Veiled name calling? I did not see what I wrote as "veiled name calling". Please read and understand the difference between stating you are foolhardy and stating your behaviour seems foolhardy to me. One is making a statement about a person, the other is expressing my opinion of a person's behaviour. In not taking advantage of the extra protection offered by a case, 'disregard for danger or consequences' seemed about right for my opinion.

After the number of posts over the years about ereader displays being damaged—I remember a multitude of posts where "see the curved lines on the screen, they indicate a broken substrate" was written—it's hard for me to grok how people can defend not using a case. Much like wearing a seat belt while using a motor vehicle improves your chances of surviving an accident, using a case improves your ereader's chance of survival.
