post something to that effect just so that we all know where we are coming from. Presumably Lou Deeter and Jerry Moos will back me in that view." --------- Trouble is, with all rules, there are almost always numerous ways that they can be bent, broken, or fudged. To make rules clear and concise, and iron-clad, often makes for a very rigid "society" (CR list included in this application of the word), and who really want to live rigidly?

I personally like that there are Ebay outings, listers pointing me/us to sites where bikes might be for sale(with non-fixed prices), I even don't mind at all CR listers outing their own auctions. More bike-related viewing for me, I welcome it.

As is often the case here, if we don't like something, we are often told to use the "delete" key liberally......so, I ask, why isn't the CR policy more liberal, and ask people to use that key more often? Dale, I have often seen it advovcated that others use the delete key. Why not allow more, and suggest that action?
