Just remember Schumi... "advice is worth what you pay for it."
My experience is that when you ask for advice on the Internet... whether it be about spark plugs or relationships the votes usually fall 50/50 yea/nay so in the end YOU have to decide what is best for yourself.
And while getting independent unbiased advice may not be a bad thing... you have to ask yourself where that advice is coming from... does that person have the same values and world view as you do?
That and...
When in doubt... whip it out...
