Agreed. Here's a story:
Myself and a few people wanted live animals for a manger scene on our
church lawn for Christmas. Many thought it was a bad idea, but we went
ahead anyway. It was a huge success, but then people complained we
didn't have enough people on the lawn to greet the hundreds of visitors.
Moral of the story: if you take risks, expect folks to complain. And,
even if you succeed, others will complain you didn't anticipate the
success.
