You are making fun his pants. Did somebody say that I WASN'T HELPING HERE?
If you are posting anonymously then you are a troll as far as I am concerned. I'm doing something towards getting a DQ. I have a media connection that will be writing a a story about why the RD will not look at new evidence.
What are any of you doing besides calling Mike names?
Ken you have been posting here for all of two months and don't understand that letsrun is one of the few forums allowing anonymity to encourage free flow of information. If you'd read the mission statement between rants you'd know that just because you post anonymously doesn't mean you are a troll.
Many of us are not so foolish as to you. We do not want to give our true identifies for fear of weirdos doing things like cyberstalking (or real stalking). Guys like you.
So don't demand people to start posting their names. You don't mind exposing yourself to the online world, on fact you enjoy it.
If you'd been posting here for more than two months and on any other threads you might not this. Try reading the mission statement... it might shock you to find out it is about running! Not cheetos and oreo baths with curvy straws!

Our History
LetsRun.com was founded in the spring of 2000 by twin brothers Weldon (“Wejo”) and Robert Johnson (“Rojo”). Weldon had qualified for the 2000 Olympic Marathon Trials and decided to quit his job as an economic consultant to move to the mountains of Flagstaff, Arizona to pursue his long shot dream of the Olympics. Robert decided to move to Flagstaff to help Weldon with the arduous training weeks of up to 140 miles.
Truth be told, the Brothers Johnson (aka “Brojos”) had a lot of free time on their hands as fortunately most human beings don’t run more than 3 hours a day. This little thing called the internet was fairly new and there was one problem, there wasn’t a website for people who lived and breathed running.
So LetsRun.com was born.
