I disagree. I think both are generating some insight. I DON'T appreciate diverting threads to topics a few of you guys prefer. Are you bored with this topic? Then just stay away from it. I am bored shitless of the various 10-speed chain on 9 speed drivetrain and double to triple conversions (mostly because I have now only singlespeed bikes) but I don't go there talking about nanotechnology or japanese restaurants.

Maybe you think you can get away with such behaviour because.. I don't even know why, but it is a childish behaviour nonetheless. Not everybody has to like the same things you do. If you have this urge to talk about alcoholic beverages, start a thread about it, even in the mechanics forum, why not, and go crazy.
