I'm just seeing replies to him, I guess I killfiled him eons ago.
Probably because all he does is post and runs. i.e. Post a link or
some press release and leave, not trying to actually start a thread
or worthwhile conversation.
A lot of the recumbent advocates remind me of some of the frothier
Linux advocates. I used to be more interested in 'bents until a
couple of them started frothing at the mouth in a discussion of
'bents versus uprights a while ago. Very unappealing and off
putting.
A nice contrast is Guy who twits people occasionally about riding
diamond frame bikes, but he comes off as amusing, not raving.
