fits that description precisely.

now, be honest, is that being curt or rude?


That this ploy is not apparent to
some readers strike me as they accuse me of being rude when I am curt
with someone posting BS and snide allusions.  Mr. Whiskey has been
ding this for some time now.

and exactly what kind of a comment is that?


seriously jobst, if it were possible to have a grown-up dialog, without the abuse, comparing our respective [and potentially complimentary] knowledge pools, i'd be prepared to go there.

but i don't think i see that in you. looking back through the archives, i see you repeatedly and blindly castigate [/some/ of your words] "dorky" and "BS" innocents that dare to ask simple questions. even when your response makes no sense and they rightly request clarification, you fire back with tangential red-herrings effectively declaring that the-emperor-is-fully-clothed-and-only-a-/fool/-would-ask-such-a-dumb-question-it's-so-obvious.

example: "ant" in this thread asks about indexing appearing after a crash and you give an oblique response about how the fork will mysteriously and suddenly "fret" because the head tube is bent. you don't directly answer the question because you know it will take you into the one subject of which you wish to avoid acknowledgement, brinelling of bearings.

and to me you say: "take a cast-off head bearing that is not dimpled and pound on it with a hammer and show us the shiny Brinell indentations. You won't find any." tell me in all honesty, do you really want me to do that? will you /really/ acknowledge the result when it does not accord with your preconception? or will you just declare the bearing to be somehow faulty, a mere fluke?

how about the way you dismiss timken's bearing failure information as "an ancient text that no one has bothered to update". do you really expect to be taken seriously?

/this/ is why people take issue with you jobst. you shamelessly bluster for reasons i can only guess at. what is the payoff for you?
