Please, take time to reread my comments and you'll see that none of what you write is in the above you quoted. I'll repost the pertinent part.
"If someone wishes to complain about the WA garbage Canon makes for glass, they should start a thread with that heading. As example one can use the following as a heading title; "Why I'm so mad at Canon for the WA garbage they "force" on us."
You can start a thread, in the Canon forum, and complain all day long, until the cows come home, are milked, fed, put up for the night and start mooing again in the morning for all I care. In fact I encourage it as it would be so cathartic for many here. The pain Canon's WA designs must be causing folks is almost too unbearable to think of to the point that laws should encouraged to be passed to stop this obvious abuse that Canon has caused so many. Maybe you can get Canada's Minister of Commerce to look into this matter and act as an advocate on your behalf.
"It seems to me that this thread was for that specific purpose."
That wasn't the threads purpose. The thread's heading, for those who seem to miss this point, is calling for comments about the newly announced 16-35II and it's not a thread for folks to come and relieve themselves of all their pent up, interpersonal, emotional problems they're having due to their frustration with the design of Canon WA's that they're just not happy with.
"Canon's WA lense quality is soooooo bad."
"How bad is it?"
"It's sooooo bad that I had to make an appointment with my optometrist cause I thought my eyesight was going from bad to worse and needed a new prescription."
Buddah boomp! Kissssssssssh! (Vaudeville drum roll)
Ahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! (laugh track for stupid jokes when stuck in a surreal loop)
The moderator, Jeff, started the thread and here's his opening comment.
"By request, a 'Master' thread for discussing the new EF 1635mm f/2.8L II USM lens, announced today."
Nope, nothing written by the OP about this being a thread for whining and complaining about how unhappy one is with Canon's WA design efforts. How many times do folks need to say they're unhappy with Canon's WA lenses before the word "cliche" begins to look like it has a place, every time this dissatisfaction is voiced?
Canon makes sucky WA lenses (cliche).
Canon's WA lenses are costing me money cause I have to buy exotics (cliche).
Canon needs to give us better WA lense design (cliche).
"...and let the rest of us get on with our constructive discussion..."
Actually, it is you who is out of sync with the thread's stated constructive purpose which the title and the OP's comments are failingly trying to point out, So please, I beseech you, show me mercy as I'm out of meds and the pharmacy doesn't open until nine tomorrow and I don't know if I can hold out until then without taking it out on all my cheap a$$ Canon consumer grade lenses Canon forced me to buy via their very well thought out, clandestine, subliminal sales techniques.
Please, be kind to an old veteran and provide me with relief and start a thread of your own within the Canon forum. And by all means, for exactly the purpose which you suggest, one will finally be able to come and relieve themselves, emotionally; constructively complaining in unison ("Horton Hear's a Who!"; Whoville) about all aspects of Canon's horribly failed WA efforts to their hearts delight and folks can once again come to this thread, expecting to find comments which meet the OP's posted and stated intent so I can once and for all remove this stupid aluminum hat; the neighbors are beginning to talk and this point is causing my wife embarrassment; she don't like that. That would be most kind of you.

I completely disagree with your comments, and you have no right to dictate what other people can and cannot post about in this thread. Quite simply, we are talking about the new lens in relation to the previous model and if you cannot get your head around that logic...
I have said nothing about other glass, it is you who continue to rabble on about this, you have no right to limit what any of us choose to post, and I for one resent your attempts to do so. You need to step back and re-read your posts, they are getting childish and boring.
