Me too. I also have enjoyed just about every one of my interactions with the increasingly rare road-ragin' cager.
I had an amusing interaction a few months ago, however. I chased down a young man in a subaru sedan who had just sped through a red light with pedestrians in the crosswalk. Immediately after lowering his window this individual exclaimed heatedly that he saw me run 3 lights in a row and was trying to teach me a lesson (by endangering other people). I explained to me him that when I stopped and proceeded through those lights I was not endangering pedestrians or impairing anyone's right of way. I think I actually got through to him because he seemed to calm down quite a bit and waved at me when I road off.
