Didn't claim there was any.  The point is that Mr. Ivers frequently calls 
names, takes cheap pot shots, and makes emotive attacks--usually following 
posts of considerable substantive value that don't happen to fit his 
gimmick-of-the-moment.  This is really sad, as Mr. Ivers often DOES have 
things of substance to say, but they get lost in the non-substantive garbage. 
 It just gets old when the King of non-substantive invective accuses others 
of emoting just because he does not "get" the substance of what has been 
said.  As for Mike Sofen's comment about the gems that are lost--a great many 
simply don't post here, because they are tired of engaging in a pissing 
contest when trying to discuss matters of interest to endurance riders.  Too 
bad--it is those seeking knowledge who are the losers here.
