Default Endless Arguments

Why do you suppose people like Frank or John post here other than to argue with anything and everything? Chalo obviously takes his que from Frank and we have Jay showing us a picture of a cap head screw and you have to wonder if he has even bothered to follow the discussion at all.

To Frank and Jay and Chalo the manufacturers of bicycle components are idiots and they could do a much better job with a screwdriver and a piece of modeling clay. Who the hell knows what John thinks since he changes every posting. I stopped reading his entries long ago if they have more than one sentence.

Joerg has grown tires of the BD so we see very little of him any more much to the loss of the group. Andre spends all of his time laughing at the stupids.

Ridesalot seems to be a switch-hitter though that could simply be a sign of confusion. The rest of those that post here actually want real discussions but are soon overwhelmed by the Frank, Jay and John show. More's the sad problem since it is destructive of the point for this group.

Right! And than we have Good Old Tom who apparently posts here to
demonstrate his vast ignorance. And who is now whining because various
inhabitants here have, from time to time, pointed out some of his more
outrageous claims as being pure imagination.

It might even be of interest to note that Good Old Tom has developed
an innovative technique. When someone points out that one of his wild
eyed claims is utter foolishness, he just changes the subject.

Tom very much reminds me of an old guy who signed up for casual work at a
vacation youth camp consellor. Absolutely no relevant background, but he
had undertaken all the compulsory basic training and so entered the
roster as C-in-training.

First he distinguished himself by going for a lie down every afternoon,
but would be fresh for the evening when he regaled us with his endless
stories of "delivering" various sailing yachts through out the globe.

As the guy in charge quietly said to me one night; "have you ever
wondered why wih all that claimed great sailing experience, all his trips
ended in disaster". Tom's stories are like that; saltory remnders of what
no to do.

Tom complains that the ******s have ruined a technical group by arguing with everything. Predictably, the first three replies are the ****** Slow Johnny arguing with Tom, and two, count 'em, two posts from the worthless ****** news18 (the thief Peter Howard) arguing with Tom.

It's a good example of why, when I want to discuss bicycle technicalities, I do it on another group where the members have better manners.

If that was in reference to a colonsocopy (where the sun doesn't
shine), I can see why there might have been a problem.

For all my irrelevance I've made a million a couple of times and am presently again worth a million. Tell us all what you're worth? Or maybe I should re-phrase that - what anyone would give for you?

Having a million between your retirement account and your house is pretty pitiful living in California. Just the rumpus room in SMS's Cupertino ranch house is worth $1M. In my ancestral home of Los Gatos, $1M will get you a dinner out with drinks but no desert. Maybe in Panama $1M means something -- but not in Cali. People spend that much on teeth whitening.

Nah, the subject of the experiment, members of the Magnequest Scum, didn't have the brains or the literary nous even for such an obvious joke. In their default mode they screeched that i lied, and offered a weather report for Bandon, Colorado, as proof. Bandon CO is about 5000 miles nearer to Jay than to me. One of them bragged about a masters in electronics from Stanford (Henry Pasternack, the one I labelled Pompass Plodnick for being a pompous asshole and a dull plodder with it), another of a masters in politics from the U of Pennsylvania (Michael LeFevre, the idiot who thought Gothenburg is in Austria), which probably explains their inability to read a map. Their apparent reason for throwing themselves against my ankles and thus licensing me to put them in my motivational psych lab and turn them into a profit centre for me (while complaining loudly for years about them persecuting me -- heh-heh!) was apparently that I didn't fold like the other audio gear designers the Magnequest Scum intimidated into using and recommending LeFever's pitifully inferior wound iron.
