Yo,
I have been reading a lot of threads lately, and come to this conclusion;
1)There are people who think that displaying animosities and barbs are clear winners.
2)There are people who think that the quiet ones are insignificant thin skinned losers.

I think I know why Terry left the forum earlier. He was too intelligent for most of the "Family" of our group and was easily offended.  Not necessarily thinned skinned, but could see the situation from "out of the box" thinking. I don't handle a candle to the level of his education, but I can see what he see that goes with this forum.

We all go to the Gatherings to welcome each other as "friends", but how true is that really.
I've seen more barbaric behavior in this forum than I may have seen in my entire life. And I didn't have a easy life. Long story. But yet, we have to accept one another because we ride a Harley or the other "H".
So to start this "stirring of the pot", I have a very important question.

Do we have to go back in our evolution and behave as our cave dwelling fore fathers, to be accepted by one another?

DC,

You would have to add another parameter to the mix, good or bad. But your response was appreciated. Another above average.

George
So now is it good or bad to be Outspoken or Quiet that would put an individual in the average or above average? And I am not referring to Thick skin.

Too bad I don't know the poll setup.

  Wut?

Another possiblity may be the free choice to ignore the words knowing from whence they came.

I beg to differ, sir.  I, for one, question your statement of intelligence being based on education.  Education does not make one smart.  I'm just an Ol' Country Boy with NO education, but I'll match witts with anyone here, on any subject.  If by some fluke I was to get jammed up, I would call on 2Lane, or BLM777, for information.  As for your comment of having seen more "barbaric behavior" on this Site than you have seen in your entire life reflects a life sheltered from reality, such as Bar-Room Brawls, Union busting, and Hell-Raising in general, which would be a life akin to a life lived by Ray Charles, in my view.  I don't envy you, nor do I miss TC.  His loss, as far as I'm concerned.  I've enjoyed my time here on this GREAT SITE, in every way, and will continue to do so as long as I live and breathe.  There endeth the lesson.  Later--HUBBARD

HUBBARD, you've always had my respect.

Thank you HUBBARD - from an uneducated quiet sort who doesn't feel the need to debate with these folks - I too would defer to TwoLane for extreme knowledge when required.
