I grew sick of trying to educate the naysayers who were & still are too stupid to get the reality of whats happening with Bonneville that I gave up trying.

Sid,
Believe me, I "GET IT". I also find it supremely difficult to reason with the "unreasonable", and so I tend to avoid interaction with those who maintain "closed minds".
As I've aged, my "fire has diminished" and my tolerance for "stupidy" has mostly disappeared. And I also find that my blood pressure and overall cardiac condition is enhanced when dealing with Homo Sapiens as opposed to Homo Stultus or even Homo Ignoramus.
BUT, every once in a great while, a vague wisp of the "old Mark" emerges, the firebrand on a mission with a defined target. It's foolish to place yourself in the target zone of a locked and loaded Warthog, especially when the driver is willing to pull the trigger. I might not win the war with "stupidy" by myself, but I am determined to force naysayers to acknowledge that a differing point of view, based on data, does exist.
The battle to "fight the good fight" goes on . . . . . . mostly as an homage to my father, and as an example for my children . . . . .
Sid, any day you do the right thing is a good day.
