agrees in general I suppose I'm more in the big picture camp; that was always a criticism of my uni essays, that they took in a vast overview but needed more on the detail. Likewise in other things, I sort of look around a subject, but delving into the details doesn't bother me. It's when I get utterly, completely put off doing that by other people who clearly have already read everything on the planet and why should I bother when they can lecture everything at me? I think we're all a bit guilty of sweeping statements- some commenters on the recent class memes, for example, have proved that they can open their mouths and let shit come out, more or less, without using the brain or the foot to mouth reflex. Where possible, I research to augment my personal experiences/views/biases- but I get the feeling some folk down here just want to tell me white is black, get over it. (And if you are on her flist- I forget- please read 1ngi's recent fantastic post on this sort of thing). I'm reminded I owe you an email about foods- and if you'll indulge me, I'd like to forward the email I sent to Ingrid which might expand more than a limited LJ comment will. :P
