<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>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.<BR><BR>
