Sorry, I didn't read your next line properly, I was thinking
you wanted a free replacement.

You're probably right, but integrity and customer service
should count for something.

Maybe I'm wrong, but last time I checked, they're making the
Heckler again...

You're not wrong. I'll have my '04 Heckler frame in about
two weeks.

Because they are busy replacing broken blurbs.

Bought out? Sorry Miles, but you need to do some homework on
that. I think "ripped off" would be a more fitting term
there. Let's see tiny smellsworthless try to sue me for
libel on that one. That would be funny.

I did the Rollercoaster on Saturday afternoon. Before the
end of the trail I crashed and burned and cracked my yellow
Bell Paradox. Ended up with two Razberries on my forehead
and above my ear. Between elbow and shouder is spotted in
cuts and red.

Well, all I know for certain is that I wasn't there when it
happened, and I have heard conflicting stories of events.
Sure, I tend to believe SG's version (although in the
converation I had with him, he was fairly politic about it)
over TE's story. Still, I'm not one to slam on somebody
because of something I had heard that they'd done. I prefer
to talk about others as I would have them talk about me.

When I get the story first hand from one of the two parties
involved and know the second party to be a double-dealing
POS from another first party who was repeatedly burned by
said POS, there is no doubt in my mind as to what actually
transpired. If tiny wants to slam me for anything, I could
give a rat's ass because his word smellsworthless. Now go
ask tiny where he got the idea for his font/logo and take a
close look at any England Trucking rig the next time you
are on the freeway. Also, why don't you ask tiny where he
got the "idea" and name for the "Moment". I'm certain he'll
lie about that too...it appears to just be his way. He
couldn't light a 2 watt bulb, unless there were dollar
signs in the filament.
