For you

Here's a description (that I posted to one of the rec.sport.bicycles groups in 1994) of an experiment I performed to answer a debate about whether liquid nitrogen can be used to break bike locks.

Someone posted the question "are banana peels biodegradable?" to one of the bikes groups. I responded with this article, which was reprinted in several biking club newsletters. I also wrote a couple of articles about Roshambo (a.k.a. Rochambeau or Rock Paper Scissors).

A clerical error almost made me ineligible to play with my Ultimate team at the National Championships. When this came to light, I got lots of support on rec.sport.disc, and a few people weighed in with more ambiguous comments...including this hilarious poem by Death or Glory's Eric Zaslow.

Also from rec.sport.disc, here's a recent exchange of insults between me and Ken Dobyns.

Delving further into the rec.sport.disc archives, here are some amusing (to me) old posts about the ethics of "stacking" teams against the tournament organizers' wishes, etc.
