The one thing which is quite obvious is Floyd's arrogant denigration of anybody who disagrees with him, interprets what he says literally, or fails to discern what it is he actually means from his arcane diatribes. He dismisses software and technics he does & won't use as some sort of lesser species.

No wonder he has to live where he does, and I am sure that he is the most respected and sought out technical blabber mouth in Barrow.

There are other folks who question Floyd's credentials and some of the stuff he says.

Is there anyone who doesn't? He's an ignorant moron.

This was a discussion which when it came up in rec.photo.digital fell apart quite quickly when Floyd told Tony Cooper he was wrong regarding "Street Photography". It seems he also tried to fly his concept in dpreview forums. <http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/50358552>

Yeah, I remember that idiocy from him.

Then there is this Barrow local who seems to have issues with Floyd. <http://majikimaje.com/WordPress/2010/04/28/floyd-davidson-barrows-pathological-liar/>

This just proves so much. I have no problem seeing Floyd as fat disgruntled amateur photographer that got dragged along to some hell-hole he doesn't want to be where the only computer he can get access to are old 486 PCs that can only run ancient versions of Linux. This would explain so much about his feelings of inferiority and reluctance to knowledge and information.
