I think RTD has a history of being flip and/or ungrateful to his fans or viewers. Maybe it's just his personality or how he comes off when he's off the cuff. But having seen him speak and having seen, say, John, speaking at the exact same event answering the exact same questions, there's a world of difference. Both disagreed with the questioner's contention, but John didn't take them down or simply blow off their concerns.
Russell just doesn't ever seem to see himself as potentially in error or in need of improvement. Some of the comments he makes about how quickly he dashes things off, etc... just make me want to yell "I can tell, and not in a good way!"
Still, no one is perfect. I just wish he'd get a little better at playing nice. JB's got it down.
