[*BCM*] Massachusetts Bicycle

[Lee Peters]

Even though I may have started this, I politely disagree with Ian.  The debate is amusing, but shouldn't necessarily go away.  I guess I was looking for a little identity among the two sides.  Turtle's general advocacy for niceness, may be very good to temper the tempers of CM.  Turtle doesn't really ride CM (or does she??), but I like the voice of cooperation.

These lists are really like the radio, you get to change the station, but not change the content.

(my secret agenda is to make people laugh, or laugh when Godwin's Law is evoked)

  I'm saying they should have their own list (which they might have) and not clog up this list with their stuff.  So, y'know, people don't assume that CM and MassBike are one and the same.  And people who are interested in MassBike can join their list.  Pretty simple.

    So you think MassBike should be elitist and not talk to us?  Or are you 
    thinking that we should be elistist and not listen to them?  And do you
    realize that some of us are some of them as well?
