Yeah... I mean he would throw out occasional insults here & there and work an argument to death. He was stubborn but I didn't find him any different than some of the other posters here & they're still around. But then again, I don't read every single posting or follow every single thread so...maybe it's something I missed.

You mean a metro north ticket won't work? (Joking, but you see how often I take one.)

I feel the same way. I'd like for him to be able to come back. He should come to the meetup regardless.

Now, I'm all confused... I said commuter rail... Doesn't mean I use Metro-North.

Wait, did you guys not realize the flat-out lies he was telling as “BuildingLover”? He was seriously just making stuff up. I thought that was the last straw that warranted at least a timeout.

My main problem with him was that I felt he derailed a lot of potentially productive threads with his race obsession and his very strict/weird way of defining things. Just got really annoying.

Guess I didn't notice, but that's not surprising given the murky swamp waters I'm wading through every time I look at a new thread.

Yeah. I guess my question is, he's not the only one who's been accused of doing that (making stuff up and derailing threads) so why single him out? But I agree the obsession with race/skin color was unique only to him so maybe that's what did it on top of all the other stuff. I don't know.
