Only egos allowed
I've been lurking on this car forum a bit. I think the thread title pretty much gives my impression. Don't think I'll bother to sign up, tho there is some tech info to be gleaned.
Anybody else get the same impression as I? Corner-Carvers Forums - Powered by vBulletin

I will accept your opinion.
I already know everything there is to know about racing and suspension setup anyway.

Yes - certainly not the same type of personalities over there as here at Pelican, thank goodness.

LOL! Sorry, but to say these guys are harsh is an understatement. Hey, I did say there is tech info to be gleaned.

I have noticed for quite some time that I don't get many comments back on the things that I write. I guess most of those reading what I write agree that what I write is a realistic possibility. The only rhetorical comments I seem to get are by those who are so far out in left field that they can't see the infield..

Slakjaw - I am a forum member on that forum too - I just don't post there anywhere near as much here. Seems the OT threads are not as interesting to me as those here on Pelican.

I fully admit that I do rework themes..however what you can expect is that some new nuance or refinement is going to appear. Another angle of view. What you get from me is a clear and concise analysis presented in short and straight to the point sentences. Every sentence is jam packed with essential goodness. What I have been getting good at is the ability to abstract complex ideas from a stream of consciousness and put them down in a clear, concise and coherent fashion. It is from the brain to the keyboard in a straight line that is taut, clean and with tension. . Jung talks about persona and the different masks that we wear. A public msk and a private mask. What I have been doing is is integrating the 2 persona's so that they are one and the same.. It is becoming very easy to get get at the essential quality of the object of the analysis and represent those qualities and mechanisms in writing..what I am saying here reallly isn't the ego speaking but a self awareness of a phenomen going on with how I think, present ideas, models and mechanisms.

Not all your posts have been flops Tabby, some of them are still great reads... honestly though some of them have gone into the sky is falling mode... you need to bring out more history and facts in a Michael Savage kind of way that points to you conclusion.... I like most here enjoy learning information that we aren't aware of..... Now pass those Eggos...

When one comes to a fork in the road and a decision has to be made of which road one is to go down. One has to realize that when one chooses it precludes all the choices one has if one has taken the other road. Every option that one is presented with while on the road one has chosen is based upon the decision to go down that particular road. That is why choosing the road of deficit spending has led us to where we are at today. Further the choices or options one is presented with deteriorate or become more limited the farther one travels down that road. In 2008 the financial system cracked. We are now in the process of change..the sky is falling if you will. What will the next shoe to fall be in the metamorphosis of this nation. One might say that the "sky is falling" only when you compare what you had yesterday with what you have today and can project what you have in the future politically, economically, spiritually and materiality.
