In reply to Vigier:
> Your ignorance is showing; usually best not to display it in public,
What's showing is my ability to take a balanced view, with a post that opened with a broad rejection of all developments of this nature while highlighting the considerable existing blots on the proposed site. The balance of likes and dislikes would suggest that many others understood the nuance, while others chose to register their disapproval without resorting to insult. I confess to not falling under the spell of the Cairngorm plateau but I'm a big fan of the charming villages, ancient woodlands, bubbling streams and picturesque waterfalls of the region.
It might have been better to respond more thoughtfully than to launch an ad hominem attack, particularly since your claiming of the eco-intellectual high ground is accompanied by a punctuation error. If there's one thing that UKC takes more seriously than the despoiling of a national park, it's poor punctuation (joke).
Edit: punctuation
