knowledge is worth sharing but.....

It will take more than this to scare my away, sleufoot . I've wanted to restore a tractor for 6-7 years. Now that I have one I'm not going to stop unless something drastic happens.

Thats good to hear because around here sometimes you
need thick skin. By the way if you want to reply directly
to a comment or person just push the reply spot inside
that comment that way that person knows who you are
talking to. Tom in Mn

I understand your point. It is why when someone disagrees with me, I let it go. Why should my opinion be superior to anyone else's opinion?

I have felt like posting an opinion similar to the one you just posted, but haven't because why should my opinion be any more important than their opinion?
The only person you can change is you. Some people play nicer than others.

WE had a co worker who had a back injury from a motorcycle accident. He made it back to work, but he had to take a lot of pain meds. Eventually he regretted coming back to work. He was taking so many meds that he admitted that he should not be driving, let alone be working in a factory. And because he had proven that he could work, getting on disability was difficult.

you keep asking questions young one. This is aimed at the posters that seem to be trying to make
others believe that their post is the only right one. I believe that all have opinions, great and
share if it is related. But the folks that are ridiculing others about the validity of their
experiences or knowledge.That isnt cool. Asking them to not want to go to the mats if their posts
dont agree. We need young people like you around if not who are we going to teach and past down
our stash of parts that are sitting in the barn for that one day when we are going to fix that....

After a while on this site, you'll learn when to scroll on through some.

(quoted from post at 10:00:16 01/26/23) Some people do not know the difference between opinion and fact

There is a 3rd category: Judgment.

A fact is established and self-evident, such as 2 + 2 = 4. Too many people place items from the other category in this one.

Judgment is a conclusion based on evidence and reason/logic. Not being established and self-evident, it doesn't have the force of Fact, but it may be all we can do based on the current state of Human Knowledge.

Opinion is personal preference: I prefer (insert political party) over (inset some other party), I prefer Whoppers over Big Macs, I prefer Deere over IH, etc. Too many people leave out the "I prefer" and simply put these in the other two categories: (Insert political party) is better than (insert other party), Whoopers are better than Big Macs, Deeres are better than IHs, etc.
