Have you considered that, if Solvang Cyclist (and you) "don't see what
this has to do with cycling", you and he (she?) might be just a bit
myopic?


I normality don't reply to such posts since they almost never return to a
civil conversation, but I will try. Note that my main point has been
ignored here. That is, to copy a newspaper article verbatim without
adding ANY original content is a clear violation of copyright and is in
no way protected by fair use. Had the original poster simply quoted the
relevant parts of the article to use as a basis for original thought, it
would have been fine.

'Course, even when I *was* a
cyclist, I thought most cyclists were assholes. You conform to my
stereotype.


Reading through this thread for posters with a hostile tone, I find the
quote above to be quite ironic.

Cheers,
