Aaron, I wasn't criticizing anyone, and I wasn't referring to people who don't have time to submit to the PUG or simply choose not to. My comments were in reference to those who recently said that they do not submit to or comment on the PUG because it is full of inferior work. Mostly, however, I was trying to use a little humor, and a little sarcasm, to try to persuade a few more people to participate in the PUG. Even if it isn't a good instument for serious photographic work, it still can be fun and interesting if people submit photos, view the photos, and comment when they have time.
