I don't think Maynard is a 'tool,' I think he is just very, very firm in his beliefs and in the ways he expresses them. I think he would be a very intimidating person to meet, I would be terrified of him...

And yeah, totally agreed that Tool have a tribal aspect of them, which is apparent in almost all of their work.
Thanks for adding that comment about Maynard... it shows alot more insight than mine did. To be honest I think my response in my post is how I respond to intimidating people in general, probably not an accurate reflection of who maynard actually is...
