We should not lambast anyone for posting reviews for books they have yet to open the cover on, we should simply ignore those whose reviews are meaningless. Some do find these "false" reviews helpful, which means that all your hating is misplaced.

Professional reviewers have been around since we started transmitting information.
OK, if I decide to accept your statements (which I don't...) exactly how would I know which reviews are "meaningless?" How do I know which reviewers open the cover and which don't?
