RE: Steph has Spoken

[Mike Sofen <msofen@pacbell.net>]

PLEASE!  There are 100,000 chat rooms and email lists to discuss
non-endurance stuff.  Many of the really interesting people have dropped off
of ridecamp because of the amount of off-topic conversations.  This is an
extraordinary forum for those of us who really want to talk endurance.  And
talent?  Angie has dropped off of ridecamp because of this, for Pete's sake.

You can say just hit the delete button, and I'll say I shouldn't have to hit
it 180 times a day.  I totally agree with Steph.  Let's get back to - and
stay with - endurance.

Isn't that like herding cats, Steph; trying to control this wild angry mob
you got here on RC?  And if you herd cats, don't you do that on a horse?
And
if you ride a horse to herd cats for 50 miles in a day, isn't that endurance
related?

Some of the best posts on RC have gotten sort of off the subject from which
they were originally intended.  Some examples are:  Carla dancing naked to
provide rain to drought scorched Texans, a very cool squirrel storing and
eating beat pulp in Susan's living room couch,  TWINKIES (still my
favorite),
sports bras, is TI really a GOD?, etc.

So much talent here, do we really want to miss out on any of it?  I sure
don't.


cya,
Howard
