No defering :)

Arguably, it's people like me who should be saying "How can we push this 
forward then?" because new ideas being stamped on by the 'old-timers' is 
a bad model to follow. So no idea should be rejected until it really has 
been discussed by as many as join in.

I also tend toward finding the holes in schemes. I look to how things 
will break, be exploited, be abused before I consider the benefits - so 
at the start of any project (be that in Real Life or online) I am always 
the negative one.
