And more than once I have referred people to Jens-Peer because he does
indeed have a deep knowledge of underlying graphics algorithms and formats -
things that I know little about. And more than that, I am always learning
things from the many people who participate in MathGroup - from both
old-timer gurus and from those posting "simple" questions.

I think one should avoid such generalizations when they concern people  
other than the person making this sort of statement. I personally do  
not claim to know much about graphics, but I have in the past used  
J.P. Kuska's MathGL 3D I would say he does know an awful lot about  
Mathematica graphics (and graphics in general). Jens' knowledge may be  
of a different kind from David Parks's knowledge but I can see no  
grounds at all for dismissing it in such a causal way.
