So let me see if I can keep track of this:

We have Silca/Zefal, Sturmey Archer/Derailleurs, cheap sewups/clinchers, Simplex/Campagnolo, Suntour/everyone else, toe clips/clipless, Tuscon/Pasadena, socketed dropouts/slotted dropouts, pressed/cast, No Cal/So Cal, East Coast/Left Coast, indexed=evil/indexed=ok and warm weather/cold weather riders. Did I miss any? And which camps are you in? Except for Chuck, of course, who is in all camps except maybe the cold weather. Goodness, we love to disagree, don't we?
