Greg,

I'll probably regret this, but I don't think it's fair to call the gentleman a troll because he signed off with only his first name. The CR list is the *only* mailing list in which I've ever participated that requires a full name sign-off with place of residence. Most mailing lists don't even require the use of your real name. Forgetting the complete sign-off is an easy mistake - even after you've read the rules. It happens all the time here and affects even long-standing members.

I agree with Bob. Lighten up, folks.

Phil, who knows he's supposed to sign off "Phil Sieg Knoxville, Tennessee" but really gets kinda sick of doing it /ad nauseum/.

>Rule #1 is don't feed the trolls. Anyone that calls himself some generic name and doesn't sign off is a troll by definition. Rule #2 is this list doesn't exist to value folks' bikes for them - eBay and other venues are just fine for that. Ted's point is well-taken, complies with the rules of the list, and I agree with him 100%. And I am unanimous in that.... ;-)
