The vast majority of people here don't care how you heal normal mode fights in Ulduar. I could train my 12 year old nephew how to heal normal fights in Ulduar.

Theres absolutely no need to be such a jerk about it, regardless of the name of this site. I could come along and say the same thing about YOUR raid experience - but it wouldn't make your argument any less valid. He said "in his experience" and thats exactly what he meant. He might not be able to contribute to discussions about the best glyphs for hard modes, but he can certainly contribute to discussion about the best glyphs in general. Personally I don't see that theres much distinction - with the exception of General Vezax, most hard modes aren't all that different from normal modes - theres just more of everything (in the damage taken sense).

Back on topic: I agree that Glyph of Rejuvenation is much more valuable than Glyph of Nourish. In Ulduar a number of fights, especially hard modes, have raid damage spikes that can and do push people below 50% hp on a regular basis. I've seen it do 6% of my healing on some Freya+3 attempts. Sure, its quite possible that a lot of the damage was due to poor play/was avoidable, but if you keep a good player alive even though they make a mistake, they'll learn from it. Glyph of Nourish is still a great tank healing glyph, but if you're playing to your strength as a druid (raid healing), then you wont be casting Nourish anywhere near enough.
