I'd never heard of this woman or her review until about twenty minutes
ago. Finding it online was trivial. Jesus, *this* is what people are
talking about? This reads exactly the same as dozens of restaurant
reviews I've seen in the small local paper here. It's strictly by the
numbers. From all the buzz, I'd thought the reviewer had gone off on
Olive Garden in some cranky way not inconsistent with the reviewer
being 85 years old.

your own opinion about this. Here's the original column:
