Tom Sherman has managed to trivialize himself on these groups. He used to
be
capable of long thoughts, but now all he is good for are short grunts. He
has become badly constipated with increasing age. I predict he will not
enter old age at all well.

He just spent many thousands of dollars on a new velomobile and has yet to
ride it. Alas, he has become muddled and distracted, ever the lot of those
who defend the indefensible.

I get the feeling that Tom Sherman needs someone to attack, in order
to feel that his life (such as it is) has meaning. Of course, that
only ensures that it will have even LESS meaning. He's a sad case
indeed, especially after he threw his lot in with those ne'er-do-well
mountain bikers....

What is peculiar about him is that I do not think he is much into any
mountain biking. However, he has always had an animus against you from your
posting on AMB going back many years. He used to warn the rest of us not to
even mention your full name for fear that you would show up and destroy our
newsgroups. That is ancient history now and all the old timers have long
since left these groups except for Mr. Sherman and myself. He is actually
posting more for my benefit than yours. I think he likes to have his ass
kicked by yours truly. We are in a contest to see which is stronger, his
dumb ass or my sore foot.

No Ed, I was warning others that Mr. Vandeman apparently did not believe
in what happens on Usenet stays on Usenet. *It was reported on the
former "Mike Vandeman FAQ" that in the past Mr. Vandeman contacted the
employers of those who he disagreed with, trying to get them disciplined
and/or fired from their work.

Only because they deserved it. They were stealing from their employers.
