Over the years I've taken a lot of heat for defending Margulis.
When I read "Professional Photoshop" I had no idea who these
"calibrationists" were that Dan gets so riled about.
I've since met a few of them, on the various lists that I
partake in. <g> I won't mention names.
I agree that Margulis (like any other "expert") should be
taken with a few grains of salt. But I'm way grateful for
the lessons I've learned from Dan, and I believe these
lessons have saved me loads of grief over the years.
The grief I do experience is with making "color management"
work, and arguing with the CM gurus.
