It is rather humorous that Frank has the firm belief that everything he says is so intensely interesting that no one would EVER put him in a kill file. He thinks that just ANYONE would put their names out there to be vilified by the Stupid 5 when all they have to do is email me with what is going on and I will say it for them. Not everyone has the self awareness of Andre. Will Krygowski continue to claim he taught Mechanical Engineering when even the school won't back him up? Isn't it ludicrous that Frank has nothing to say about Ridesalot saying he has people on a kill file but that I certainly couldn't?
Among the stupid things that come up are the total idiot Slocomb talking about me carrying a toolbox for someone else. Apparently the man who says that he retired from the air force two grades below the top level, doesn't know that graduation from Systems schools was an automatic increase in rank from E2 to E3 or Airman 2nd Class. Not Airman 3rd Class or that most of the people in the shop were leftovers from B52-A's and so did not know the radar or terrain avoidance. That meant that my partner needed to teach me the paperwork etc. and not working on the systems. He carried my tool bag so to speak (not tool box - exactly how would a Crew Chief not know that? Hey, Slocomb. thank you for your service but you needn't lie about it because I was there and experienced it myself. Your attempt at self aggrandizement by quoting Google is rather pathetic. Also it is now public information that the large increase in Alzheimer's and other dementias leading to early death is specifically because of the mRNA vaccines for your foolishness is clearly a sign of your impending doom.

Google Groups to read and post Usenet news. Google Groups does not
have a kill file feature. Therefore, you don't have a kill file.
To be fair, you were once a programmer and should be qualified to
write your own kill file system for Google Groups. However, I've seen
no evidence from you as to ever having written such a program.
You've also claimed that you don't read my postings, yet you once
mentioned numerical information from one of my posting in a follow up
(e.g. slopes of San Francisco roads) which could only have come from
reading the numbers in my posting. Posting your replies to different
threads is irritating, but not very effective. Therefore, I believe
that you read everything and just play ignorant.
Looking at the dates and times of your replies using Forte Agent news
reader, I find that you are usually the first person to reply to
almost every new topic posted. Looking at the last week or so, your
replies appear within minutes of the start of most (not all) new
threads. Do you monitor rec.bicycles.tech constantly during the day
so that you can be the first to comment? Do you really need to be the
first to comment? If you monitor RBT on your house computer, what do
you do for a computer when working on your amazing collection of
exotic bicycles in the garage? Do you have 11 computers, one for each
bicycle?
Drivel: A recent storm knocked down a large number of trees and power
lines in my area. Power, wired internet and road access were out for
4.5 days. I survived on intermittent generator power and quite
reliable cellular data on a non-tethered smartphone. The next storm
is due tomorrow evening, which would easily be a repeat performance.

:-) Tom could be "playing ignorant," somewhat in the way an actor
"plays" a person on stage.
I've heard of actors who, for a certain role, will stay in character
even between performances. That may explain some of Tom's psychology.
He's "playing ignorant" endlessly. ;-)

big job cleaning branches out of the yard, plus chainsawing the pine
that fell from the back neighbor's woods into my yard. But I didn't
realize how serious the problem was. On yesterday's ride, days after the
event, roads were blockaded for power line repair. Traffic lights were
out. I stopped at the grocery just before the ride's end and was told I
could buy only non-perishable goods and had to pay cash. Teams of
workers were trying to salvage cold foods. The power company sent an
email saying they hoped to have most power restored by Wednesday, two
days hence. It's starting to feel like California! (Except colder.)
BTW, to move further off topic: My ride took me by the township police
building. They had a big new banner proclaiming that we're the 6th
safest community in Ohio.
That's evidence of yet more government incompetence! This site lists us
as the _fifth_ safest:
https://www.travelsafe-abroad.com/safest-cities-in-ohio/
And this one says merely the twelfth safest:
https://www.safewise.com/blog/safest-cities-ohio/
There are homes for sale. Tom should move here. I'm sure he could still
think of lots to complain about!

Tommy was never a programmer. The closest he came to programming may have been loading a program into a controller. All his claims of being a high level programmer are complete bullshit. I'm not sure if you were active here a few years ago when he posted a discussion asking how it could be possible that his bike computer could show an average speed increase with a current speed decrease. It became obvious then - first he claimed that the calculating speed was a complicated algorithm, then when I posted 20 lines of java script written by a high school kid for a home made bike computer using an Arduino kit he said it was indecipherable since the header info wasn't there. Also he has some weird notion that VHDL is something only used by college kids for documenting code.

to national parks, to Maine and and overseas and more. When she was about 15, perhaps the
age that kids least like to be around their parents, we did a week long tour around Ohio.
(By car, not by bike, but taking bikes along for local rides as usual.)
At the end, we all agreed that it was one of our more interesting vacations. Even the teenager!

Depends where you ride, and depends what you compare it with! We live right where
the glaciers stopped, so riding south or east is hilly, riding north or west is much
flatter. Still, even north and west has some deep river valleys that are hard to traverse.
One friend and I once rode the roads closest to our local river, following it down to the
Ohio River, then returning by a different route. That was a century ride. The southern part
of the route was very hilly by our standards. Maybe not like Wales, but very steep and choppy.
Years later, I decided to ride the same river from its source back home. This time, I resolved
to cross the river at every opportunity. It didn't occur to me that such a ride would involve
an uphill after every river crossing. That was another century ride, and I arrived home much,
much more fatigued.

I think the Amish areas north of me have lots of gravel roads that might be fun to explore.

peak is 1,549ft so about the same as the welsh valley towns or the heads of
said valleys.
But it’s the how, ie the Welsh valleys (old industrial towns) the valleys
are very steep sided so any roads that cross them tend to that as well.
Though not all some of the later industrial roads are alpine like curving
so heavier industrial stuff can pass, the area is cris crossed with old
tram and later railways.
The Welsh mountains the roads and passes are older and different styles a
iconic one is unpaved MTB/walking climb called the gap up the valley to Pen
Y Fan though passes though a high saddle.
