There is one person in particular (let's call him "Mr X") who would love to believe that I am massively unpopular on this newsgroup, and that pretty much everyone except one or two supposedly equally unwelcome "cyclist-haters" is desperate for me to stop posting, and sees nothing of value in anything that I write.

So, no trick: is he correct? If you find my posts so unpalatable that you not only aren't that interested in them, but you actively and passionately want me in particular to stop posting, now is your chance to say so. If enough people do so then they will probably get their wish. If most people don't bother then Mr X (who could he possibly be?) will, for the first time ever in his life I'm sure, be proven wrong.

I've no idea which way it's going to go, but I'll be interested to find out: if the truth is inconvenient then it's best to face up to it rather than desperately suppressing it, don't you think, Mr X?

Needless to say (or at least it should be), socks (e.g. "N Ron Hubbard") and those who don't normally post here (e.g. people who Mr X invites here specially for this topic, because that's what he's like) need not apply.
