i know this a bad reason to call, but at nl25 i always considered everyone a donkey until proven otherwise. At higher limits this is a fold.

I try to remind myself that even donkeys get hands.
Certainly I agree with your main premise, but even a donkey must have a specific reason for a huge raise. Of course one such reason might be that this is a specific kind of donkey, a maniacal compulsive bluffer, but in my experience they usually show their colors pretty clearly at small stakes.
Bad players call with marginal hands and play passively when they shouldn't. Few bad players just toss in maniacal raises with bad hands -- those who do are fairly easy to spot, at least in my limited experience.
