What about looking at rear view mirros?

BTW, welcome to page 25. I agree, we're repeating ourselves with not much of dead horse left to beat.

I agree, this topic is so old I'm growing a beard myself. Lets nip it in the bud now.

I'm calling for a ceasefire, its 2 weeks since the race and the matter should be officially closed!

If you all have any respect for myself and other forum users you'll all stop posting now.

From page 23 I think

Please Tomba / Principessa, consider locking this thread, either that or someone find me a bucket. I'm feeling sick from going round in circles. Everyones opinion has already been individually established. (a few times over) and we are considerably O/T by now. :sick:

I agree that this thread should be locked but not because someone wants to silence anyone but because we've already stated our opinions.

BTW, sickness and need for bucket is something we share.

You better hurry before they close this thread! :wink:

You could find this thread pretty interesting, at least if you are a Stafford Beer fan. It has over 350 replies from more than 50 individuals and 30 of them have already posted in the first 5 or so pages. The last 3 pages have been an attempt to close the conversation.

I am not worried about this thread: I am worried about the next one!

To save server space next time, please try to pick a number from the following list.

1. (fill with name) did it

2. No, he did not

3. It could be a mistake

4. Yes, he did it. He has a history: (fill with story)

5. No, he did not. Your story is wrong: (fill with wildly different version of
same story
)

6. It is the (fill with number)th time you say the same thing. Remember (fill with story)?

7. Who cares? This is a world where only the strong prevail, muahahaha!

8. (fill with name) posted this: (fill with URL or image). It shows my position is right

9. I am tired of this thread

10. Are you tired of this thread? This shows that my position is right

11. (fill with name distorted to mock it) s*cks! And (fill with another distorted name) s*cks even worse! And... (repeat)

12. This interaction is interesting

Please, feel free to add to the list. I skip the "Shut up!"-"No, I won't"- "Somebody shut him up!" part, I know.

P.S. I think that if we work together, we can actually write a program to make threads automatically! This would be an interesting thesis, at least.

His car was hardly destroyed like you say was it Manchild?
I wouldn't have called it optomistic (granted I'm not a Schuey fan but...) schuey had damaged his car, true, and MAYBE he still didn't have a thorough understanding of his car's handling, but then when Hill is allongside at the apex of the corner, Michael has to give the room, squeeze yes, but dont come together like that. If Hill is allongside Schumy by approximately half a car's length by the time they are at the apex of the corner it cannot possibly be an over optimistic move can it? Seeing as if he is at that point there is a distinct possiblity he could complete the move and gain a place.

Even if Michael didn't intend to hit hill's williams, it was still a poor move by Michael who was - at the point of contact - in the middle of being over taken, and should have left room for the two of them to safely negotiate the corner.

13. Aliens did it (fill in the evidence). And yes, they are red, not green.

14. Patrese says Michael to be witch-hunted, therefore Michael is a witch. As we all know, witches fly on brooms. You obviously cannot stall the broom, but you can spear it into the barrier just fine.
As you can see it was a genuine mistake and all the confusion was caused by the illusion of a red painted car we all think we have seen there.

Ignis Fatuus, you finally found it. Now we know why the Ferrari goes broom, broom instead of vroom, vroom.

NickT, if you do not like this thread, the best you can do is not to read it. :wink:

Ciro Pabón, thanks for more evidence. What puzzles me is how he made all those stewards believe they were pushing a car. :lol:
