"ed the insignificant and edward the nonexistant"... states I am
"regurgitating" for the at least the 12th time or so... LOL
Besides, I have never said cycling (or other activities) do not
"impact"
hikers... Any activity coexisting with another will have some
reaction.
Vandy tries to paint it completely negative, which evidence shows it
is
not. I have said the impacts on the environment, wildlife and trails
is
comparable to hiking and Vandeman's statements concerning any ill
effects are not substantiated. That is the basis for any and all
comments to Vandeman. To counter the negative impact his comments
could
have on progress in sharing and preserving natural areas. Apparently,
you can not grasp that simple concept. What kind of "librarian" were
you...? In charge of the picture books?

Curtiss, it is now time for you to shut up concerning Vandeman. There
is
nothing you can say about his posts and him that you have not already
said a thousand times before. Give some others an opportunity to
respond
to his posts.

Anybody can respond to any post. My posts do not stop a single person
from
reading or responding to any other post.
Take a valium and relax. Your poor little heart must be about to burst.

Yes, I used to say that in response to others who would complain about my
posts to ARBR, but take a look at RBS. How do you account for the fact it
is
all about you and Vandeman. ARBR was never like RBS that way. Something
is
dreadfully wrong when a newsgorup is all about just one or two persons.
You
desperately need to stop responding to Vandeman. You are both one note
Johnnys and you have ruined RBS. I was never a one note Johnny.

Right ... You are cacophony of bu**** all up an down the scale.

You and I have both had our say and it is now up to others to decide
which side they want to come down on. You are like the man who came to
dinner and would not leave. Please get a freaking life of your own. To
be
a stalker is the most pitiful and pathetic creature you can be. Look
at
Jim McNamara for instance. And Chris Foster is becoming nothing but a
stalker too.

Oh please... All this attention for me. You are going to make me think
I
am Greater than I really am.

I am the only one on Usenet who will tell you what you are - a stalker
and a
leech! No one else has the intelligence to do this. I should really be
charging you something for my services.

Say Steve ... from one stalkeg to another ;^) ... Despit what DOlan
claims, this doens't take any degree of intelligcnce and Ed isn't the
only one on Usenet who will tell you what you are. You are an Ed Dolan
adversary and an Ed Dolan irritant and you are doing a great job. Keep
up the good work. By the way, there is no charge for my surfaces.
I'll undercut Dolan's price any day. - Jim McNamara

Actually I require some intellectuality and that is the one thing that is
sorely lacking from all my current adversaries. I really miss Tom Sherman.
He at least tried to display some intellect from time to time. Poor Jimbo
thinks verbiage is a substitute for thought. And so it goes - no one worthy
of me. It is apparently my destiny to go through life surrounded by idiots,
jerks and assholes.

ALL newsgroups without any exceptions whatsoever are by and for
idiots. Therefore, it does not matter what gets posted on any of
them
since only idiots like Curtiss are present. If you want
intelligence,
then go to a moderated forum where an editor will get rid of the
idiots and their idiotic messages.
Hello Dolan, the great idiot

Thus proving my point!
To who...?

I repeat, there is no one on these newsgroups (unmoderated) except
assholes and jerks! What else do you need to know?
Hello Dolan, the great asshole and jerk.

Thus proving my point!
You didn't have to work so hard to prove you are an idiot, asshole
and
jerk. We've known that for quite some time.

The only thing worse than being an idiot, an asshole and a jerk is
being
Curtiss. He is nothing but a pathetic stalker of Vandeman. Worse yet,
he
does nothing but regurgitate boilerplate nonsense about how mountain
biking does not impact hikers. He does both of these things because
he
is evil through and through. He would like to be a Great Saint like
Saint
Edward the Great, but that option is forever foreclosed to him because
he
is a man of the groin preoccupied with ****, **** and sex and not a
man
of the holy spirit like Saint Edward the Great.

The Great Ed Dolan does not ever stalk anyone. I have my own agenda and
cannot even imagine anyone else in the universe to be even remotely as
interesting as myself.

Not even Sherman or Vandeman???

Jim, unlike you, I do not confuse cyperspace with real life.

It is not be, but you you has blurred the distinction here. Cyberspace
has taken on a life of its own for you. Sadly, cyberspace is your life
and the readership are all very aware of that. - Jim McNamara

Sherman and
Vandeman are only what I read on my computer screen. Unless and until I meet
them in person, that is all they can ever be.The same goes for you too of
course.

I will admit I think I was stalking Tom Sherman at one time briefly, but I
grew disgusted with myself for doing that and I decided I would only take
him on when he got outrageously stupid. I always left him alone when he was
posting on topic and I would only take him on when he got political. The
last year or so Tom and I did not have much to say to one another because he
steered away from political topics almost entirely. He knew far more about
recumbents than I did and I respected him for that.

topic with silly accusations and your own attempts to draw attention away
from your cross-posting disaster.

You are merely extending the topic so you can continue to claim it is
someone else's fault. If you want to post on point concerning the opinions
of MV, have at it. Otherwise, this thread is dead. The same "argument" in
several spots. Beyond meaningless.

Any further responses will be in the thread titled "Impotence" as that best

ALL TOP POSTERS ARE IDIOTS!

A troll sets up camp in a newsgroup where he's got nothing to offer and
stirs up crap.
Then he responds to any answers to create interminably long threads filled
with
interminably long messages since he never snips.

I am actually the world's best editor and know how to snip better than
anyone, but Usenet is full of idiots who do not know how to do anything much
except mouth off. Since that is the case, I feel it is better to do no
editing than to do too much editing - which is the primary mistake of almost
all Usenet users.

For instance, you have made several mistakes in your present post, but I
will let them stand so as not to confuse anyone further than you already
have.

These strings of nonsense help boost his sense of power and consequently
his
shriveled sense of self esteem.
Typical of cubicle dwellers who've been shunted off to a deadend to await
retirement.

I retired at the ripe old age of 30, but I don't expect you would know
anything at all about how the other half lives.

The only order of perpetual sorrow is populated by those exposed to his
drivel.

Oh well, it's an open usenet.

Many thanks for the kind words JP. Ed Dolan the Great is always appreciative
of those who appreciate him like you do.

I have known several persons who could speak many foreign languages
fluently, but could never say anything sensible in any of them. In other
words, there is verbiage and then there is intellect. One requires a certain
facility, the other requires that you think. It may be that you are an idiot
savant, which is a person who has only one outstanding, almost freakish,
ability and is lacking in everything else. I always advise folks who can't
think to rely on the common sense they were born with.
