Say what? Man, if someone wants to use stain, more power to them.
Who are you, or I to say what looks best? To you a clear finish
looks good. To Norm, and many many others, stain is a look they
like. Why not just let them do as they like?

I agree. I tend to not like natural finish wood. I usually like a
darker and more robust finish. Then again I kinda like chubby chicks,
so who the hell is going to listen to me anyway??
