If it helps, I put up with many people who can't even spell intimidated correctly. That's an achievement by itself.
And if I'm truly stupid, how can I determine if what I'm saying is/looks stupid or not? Ignorance is far from bliss. Especially on a site such as this where there are many with well-honed opinions and those who provoke deep thought in a subject in which I am unfamiliar. Naturally I am intimidated by those who are capable of more than superficial thoughts on a subject. I prefer to lurk threads and not post for this reason. Although there is only so much one can learn about it this way, it's safer than asking questions because doing such leaves you vulnerable to attack.
