I find it counterproductive that some members here seem to participate
in
the very "attitude poisoning" you're talking about in regards to the
hikers
and wilderness preservationists. To me, spewing such nastiness makes
me
leery of joining any advocacy efforts if those are the attitudes of
the primary representatives.

Yes, Harvey accomplished a lot in regards to preservation and trails
and I'll give him some credit for that. But, think how much more he
could have accomplished if instead of alienating other user groups
with his selfish and hateful agenda he had sought to work together.

We (BBTC) spent the 80's trying to stem the loss of trail access; we
spent the 90's trying to stay even and rebuild our image; we've spent
most of this decade struggling to build new trail.

What if Harvey had acknowledged that this new user group was just as
passionate as he to preserve nature and given us a hand up rather than
demonizing us with his endless vitriolic diatribes?

How much more could user groups have worked together without his
attitude poisoning the spirit of cooperation? How many more encounters
on the trails would have been pleasant interactions instead of a
scowl? And how many more trails would be enabling the next generation
of mountain bikers to develop a love for our mountains and trees and a
passion to preserve that experience.

Yes Harvey accomplished a lot, but when a full accounting is made he
comes up way short.

I've already proven you to be a LIAR, which means that your statement below
is a LIE.

I see you also publish photographs illegally, like those watermarked ones on
your website. Not only do you spread lies and totally inaccurate
information, you break the law in order to do so.

You're a legend in your own mind.

He's not full of anger Andy, he's playing you for a reaction like a kid poking a bug.
He doesn't give a [censored] for the environment or wildlife or he would be directing his

Instead he gets his jollys from annoying and namecalling.
As you've seen a reasoned response, logical, annotated, factual is a waste of time.

That's the only way to defeat a troll. Like Tinkerbelle, when no one believes in him anymore

If you must repond to him, please delete his stupid diatribe. It's criminal to consider
how many servers are necessary for Google to preserve his nonsense because people
duplicate his entire post to respond.

He wouldn't loose anything he would miss, his personality has already taken
care of that.

The only thing you keep saying is "it's called fair use". Please provide

years fighting auto dependence and road construction.)

The only thing you keep saying is "it's called fair use". Please provide
the statute that clearly states that what you are doing is legal. You
know - a link to the law you are hiding behind, or even copy/paste the
text.

Have you ever heard of Google? DUH!

Have you ever heard of actually answering a question? Or do you have
something to hide?
