Good Lord, Andreas ... Rox thanked those who "illuminat[ed] [her] about this art form."
Who are you to so viscously deride her for that list being incomplete. Those who illuminated her are not necessarily those you've listed in some manifesto somewhere. Yes mentioning Brittany would have been nice, but you could have said that in a more appropriate way. Do you even bother to learn anything about the people you deride before you do so? I don't think Rox has a spiteful bone in her body .. a simple "Nice video, by the way Brittany really deserves a shout out here as well" would have been all it takes. ... and people wonder why the mood/usefulness of this list comes in to question at times ... geesh ... ... here I'll do it for you: "Nice video, Rox! I loved the unexpected entrance of Lexi! By the way, everyone, Brittany has worked really hard along with me at http://videoblogging.info/lumiere/ and she really deserves a shout out here as well. Thanks, and keep up the great work everyone!" ... geesh.
