Well, I'm blunt and not originally from NY, let alone from NYC. Dave is grossly exaggerating the tenor of my posts, but that's his right. Sorry George, but although it's hard to read tone in print yours was clearly sarcastic and not respectful - glass houses, you know. I don't begrudge anyone who's a newbie, but as a former crisis counselor I always expect someone wanting help to have some responsibility as well. If you don't know the terminology that's fine - until one ignores the resources given to you.

I may be back, may not be. As for bikeforums.net, for some reason it has about 1,000 times more traffic than here and a host of experts actively contributing. Yes, the tone is more candid there.
