You missed my point entirely and I actually strayed from it myself with the whole walking all over you comment. The point was it is a noisy world and it is going to happen. My pipes give me pleasure and the point was my pipes (and any others) are not nearly as loud as many other disturbances in the world yours, mine, or anyone elses. Our bikes are just not that loud no matter what pipes you have. I car went by a few minutes ago that would drown my bike out easily. I also live pretty rurally and there is no one to disturb. I didn't move up to management as fast as I did by not knowing when it is appropriate to be considerate. Wal Mart is very heavy into respect for the individual even if they don't follow it themselves. I don't bother the people around me and they don't bother me, our interaction is always friendly and they sometimes stop over when something mechanical won't work and I am always more than happy to go see if I can fix it for them. I don't interact much with anyone around me as they are not the kind of people I like to hang with. I tend to hang in a rough crowd.(sometimes people get shot)Most of my good friends are either dead, in jail, or gone.
