It's up to all of us to try and use more appropriate terminology in life. Saying it doesn't offend us is somewhat meaningless since we should be concerned about the people it does offend. While the pc police can get a bit out of control having lived down south for a long time I often hearrd the term n word rigged so yes ghetto rigged is just an extension of that line of thinking. And while some whites do live in the ghetto the term carries obvious racial overtones. It's hard sometimes to know what is offensive and what is not, and in that case I always err on the side of non-offensive words. Having also lived in NYC its refreshing there to have a place where so many ethnicities have to live along side each other, it promotes a deeper appreciation for other cultures and you get to learn that some terms and words you used casually growing up are offensive to some groups of people. Education and multiculturalism are the keys to battling racism, in my opinion. Oh, and does anyone know if a bike shop will hook up that split tube setup for you? I am pretty hands on but hate doing tire and wheel stuff as I always seem to get filthy in the process. On Apr 21, 2014 2:38 PM, "Patrick Moore" <bertin...@gmail.com> wrote:
