Perhaps you could explain to me why you find it necessary to insult me
personally. I don't know you personally, nor you me. I find your demeanor in
this situation to be apprehensible. Perhaps you feel a need to lower my status
in your own mind in order to make up for perceived short comings, I don't
know. Like I said I don't know you personally. Until now, I have found
everyone on this list to be very polite and tolerant of differing points of
view. I have CC'd this note to the list because I feel these personal attacks
are acts of cowardice when done in shadow. I apologize to the list. I don't
think I insulted you with my response to what I felt was a dictation of list
behavior. Something NONE of us has the authority to do. This is an open forum
sir, and I don't like being harassed over saying so. Again, I apologize to the
list for this major digression from the real purpose of the list, mainly a
kind exchange of ideas.
Sincerely,
Jim
