Without demeaning any of our fellow amateurs, I often think that the 
*ability* to understand and appreciate the difference between a 
homebrewed Hartley and a "ricebox" is one of the main things that 
differentiates us, and gives us pride in this niche of the hobby.   And 
that is truly something to be thankful for.
