Shino,

If you check out the website Oracle lists in his profile, you will no longer need the question marks. Because it will no longer be a question it will be a fact.

there, there, dear kevin......

please do me the honor of not confusing the words that you read on that website with my own words, or for that matter reflective of any of my own ideas or opinions. rather than choosing a narrow interperetive framework, perhaps consider that it is something that i simply found amusing or interesting, or worthy of some thought.

let us speak of light wheels or some other joy-bringing topic, rather than dwell on the oft-contentious world of politics. for example, does anyone here know any details of the new mag300 wheelset made by the well-greaved warriors at american classic? hephestos has apparantly caused them much strife and woe during the r&d process, for high is their price, ca. 1000.00 usd for a pair of clinchers.

You bring tears to my eyes with your "humor"!
