    Thanks for proving my case.
    Have a nice day.

    ...ah lets see...that "case proven" would be, accuse a stranger (me) of
    envisioning bikers as roadkill and then when stranger (me) is insulted,
    offended and [censored] and calls your punk ass a punk ass, stranger (me)
    has anger/revenge issues...interesting.

    Going back to my original reply to _Wayne_, I was emotionally shaken by
    the event which happened to me. I've _seen_ what happens to the human
    body when crushed by heavy equipment accidents, they're FUBAR, _that's_
    the term, coined long before "political correctness" and other such
    bunk.

    There are no "safe options" to implement as you suggested. When driving
    truck there's no time to run down a contingency plan or multiple choice
    list of alternatives when [censored] happens. It's "up on the wheel", 101%
    undivided attention to the task at hand. Your training prepares you to
    be _pro-active_, re-active is to late and kills people. You're taught
    that the most dangerous mile you'll ever drive is the next one.

    But I gotta say Sarge, you have taught me one thing. Never
    under-estimate the ball-less factor on Usenet. By now a man would have
    admitted he was wrong.

    Now _you_ run along and have a nice day.

    just regards -Mike Baldwin

    PS - don't forget to cut & paste my words out of context - LOL!

    How about we meet? You can bring your big truck and I'll bring my
    bike.

    How about the YMCA parking lot, 9505 Ludington Drive, Lake, Michigan?
    That's about 34 miles NW of Mt Pleasant.

    We'll see who's ball-less.

    I admit Sarge, your wanting to apologize to me face to face is quite
    honorable but I'll accept your on-line apology with equal admiration.
    You do have an apology in mind right? LOL!

    just regards - Mike Baldwin

    PS - ... your tone seems a bit hostile Sarge, do you have an
    anger/revenge issue?

    So racing for pink slips is out of the question?

    No racing for pink slips but how about a couple of Founders Brewing
    Dirty [censored]?
