the town of Greeley, Colorado (which wreaks of fertilizer), I'll complain about the air--that doesn't mean I would rather not breathe.

In other words, just because I complain about something in these forums, doesn't mean that I could live without them. I have tons of respect for all the hard work and genius that has gone into making this my favorite place on the web.

I would rather give up breathing than give up
Ultrashock.
