i wasn't referring to bias in regards to the shape of the poly tracks. i'm not bitching about the bias, i'm just surprised at all the maintenance issues regarding a multi-million dollar surface that was billed as maintenance free.

but if anyone would know about bias-bitching, i guess you'd recognize it for sure.
