My reading comprehension must be way off.
I didn't read any negativity, just different observations.
My bit of nostalgia, my favorite TV commercial: 9 out of 10 doctors recommend Lucky Strikes.
Doctors touting the health benefit of smoking cigarettes...now that's some nostalgia.
I also remember a wheel chair bound doctor who chain smoked while he examined me for some malady or other...good times.
I didn't think we were being negative either. Expecting everyone to get all excited isn't very realistic and opinions will certainly vary. That's what forums are all about.
