I did. Thank you. The man certainly has enemies.

You know, I don't want to seem like a Forrester apologist, but I'm not seeing "I want fewer cyclists" or "I want only recreational cyclists" or "I want only voluntary transportational cyclists." I'm still not seeing the Forrester as demon aspect.

There was a big exchange about the "Phobia" earlier in this thread. I read the Forrester Phobia page and it's 99.9% pseudo science crap. But there is a kernel of truth to it, in the sense that the fear of riding on moderately busy roads is out of proportion with the actual risk.

I'm just wondering if totally savaging this guy is productive.
