I think most of you have read that awful stuff posted by Arnold. If he was sent these messages, it is inexcusable. I will not tolerate attacks on list members from any direction, even "off list" e-mails.
The Classic Rendezvous group has become a kinda-sorta family (albeit dysfunctional at times) and nastiness of this sort (of any sort) is simply not welcome. No matter how irritated we may become, it is simply not OK to lash out uncivilly at one another. In fact, it is only bikes for crying out loud! I dearly love these machines and bits but NEVER is is worth all this venomous venting of spleen!
The irony is that I had thought your responses to Arnold's earlier complaint were very nicely and convincingly answered by other list members.
And then "Robert Miller" jumps in... Oh joy.
I also asked (and I also ask of you all) Arnold NOT to copy that sort of thing to the whole list... There is no point in doing that and we do have young people and ladies on board (as an ex-sailor, I have heard it all but I don't like it either!) Send any and all complaints to me.. As list manager, I will deal with it and not burden the enjoyment of the others on the list....
