Great advice from the page: "I'm obviously not much of a grammarian," he replied quickly, "because I see no reason to limit their use. I mean, sure, if you overuse any particular style or motif it can become habitual and lazy. But I think the chief objection to their use seems to be their potential for pleonasm, when writers use redundant adverbs before a word that doesn't need qualifying."

It's all about how one uses words; this notion that adverbs are inferior somehow is absurd.

Although it should be noted that they do tend to suck.

Completely and utterly disagree. I love adverbs, and just like any other grammatical units, it all depends on how well the writer handles them.
