Exactly my point.

I would much rather come on here and get your advice on what bar to go to in Hong Kong as opposed to making an account on another forum to get advice from someone I've never heard of and know nothing about.

Hell, you and Golfer have helped me out a helluva lot with my travel issues. So much so that I just mailed 3 SkyClub passes to Golfer yesterday as a thank you.

perfect example of why travel advice here is crap

I would not qualify your time as a drug mule in SE Asia, nor that 6 months in jail in Laos as "extensive travel".....it surely wasnt a well-rounded experience worthy of recommending restaurants, or sights to see, unless you want to grade out the various back-alley clinics, window-less vans and human traffic crates you spent the majority of your time in.
