I guess I missed that guy getting banned, what did he get banned for?
Control cities CAN be off the route! Control cities make NO sense if signs end before the city is reached!

Looking at a road map, and being able to tell which roads were freeways [...] according to color.

*cough*
How, after all these years, did I not know that existed?
Hopfully, someoen can add a link to this from the aaroads homepage.

I also think continuing to bring P13 up shows that he won in the end.

Sharing a commonly hated person among members of a community seems to serve as a bond between them.  So, in a sense, I suppose he won by bringing us all closer together.

So did Ethanman. He's been gone for well over a decade now and we still bring him up.

There's a little bit of the Finn inside each of us!
Now I'm imagining a demonic fish.

Or a fictional "Law & Order: SVU" detective.


Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

Just based on those two sentences, I really regret missing this fellow.

Consider how much Calrog is brought up still.  The theory that having a common "enemy" brings the road community together seems to have time tested merit.

Interesting that when P13 was on this board, they branched off into football and "floorball" scheduling -- but on that board, P13 never branched off into road geek stuff  :hmmm:   (I will admit that I didn't read every post)
