Joe:

You haven't read the messages he has sent me "off list". I have come up with a fine solution to the Chuckie virus that has infected my computer as of late, and I highly recommend others do the same. I have blocked all incoming mail from Mr. I-have-all-the-answers himself. Before I had to sign off the list because of a real computer virus a while back, I got to a point where I was deleting all of his messages before I continued with reading the good ones from the rest of you wonderful folks. The man (for lack of a more appropriate word at the moment), rarely contributes any valuable information to the CR list, so I am quite sure that I will not be missing anything. Except the crap he loves to dish out, but doesn't know how to take when it comes back at him. And how could I possibly miss that?

The rest of you have been absolutely wonderful, and I wish I could sit and talk classic bicycles with all of you forever, and share my collection of classic bicycles with everyone too.

Cheers everyone!
