Geez, Melinda, read for comprehension much? Nick's been pretty clear in
qualifying his statements as specific to his area. You've insulted him,
you've told him you know his area better than he does, and you've pretty
much done everything possible to be as unpleasant as you can be, and I
commend Nick for continuing to respond to your nonsense in a rational
manner.

If you go back to the beginning, Nick claimed that there
were no responsible snowmobilers and that he'd like to see
the things banned. Nick is wrong. I guarantee that there
are people in his area who own snowmobiles, have them
registered, and only ride on legal trails, even if it means
trailering to them. Nick also claims to be a libertoonian
and has, in the past, lost his **** when someone made
similarly ridiculous statements about guns.

When have I claimed to be a libertoonian? I let it slide the first
time, but I've never made such comments. I am very pro gun. I'm also
very pro choice, and pro gay rights. I also strongly supported federal
funding of stem cell research. My political opinions run the range from
very liberal to very conservative on an issue basis and I don't know of
any political affiliation I fit into. My remark regarding banning
snowmobiles was offhand and not nearly as serious as you seem to have
interpretted it as. I know for a fact that there are at least a few
people who trailer their snowmobiles to legal trails in order to use
them responsibly, but people who actually use their snowmobiles in my
area are doing so illegally, unless it is done on their own private
land.

Oh, Nick, Nick, Nick. Don't be an ignorant schmuck.

But hey, let's accept for the sake of argument that there
are no legal snowmobile trails where you are, and that no
private owners allow others to ride on their property (which
would also constitute "legal trail"). Even if that were
true, do you really think that "I've never seen it so it
doesn't exist" is any kind of argument that a grown-up would
make?

obviously you are a total ignorant schmuck outside of cornell
