However the "beginners" of the hobby are greatly underrespresented around here. think about it. there are a LOT of people who have set up their tanks to be as easy to maintain as possible... and they'll tell their lfs so. so they end up with softie and possibly lps dominated tanks... i cant imagine an lfs recommending an sps tank for a beginner can you?
sorry, i just got out of my statistics course... lurking variables, correlation and causation oh my!

Interestingly enough, I have had a lot of newcomers asking me for sps frags but I do understand the other side of the equation you are getting at. Although there's still a lot of people who are experienced that just aren't into sps because they think they're boring. (myself I don't get that, but to each is own) I also like softies and LPS so I have them too.
