Thanks for acknowledging your generalisation and such, I just know from 
experience with the amount of passionate bartenders on these forums, and with 
the mention of how to make a perfect manhattan, the thread was going to veer 
of course about shaken and stirred, and be more on how that particular drink 
would be made. Merely an observation. Awesome thread though!  :P
