Ok, Ok,
I haven't spoken up until now on this subject because I thought it could be handled with civility.
This is going nowhere.
All additional posts which further divide the club on this thread, will be deleted.

OK, Theron says everyone outta Stu's 'pool'. Grab a fact sheet and dry off.
Hey, what's with the yellow water over there? All this pissing and moaning just means more chlorine (or someone drove a SAW too close to the edge)...
No more running(on and on and on) All right, who copped the little guy's flip-flops? You click-ee IM boyzzz hiding something over? C'mon, fess up...
You, yes you, the one with the roadster, shame on you. Put Stu down.
"What? What do you mean you already did? Oh. I guess you did!"

For the survey. My Speedster was ready and 100% when I picked it up. Henry had driven it for nearly two weeks, including commutes in all weather. It was received just as Bob Miller's, Bill Steele's, Robert "Biggs'", Dale Bate's, Dan Palmquist's, Scott Sloan's, and others were; 100% ready. It now has close to 9,000 miles on it in less than a year.
There's my input for the survey.

7,500 trouble-free miles so far.
Well, all I can say is with all these admonishments, I barely could eat my dinner tonight at Asia De Cuba, but ACT's production of David Mamet
I am personally embarrassed that I got snookered into joining this stupid foray. To all I appologize.

OK, I will come clean on what just happened on this thread from my perspective.
For anyone that does not know, Jim Ward is a recipient of a double lung transplant. Jim is in the minority of people that have lived as long as he has after such a procedure. Occasionally Jim goes through a rejection episode where the doctors and nurses of his transplant team scramble to find a new cocktail that will re-establish the delicate balance in his system that allows him to live another day. Recently Jim has been going through just one of those episodes where he has been in and out of the hospital and largely horizontal with IV

So Bill - Does that mean your going to come back as Jennifers' sister?
Bill, I was with you all the way to the criticism of Theron.....
We have this thing called "FREE SPEECH".....I fought for it, as Jim
did, and a lot of other folks, Short of a bloodbath, I would like to think that freedom exists on this site. I may not like what I read, but you have the right to say what you please....We all have that right. I don't know you from a hole in the wall, or Stuart, I don't take sides based on the individual, you mean nothing to me. I do so based on the conversation at the time. You may be an A-hole today, based on something you said but I may totally agree with you tomorrow, again based on what is being said..........
example: Jim is a legend on this site, and I love him (not like that) but there has been times when he pissed me off....no big deal, I feel no less of him.....some of you need to learn a little about people if you ask me.......
On the lighter side, here's a pic.....

Now I may say Vince is a moron (sometimes) but he sure has good taste in beer!(and Hawaiin shirts and modes of travel come to think of it)
Son of a gun Vince! Great photo!!!
Bill you make to many assumptions.
My discussion disagreement had very little to do with IM.
Jim is a big boy and can defend himself and we have had at it. However this was not directed at Jim as a matter of fact I applauded him. Using Jim as an excuse for your conduct or worse his health condition is pitiful You may note he nor I use our conditions as an excuse nor would I have mentioned mine if you had not attempted to use JIms condition as cover for your crappy e-mails on this string. How dare you use that as an excuse for your conduct. It offends me more than any thing you have said cause it cuts to close for me you weak little man.
I have disagreed with Jim, I have been an A Hole here before. I respect Jim especially his salt cause I know way better than you what he goes through. I live a brand of it with "ITP":I have had a number of organs removed entirly or partially including my spleen completely and was sparked back to life in surgery after my heart stopped. I take some of the same drugs Jim does (which I know alter moods, and I remember a a string where someone was insensative enough to throw that in Jims face which I thought was replusive.
I seek no quarter for my health issues not have I seen Jim either
Went dormant due to work/travel having concluded the third largest real estate transaction in your fair cities history follwed by my wife having been in a terrible accident which required a private jet to get her home after three weeks in the hospital
I ain't perfect however I don't get my jollies by pulling the wings off of flys.
Basically you make a lot of pressumptions and there is no excuse for your embarassingly poor judgement or the sport you took in exercising it. I have thick skin and agree if you dish you better be able to take. As I said know I can be an ass hole but you have exceeded my worst and anyoone here in my brief experince on SOC.
I will not make anymore comments on you and will stick to cars.
Frankly I aplogize to all for this thread and your having to experince it.
My conduct will be modified moving forward. Life is to short as at least wo of us on this thread know and possibly more.

By the way great photo Vince!!!!!!
Sorry "very little to to do with JIM" NOT IM
Respect your post. don't particulary like you either as you know and I understand your
just not worth it.
I have said what I have to say and stand by it.

Stu, I hate to say this... but I don't like you. When you started posting again, I was hopeful.. but you started attacking and baiting right off. That's when I knew I did not like you... before that I just thought we disagreed. And, Bill is a heck of a good guy and a friend. So are Vince and Troy, even tho' we agree to disagree at times. And so are many others that posted. They are all people I like. But you? Man, I've tried, but this last round was too much.
I stayed off the threads and thought you would eventually tire of the thread baiting.
Your health may be a factor some times, but not an excuse to set bait on a thread, especially for me if you knew about my issues. I'm sorry for your condition, I really am. I'm ok with mine and cannot offer any excuses. I did not post in reaction to your baiting because I did not want to play.. I'm tired of it. But you persisted... you kept at it until you got a reaction from Bill. I still did not react, until you posted this last outrage. This thread could have died last night.. and even today after Vince and Troy made their last statements... but you wouldn't let it go. Too bad Stu. You could have written me privately about your condition and written Bill to say your peace... but no00000000000000ooooooo!
You did bait this and other threads. Shame on you. You had a target, here I am. (That first post was not all that clever.)
Damn, I lost that restraint!!!!!!! I'm outa here!
