Hmmm.....this is a perfect example of something I have been thinking about regarding the forums lately. The other day I got all huffy in a thread in the road biking forum and unleashed on a few of the members over there.

Then when I looked at who I was flaming, it was some of the same guys who have been helping me out and giving me advice over the years as well as at that very time in another forum. In fact, over the past couple of years, both you and Rain have offered helpful advice to me, I believe. Even though I have argued with Rain in the past as well.

As for me personally, I really appreciate the help and expertise of some of these guys and am resolved to try to be more tolerant of opinions that differ from my own on these forums. The value here is based on a bunch of cyclists helping each other. It is not worth the bad blood for me to get all huffy about small differences of opinion.
