I'd just like to add that whether someone is being fully negative about the FTO's or not, it is always useful to be brought back down to earth sometimes. I've occasionally had my head runaway with ideas only to read some bad experiences and "goings ons" and realise that everything needs careful consideration.
It's not all fairytales so don't expect that to be all you hear, at the same time, persistantly putting people/places down for the hell of it doesn't help too much either.
It would be nice to hear the good stories, AND the bad stories, without the hint of bitterness that is often there at the same time!
