Actually I have a reputation for being thick-thighed, for whatever
that's worth 8^).
re: Stewart's comments, well, that's just Stewart being Stewart,
right? Not like it was Lord Granger or somebody... 8^)
I don't think it was the "I can't believe..." as much as what
came after that - the implication is that people who CLAIM to
be into XYZ should really be discussing this. That feels like
a judgment to me.
