Uh, only if you are not a member of the human species like I am. All humans need the same things to survive. It would be arrogant of me to tell you how to live your life but I have not done that, I have only questioned your assertion that you need a bicycle to survive. You could use another means to earn a living and I never suggested that you should (which would be arrogant), only that you could. You could pull that cart by hand if nothing else is available to you, which I doubt. I have never questioned that using a bicycle to pull the cart is better than pulling it by hand either. In fact I suggested to you that you might use an e-bike to pull the cart to even better effect but you did not exactly take that suggestion well. It is not arrogant to suggest a different bicycle to a BF member, it is one of the fundamental purposes of BF to do that.

I never said that you are incapable of understanding the logic of what I have written, only that it is obvious (and by your own admission too) that you are not understanding it. You and I do not "get" each other and apparently never will at the level required to hold this discussion. I make no value judgments at all when I say that, I am not putting you down when I say it. It is just an observation based on the fact that you have never responded to any of my arguments with something I can recognize as a thoughtful rebuttal and it is just as obvious to me that you are not recognizing my arguments as thoughtful rebuttals either. You once said to me something to the effect that we live in different worlds. At the time I thought that was just rhetoric but now I see that when it comes to the life of the mind we are in such different worlds that it is impossible for us to bridge the gap. Again, I am not saying one world is better or worse than the other, only that the gap between us is unbridgeable. I have tried to bridge it thoughtfully and respectfully several times now and I assume that you have done the same. So it is time to give up, this discussion is not and can not go anywhere. You don't understand me, I don't understand you. I apologize if I have caused you any grief (beyond simply disagreeing with you), it truly was not my intention to do so.
