Thanks for sticking up for BG. He's certainly earned the benefit of the doubt.

No. If you access this group via email, it would seem to be a simple thing to delete a Subject line to start a new thread. However, it does not start a new thread thread on the web interface, so what may have been a good-intentioned act to start a new thread may not appear that way to those accessing via the web. I'm inclined to give Bruce the benefit of the doubt. There have been a few discussions of non-Riv models recently, which I think is not particularly helpful to the specificity of this list. Bruce's post was clearly labeled, and I find it to be the equivilent of anyone posting a non-Riv product to the list. Honestly, given his position in terms of active frame builders who were doing it before a good many of us were born (or at least actively cycling), I have a hard time coming down on him posting - my personal opinion is that I would like to see him be financially successful as a framebuilder. He's earned that in my book. On the other hand, this list is about Rivendell products, and I think a number of us are guilty of diverging from that, particularly in the last month or two.
