    Ah well, I assume you don’t think “Luddites” is name-calling either then.

    [Gary Pollard]Ah well, I assume you don’t think “Luddites” is name-calling either then.

    Fair point, but I wouldn’t get my panties in a twist over it either.

    Unless your entire argument against people who think FCPX isn’t the end-all, be-all rests simply on an assertion that they are Luddites. Hasn’t been outright said here, but more than not-so-subtly implied.

    So, tit-for-tat.

    Not the entire assertion no, and as I said I too see the limitations in FCP X.

    “The Luddites were a social movement of 19th-century English textile artisans who protested – often by destroying mechanized looms – against the changes produced by the Industrial Revolution, which they felt were leaving them without work and changing their way of life.”

    Frankly I have rather more respects for the genuine Luddites than for glee clubs. Because the genuine Luddites were right.
