    Yea,i think i could safely say ive "seen the light" in terms of KB changing my views on something.Nothing recently tho ,but a while back i had a few debates on riding style which i originally disagreed on but have now taken on board and applied with good results

    I used to believe that a million monkeys banging away randomly on typewriters could, given enough time, produce the greatest works of literature ever written.

    Thanks to the KiwiBider I now know that this is not true.

    I have a theory that no one ever really changes their mind. Sure you can learn new things and meet great people but once an opinion is formed it is a very rare thing that that opinion gets changed.

    I think in general you are right.

    If my mind is made up, there is no easy way for someone to change it. However I like to think that I generally have a fairly open mind on most matters, so yes, KB has changed my perspective on a lot of things.

    It's the old storey - when the pupil is ready, the teacher will appear. Unfortunately, most haven't a clue what the hell that even means.
