FWIW - I think Ben is right on, and good for him!
We all started out knowing nothing, and we all learned and moved on in different directions - as far as we're concerned, whatever works for you is cool with us!
Personally I feel sorry for Ewan and Charlie - they've taken a lot of stick for what was for them a big adventure - they had as little idea as ALL of us did when we first hit the road. By the time they'd done two of them, they were probably as sick of the hype and crap as I know I would have been. I have even more sympathy now for them now that we have done our DVD series - I know how hard it is to get a good "take" on video and how many times you have to do it - it sucks and I'd hate it on a trip.
Let's remember to be TOLERANT of each other and appreciate that all of us have something to give and something to learn, and we ALL have different ideas on the "right" way to to do ANYTHING! Actually having said that, I think there is no "right" way - there's only ways that work for whomever is doing it.
Chris, who are you accusing of trolling? It's unclear to me - I don't think anyone here is trolling particularly, just a lot of emotion thrown out! Amazing how E & C are probably THE most emotional topic here. Perhaps a lot of envy?
