Actually, they have. There have been several posters who have made blanket statements about the inherent inferiority of country music and blues based on infantile and ignorant generalizations that I, for one, take extreme offense to. You can have a personal opinion about music or an artist, but don't expand your judgments, whether they are justified or not, into a statement of fact.
