Re: Uh-Oh! The LD thing again

["GESA BRINKS" <gesaeqfx@pe.net>]

I did not call all newbies irresponsible.  The ones that get caught up in
the race aspect of it worry me.  They need to learn to pace rather than
race.  Yup Im a really horrible person too.  I run people off from the rides
all of the time.  Get a grip.  Geeeezz. Take a pill or something.  And I
seriously doubt that you can even come close the experiences of half the
oldbies on Ride camp, including myself.
