You'd be right only if you weren't wrong. That being said, we're 
not going to talk to the trolls any more. While it might be amusing 
it's a waste of our time, and our readers time.

We will continue to write reviews and will continue to be as honest 
and truthful as possible during our reviews. Likewise, if any of 
our legitimate readers have any questions or comments about our 
blog, we'd very much appreciate them. We especially want people to 
comment if they have worked with a vendor that we have assessed, we 
want to know your experience. Other than that, thanks for your time 
and thanks for reading!
