Dale- I don't get it. It seems like this Chuck Schmidt has some kind of beef with Ken Denny. Are we abandoning civility for this "special" case? I for one don't believe these kind of flame exchanges reflect well for the CR List. Plenty Cold Enough Already in Cut Bank MT. Dave Anderson

A Masi from Verona has to have three holes? Mario Confente never built a Masi without three holes? A Masi built in Verona is not stamped with a "V"? A bike from Vigorelli (in Milan) is not stamped "M" for Milan, but "V" for Vigorelli? I would accept as fact that the letter stamped on a Masi indicates the city it was built in.

Let's see. Which would I believe? The letter stamped into the steel of a bottom bracket with a steel die, or an invoice? I pick what's stamped on the bike frame and not what is typed on the invoice! Free Ken??? The guy is running loose on the streets of Boston as we speak!!!

Ken is currently subscribing to the list with another hotmail account alias (after being kicked off the CR list three times), and he asks another member of the list to share his comments with "your CR group?" Strikes me as odd I guess...
