how is that the same? we're assuming that this guy has a legitimate medical condition that is aggrevated by his neighbor's activities. I'm not disagreeing that the guy is a whiney douche - just playing devil's advocate.

let's assume the disease is legit. I see no reason for the guy to fabricate the disease. What's in it for him? (furthermore, I've heard of this before on talk radio. That's not to say radio=true, but this guy didn't make it up) moving to the country would probably be my move as well, but if insurance and the courts consider this a preexisting condition, should he have to move? he lived there first?

read the OP's sizing. he's 6'1" and 190, and fits the 54. I'm pretty sure the numbers listed are EUROPEAN sizing, which means -10 in US sizing.

^ yeah, i might fit the 52... i'm 6' and about 180, but the back protector and chest protector add some thickness. in a 'normal' jacket, I wear a size 40, and I think my current suit is a 42, but fieldsheer sizing and shift sizing probably aren't identical.

so what would you do if you suffered from EMS, and someone moved in next-door with an arsenal of electronic equipment? move? faraday cage? go all Dr. Evil and invent some grand scheme to disable all electrical power on your block?

legally, i don't think he has a leg to stand on, but a jury might be sympathetic; especially a jury comprised of older individuals who, 1) probably won't understand why a computer or iPhone needs to be on 24/7, and 2) may have health problems themselves, or neighbors who annoy them in some similar capacity. I think it's an unfortunate situation for the plaintiff, but I don't foresee any 'fair' solution for him. what if the Plaintiff had severe asthma, and the Defendant smoked in her back yard, right near the AC intake for the plaintiff's home? in that case, her actions are unnecessarily aggravating his medical condition, just like her phone. (not a perfect analogy, but the best I can come up with on the fly) Couldn't the court reasonable rule that smoking in that particular place is unnecessary, and preclude the defendant from smoking in close proximity to the Plaintiff's home? is a cell-phone an "essential service" when land-lines are a completely viable option? I don't think you can possibly argue that dimmer-switches or florescent bulbs are essential either. I'll concede that the plaintiff is asking a lot of his neighbor, but I wouldn't be shocked if a jury found the requests reasonable, given the circumstances of his legitimate medical condition. An expert witness could definitely sway a jury.

^ it's the bike that says "POLICE" on the side. background of scott's bio. http://www.safetyfirstracing.com/ The race team was started by cops, but they couldn't put "police" on a street-legal vehicle (their trailer), because that would be impersonating an officer. The race bikes; however, never turn a wheel on the street, so "POLICE" is acceptable.

not sure where they shot their bio's, but Scott's has one of the "Safety First" racing bikes behind him in his... with enough searching on the WERA board, I bet I could track down the current owner of that bike.

^ strictly speaking, they make money by selling merchandise. Their PRODUCTION habits are what are(were?) illegal. I'm not sure if they still make videos. shows how much i follow the stunt scene...

i have mixed feelings on the starboyz. on the one hand, they helped popularize sportbikes. Some of my first memories of non-cruisers involve a fur-covered bike and a rider with a big star on his back. on the other hand, i feel like they also helped start the stereotype that all sportbike riders rip wheelies down the highway at 90 mph, and are constantly riding irresponsibly. But I can't help but admire their business aspirations. "hey, let's try to make some money by riding sportbikes and putting it on video. sweet."

^ did you just call an F4i a cruiser? they relaxed the ergonomics in 2003, but a stock F4i is still an incredibly capable bike (with the right rider).

the starboyz still exist? oh, and welcome.

and yet he didn't. I can't decide if the guy is that much MORE skilled than I give him credit for, or that much dumber. The guy has some balls - not that that's always such a good thing...

i would prefer the 30th, but only because i'm already riding the 10th & 11th... how much do the ducati people really mind? Plus if we outnumber them, how much do we care if they mind?

so have we established enough interest to vote on one weekend and one track? I see a poll in our future.

Putnam or Grattan would be awesome. I've been meaning to get to both for the last two years. whoever said, "putnam should only be a couple hours away for everyone" on page 2 is sadly mistaken though... I'm looking at 6 hours or more.

Al Gore needs to shovel my driveway before I watch another one of his bs PowerPoint presentations...

^ I was wondering why anyone (besides a pretty accomplished racer) would need/want two identical bikes as well, but to each his own. Plus the man said i could borrow one. quit giving him shit. Putnam 5/1 & 5/2. be there.

i wouldn't call myself "seasoned," but I don't embarrass myself on the track. My take: if you're going fast and not low-siding, your form is good enough. Larry Pegram's form sucks balls to look at (knee injury of some sort forced him to change riding styles), but the guy is fast as hell. do what works for you. Re: the initial picture, I KNOW i 'reach' for the ground early in the day, and as my speed comes up, I hang off less and lean over more. There's nothing wrong with hanging your knee way out, scuffing the puck, and then pulling your knee back up a few inches before you set it down to actually slide through a turn.

R6's look funny to me with mirrors... I just never see them on the street i guess. Welcome. Can I please borrow one?

couldn't find anything on LEO's phone number. a $50 fee is outrageous though... i wanted to buy from bud's because the shotgun i want is $180 on their site,a dn $229 at Gander Mountain. $50 fee kind of negates the difference.

where are these places? I've never heard of either, but I'm sure Boston Mills & Brandywine aren't overly popular with the Columbus crowd either.

clearly i need to ditch my ranger, and import one of these. As long as that tonneau cover is removable, I could fit the RR in the bed.

my brother's zx2 does ok in the snow. fwd is fwd... there's not much ground clearance, but that's rarely an issue anywhere by my parents' driveway.

they have a list when you attempt to check out. Let me know what you find out. I was thinking the place Independence would be close to work for me, and right down the road for you. L E OS SHOOTING SUPPLY 6411 SUNSET AVE INDEPENDENCE, Ohio 44131 I didn't see stonewall on their list, but I wasn't looking for them...
