How come this person doesn't sign their posts?
And your post appears to be redundant as I perceive it. I don't believe 
chaos would dominate and eventually destroy ridecamp, because the bottom 
line is we are on ridecamp because we love to ride and want to share 
that with others. A little lightheartedness won't give birth to chaos. 
Humor and a touch of humanity is something I welcome in my hectic life.
Besides isn't it all small stuff. And let's save the sweat for the 
biggies. 
If someone posts something that gets your goat...remember the taste of 
honey is highly recommended. Although vinegar is good for flying 
beasties, you got beasties?:)
So let's saddle up together and hit the cyber trails, it's really a fun 
place to go....especially with the wind howling out my door.
Happy Trails,
