Good thing you're not a psychiatrist or you'd probably be 
 psychoanalyzing everybody on the list. I really don't give a flying 
 **** what the legal definition of lane splitting is. Lane splitting 
 to me is all about defensive driving and staying in the pocket. If 
 some less experienced rider is impeding the flow of traffic, I expect 
 that he be aware enough of his surroundings that he knows I'm behind 
 him and that he move over to allow me by. Motorcycle etiquette plain 
 and simple.

think the following makes much sense since, and again from memory, I 
 believe the requirements for legal lane splitting are that traffic 
 has to be moving less than 45mph and you cannot be going more than 
 15mph different than the traffic around you.  Doesn't leave much room 
 for "faster" and "slower" lane splitting.
