Ok, ok, I retract my statement about Cali and apologize for you taking the lighthearted jab very seriously.
But I have to tell you, based upon your insistence that Joel and others should see tragedy and avoid it, if you live near the fault line out there and an earthquake devestates the place, I ain't donating no money to a relief fund for iq challenged folks who should have known better than to live in a state with a major fault line and a history of earthquakes.
That sound logical to you?

A STRONG trend I have seen in the many people I ask opinions of about the Polytrack on a daily basis is that 90% of the people who do NOT like it have what I consider as an ery advanced level of knwoledge when it come to horse racing, and of the people who are advoctaes of Polytrack, about 90% of them have a very elementary knowledge of horse racing and only understand short term, on-the-surface issues...

That is a fast from a general observation I've made, and thats NOT A GOOD THING AT ALL.....that's like having a bunch of naive 18yos having a najority vote on who the next President will be (which is what MTV and P Diddy attempted to do when they had their hidden agenda on trying to get a democrat in office a few years ago with their VOTE OR DIE campaign IMO)...

If you don't understand the game you shouldn't have a lot of weight in the conversation of Polytrack....just my opinion..

Or, how about I just debate with the 10% of people in this industry QUALIFIED to argue on bealf of polytrack because they have an intimate knowledge of this industry.....none of you have shown me that you fit in that category....so yes, I'm probably better argueing with myslef about it until a formidable debater comes about...

Then clean up that first post. Because if you do know something about the industry, that was a very sloppy attempt at debating Polytrack. Incredibly sloppy.

I met a guy that knew his Physics backwards and forwards, but when he explained to me that the government had tried to place a chip in his head, and the US currency was produced by Arab nations, his opinions on everything carried quite a bit less weight.

You and the others that do it aren't impressing anyone, and it is kind of sad. Most of your posts are done to get a debate going where then you try and "flex your muscles", telling everyone how you are right because you know more. So why even start a thread? Your act is realized by many a poster on here as witnessed the other night. Seriously, you have a lot of good to say, but the constant chest pounding thing is getting to be real worn out.

And, most imprtantly, I PUT MY NAME OUT THERWE AND DON'T HIDE BEHIND A PHONY SCREEN NAME.....If you want to consider yourself as much of an insider, then you puit your name out there and let us know who you are - and then maybe you can teach the public about racig? Frankly, you can call it arrogance or what you will, but I get PMs all of the time with people who apparently aren't as 'advanced as you' who want my opinions on things and say that they learn from what I have to offer.....That is why I post here...So continue to hide behind your screen name and be a hater...

By the way, Did your mom name you DaHoss?..Or is this Michael Dickinson?

I think the whole argument is some people see this as a tragedy and others see it as an opportunity for the industry to grow. Those are two factors that are arguable, but no fact will be known for years to come.

Ok, thats cool, and you too Titan Sooner.
But Titan my point was that you can't always see the future.
And Pgard, in no way would I compare polytrack to new coke. New Coke was of dire concern.

Well, you have to have a large and fair sample before you can have any factual data to decipher.

They used it on training tracks over the last few years, obviously with good results or it would have never made it to the main tracks.

Apparently part of the jury lies in Europe. I personally would try and get a hold of some of the people in Europe who are knowlegeable and train on it. Polytrack may be a passing fancy here. But if it is not, I would try and be ready. If its really that important, which it would be to me if I was in the position to have to deal with it.
