How was jail?




The jail he was in is pretty infamous. He is probably not going to




commit any more crimes that land him back there that's for sure.

I didn't commit any crimes, which is why all charges were dismissed on 3/26/13. Thanks for demonstrating just how DISHONEST mountain bikers are.- Hide quoted text -

So how was jail?






For the record, Vandeman is lying (again) about all charges being

dismissed.


I guess you didn't bother to check, did you? LOL. LIAR.

In fact he was guilty of three out of six of the misdemeanor

charges. He got off lightly: the eight days he spent in jail plus 30

days on the Alameda County sheriff's Work Alternative Program. He's also

on probation for three years and not permitted on certain area trails.

Of course U.C. could choose to ban him from their property even after

the probation is over.



Despite all the rhetoric you see from him on Usenet, the chance of him

re-offending is probably very small. He got off lightly because he had

no previous criminal record. If he re-offends he won't be so lucky.



The key thing that the judge should have ordered is to have him attend

classes to learn about wilderness preservation, trail use impacts, etc.

He has no knowledge of any of these subjects.

Hogwash! This guy is a mountain biker and a trail-builder, not a
scientist! "Unfortunately the document does not really site [sic] any
specific research or studies in forming this conclusion". For the REAL
science, see
http://mjvande.nfshost.com/scb7.htm.


Hogwash. This was written by an attention-starved layman with no relevant
peer-reviewed journal publications who cherry-picks, misquotes and alters
context to make his points.

For REAL science go... Basically anywhere else.


Well played !

There are probably other papers out there that are as poorly researched




as what Vandeman has posted on his site.




How would YOU know? You can't even use your real name, much less any credentials.



No matter what the subject is, look at the qualifications of the writer




as there may be other fake "experts" like Vandeman out there (not all of




whom are convicted criminals though).








Also look at their agenda since they will say or write anything to




support their agenda. I.e., Kentucky State Senator Mike Wilson, fighting




to get science out of public schools, found a whopping 16 "scientists"




that dispute climate change. Only 3 of the 16 have minimal




qualifications to discuss climate change though zero are experts and




none have ever published a paper on the subject. Naturally he also wants




to stop the teaching of evolution.

And what are your credentials? You have a Phd but so what? You have no major publications in any credible environmental management or natural science journal.

Real science? You are not in a position to comment sonny. You are not a wildlife biologist and have made no real significant academic contribution to the environmental management literature.

Whatever Mikey. By the way I like your use of capitals. Did you learn how to use them when you were doing your PHd? I am very impressed.
