Your comments are ironic. The next time the OP locks his bike the thief will be armed with this same knowledge and likely have an easier time defeating the OP's next lock. If only "good" people could read and/or view on line information I might agree with your position.

When I was young and more idealistic I felt more like you do. But age and learning the hard way how some people will take whatever they can to gain worth/wealth has damped my rosy view of the world. To think that "bad" people won't learn how to get away with their sad actions by this information is unrealistic. There are times when one should keep their thoughts to themselves.

I'm not going to continue this now that I've expressed my thoughts. Andy.
