if you fear viruses, just do what i do. get email in text only, and never open any attachments you didn't specifically ask for (and get a good anti-virus program).   i thought the "manual virus" thing was pretty darn funny myself, but maybe it's an inside joke (i'm a programmer). mw

I thought is was funny too. Both parts: The original honor virus and the manual virus protection part... I turned the idea into a vb script, only goes over well with other code hacks though, would NEVER find it loose on this list! In my non-Rev. time I manage a software testing (breaking) team for a respectable firm. --- Rev.

Well, the last 2 weeks have been hell for me (bike still short one rear brake and me shorter of fuse) but I noticed a couple of things after being forced back into my cage by the bad mechanic (parts-changer as Knot correctly id'd the guy). I found it funny that you "drive" a car and "ride" a bike. Seems backwards if you ask me. Takes a lot more awareness and skill to be atop 2 wheels and exposed than to be sitting in a lush Captain's chair cruising around oblivious to the outside world, lulled into a false sense of security by the thousands of pounds of steel surrounding you. Just a thought that crossed my mind while I was day-dreaming behind the wheel... Damn I hope that caliper arrives tomorrow! I'm going crazy pushing my KLR across the street every other day for street cleaning.
