JHV…WardL’s question was valid and deserved an answer. Yes, that is what CC is all about. The issue has never been and currently is not about someone sharing information about a "life threatening” (choke choke snicker snicker) problem. Nor is it about something that is minor in nature like spark plug gaps or metric conversion tables. It is about breaching a legal agreement and publishing copyrighted material on an open forum. SCOF and its members have likely been the source of more valuable SPF information on CC than any other organization including the dealers and factory. There is NO problem with anyone sharing their knowledge without regard for where they gained it.

Since I am apparently among the idiots (or in this case the only idiot) that need to get a life, let me respond that there are other morons on this site who need to buckle up, learn some sense of responsibility and nurture some integrity. There are right ways and wrong ways of gaining what one wants. The mentality of entitlement in this country makes me want to puke. YOU GUYS who think you deserve whatever others have created are the worst kind of morons and when applied across the board your selfish theories will destroy the greatest of societies whether it is America or Club Cobra.

My comment to Blas had nothing to do with non-scof members or readers of the material. In other words, if you’re not a member of scof, it really isn’t any of your business. Perhaps my original comment to Blas was a tad harsh and for that I apologize for the tone of my comments….not the content or spirit. Blas knows me well enough to know that exaggeration is a style I embrace to make a point. I do it somewhat tongue in cheek most the time but it is meant for impact. He also knows, and has subscribed to, the rules of scof and the reasons they exist. He could have easily shared the information in question without breaking any rules, engaging in illegal activity or offending anyone and could have done so with ease. It is not like the rules are particularly oppressive.

Oddly, every one who has whined about the rules are people the rules do not affect in the slightest. So maybe you whiners who dislike scof in spite of the fact you know nothing about it should get a life or maybe protest the practice of kite flying in Holland. That should be at least as important to you.
