I take offense at this notion that only certain select people are
"reliable" proofers. I never get "hold fors", which is fine by me. It
doesn't mean I'm just some careless jiffy-proofer. I understand
submitters don't want the careless proofers, but I think there are a lot
more reliable folks out there than some people seem to think. It just
smells to me like in-crowd foolishness.
