Now I can read this group in five minutes and most of what I read is
about recumbent bikes. To all of you "on topic" people, thank you for
all the good info. To all of you "off topic" people, see ya!


Kill files are for people who lack the intelligence to sort what is
worthwhile to them, and the self-control to ignore what they consider
useless.


Mr. Sherman has got it exactly right. For once we can agree on something.

Kill files are for people who *have* the intelligence to sort what is
worthwhile, and have automated the process. Just as some program their
televisions to skip over the channels that do not contain programming,
they will program their newsreaders to skip over those posters who offer
little of interest to them.


I made short work of this asshole Larry Varney who looks like Santa Claus
but who lusts after young girls. He is an evil Santa Claus and parents
should take measures to protect their sweet innocent daughters from his
lustful desires.

I've gotten kind of bored watching the two closet homosexuals control
this board. If they would just come out maybe we could have some
peace here!

Enjoy,

Just because you're out, you don't have to be mean to those who aren't.

I'm curious why folks stay with this newsgroup given that any thread
is immediately subject to contamination. (I'm being kind) Yup, I'm a
"usta be" and just stopped in to see if things had changed in a few
months.

I can't believe that anyone on this group ever kill files Mr. Tom Sherman,
the everlasting liberal-socialist-communist. However, if some of you are
kill filing him, then I consider that I have accomplished some good in this
world.


Doug "+4 SD IQ" Huffman claims to have me killfiled. Pay attention.

Even Mr. Ed Dolan has something worthwhile to say on recumbent bicycles
0.1% of the time.


I am strictly into quality posts, not quantity posts like so many others
here.

Joe....

Just think of it as a "Reality-Show" that is far more entertaining than
most of those on TV.


My attitude too Jack. I turn on the TV at night and I am bored within 2
minutes. So I turn on my computer and go to ARBR and there are a plethora of
jackasses waiting to hear from me. I have died and gone to hog heaven. What
more could anyone ask for? By the time I have put all the jackasses in their
proper places, it is time for me to go to bed and I feel really good at what
I have accomplished in the course of my otherwise dull day. Many thanks to
one and all for keeping me amused.

It used to be my favorite and I'm waiting ... and patient. I have
outwaited and outwitted most disruptors.


All top posters are idiots!

Nonsense Doug. It is only me that is keeping this newsgroup the least bit
interesting. Or is there something you wanted to know about presta vs.
shraeder valves? Or maybe something about fat tires vs. skinny tires?

Be thankful I am here to keep dunderheads like you entertained. And for free
too!

1. Reading and writing via a proper newsreader is for me far more
comfortable than via any browser

2. I prefer to be my own moderator who decides what I'm able to write
and to read. It's not only freedom of speech, it's also freedom of
choice.

3. It's simply one alternative to all the other boards and groups I'm
reading and I'm not intending to give it up completely.

4. If you don't expose yourself to the downs of a group, you can't enjoy
the ups entirely. ;-)

Kurt, who likes diversitiy not only in bicycles


What Kurt says is fine by me. Why some are so upset by off topic is beyond
me. I will admit that it can get a bit raucous at times, but so what. If I
don't mind being called a jackass and an idiot, then why should anyone else.
After all, I am a very high minded individual and far superior to 99.99% of
all mankind.

The correct spelling is "Schrader", as in Schrader-Bridgeport.
