I have no response to that.

What makes you think this isn't my real name?

We DO have a forum for those of us who LIKE to argue, within reason. It's called the "Politics and Religion" forum. It does have it's own code of ethics to abide by, and most do, except during elections.
I agree to reply to the meatheads of the net with silence. Revenge is sometimes a dish not served at all!

Self-Acclaimed Experts Who Are Never Wrong
They could all gather in one place and beat-up on each other all day long... while the rest of us just try to learn and grow together the best way we know how.
It might work! How 'bout it, Mods?

As an aside- I checked out the Marathon Bike link under your signature. I saw that there were to be 3 rides, but nowhere did I see how far the rides were.
