Are you trying to say that he is a narrow minded bigot, who wears blinkers, who doesn't have the ability to learn anything, while all the time spouting out rubbish against anybody or anything that he does not agree with, while still selectively quoting & misquoting from various sources that he thinks may back up his one sided view of the world, all the time telling everybody that he is the only person who knows what is happening, while at the same time asking for more laws even if he is an anarchist, who denies the holocaust, thinks Hitler invented motorways, thinks all car drivers are killers, and we should all live in vertical cities, never have public holidays because the Christians rule the world, should allow cyclists to drive on motorways, in supermarkets & along railway platforms, who will have answers for all your travel problems but will never tell you how (Vince's report), a person who is the most rammed cyclist in the history of the world, but can't produce proof. Are you trying to say that, if not why not? Thomas

Thanks, Doug. I'm still not convinced, though. Please could you post a lot more evidence to support your conjecture that a car can cause more damage than a bike. Cheers!

Doug <jagmad(a)riseup.net> gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying: > After laying flowers on her son's grave, Mrs Potts, who had owned the > vehicle for a month, was trying to leave when her foot slipped and > caught on the accelerator. > It wasn't a Toyota by any chance was it? <two second google> It wasn't. It was a Hyundai. "She scraped the mud from her feet before getting into her brand new grey Hyundai i10, which has an automatic gearbox." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1264561 Maybe the same issue afflicts them, eh, Duhg? Certainly sounds like the same cause as the Toyota issues. "But just as she turned to pull away her foot slipped sideways from the accelerator and lodged under the brake. As it slipped her heel clipped the accelerator, and as she tried to pull her foot free the car sped forwards and slammed into six graves belonging to members of the same family." |
