I see some of Tom's relatives regularly and none have mentioned his
demise. Maybe he's just taking a deserved rest from R.B.T.

I hope he has having fun with his green banana or Honda.

It is not
healthy getting upset...

+1

... over so many OT political ****.

But somebody's got to do it if anything is to ever get better.

Not the way I see it.


What, not get upset?

People running around being upset never helps matters;
it's the next thing to panic. To make things better a
person needs to set aside being upset. Now that person
is better, and can help. An upset person is a burden on
those around him.

Indeed I do; but find myself separated from divinity, and keep running
out of soma.

I believe Tom Sherman has left these cycling newsgroups for good. It would
not be right for any of us not to take notice of this. So I will do the
honors since I knew him better than any of the rest of you.

Tom Sherman was here almost from the beginning. He was a prolific poster. In
the early days he was a poster of substance and obviously knew more about
bicycles than all the rest of you put together. He certainly knew more than
me and that is saying quite a bit.

As the years went by these newsgroups changed their character. Tom Sherman
became a gadfly and finally a jokester. He was essentially rendered
irrelevant as these groups became polluted more and more by idiots. Anyone
of any intelligence had long since left and he found himself alone with only
Ed Dolan the Great an adequate foil for him.

Finally all the posts were off topic which worked against any reason for
being here in the first instance. Now that he is gone we can clearly see how
these newsgroups have become the nullity they were always destined to
become. I am preparing to leave these groups myself once I have gotten rid
of Jim McNamara, a notorious stalker who is not worthy of me. But this is
about Tom Sherman, not Ed Dolan the Great.

His chief fault was that he was a liberal, an ideology that he often vented
on these newsgroups and which brought out the beast that lurks in the heart
and soul of Ed Dolan the Great. I don't think he ever enjoyed kicking ass as
much as I did, but he was at least a good sport about it. That is quite rare
in this day and age. These newsgroups are infinitely poorer now that he is
no longer here to keep things riled.


I am a universalist, not a liberal.

Perhaps he went to see Jobst.

It's cornering grip that matters.

Is that front tyre meant to be on the wrong way around?
