Dee, I can understand that kind of sentiment for things other than

"hobby"
or "interest" related items. Perhaps those who chose to wait until

testing
philosophies met their expectations/requirements/likes, did so because

they
were very busy succeeding at financial matters, like work, family,

church,
etc.?


Then rather than demanding a change of requirements, then they should wait
to pursue the hobby until they have time for it. I've many times put a
variety of things on hold for higher priorities such as family and job. I
didn't expect the rest of the world to change because of my wants.

No one has as much time available as they would like so they have to make
choices. That's true in all aspects of one's life including hobbies.

Should I really expect to be first chair clarinet in our community band (a
voluntary hobby group) when I don't put in the time to practice enough to

be
good enough. No. Same with other hobby activities. Wanting something,

even
in a hobby, is not sufficient. You've got to put in the effort.

I think I'll just agree to disagree with you. We come from two different
trains of thought.
