>From Eric:

Dear Elizabeth, I apologize if my admittedly, intentionally flippant remarks
were ill-recieved, but I assure you that my goal was not to be uncharitable,
but instead to convey my point via humor. I was infusing `color` commentary
that was intended to focus some relief on the matter addressed, but if it
was percieved by others as deliberately unkind, that was not my intent...
Im not really a jerk,
hard as that is to beleive, just a stickler for decorum.

Eric, I suspect that your humour has missed the mark a bit, but any type of
name calling, or the language/comments that generate its issue, should both
be swallowed with a count to ten. [I'm beginning to sound like a school
marm...] Jim B is very tolerant of such posts - but he shouldn't have to be
a guardian either. We're all grown-ups and should be able to temper our
tempers.

All you, or anyone else, has to do is delete the posts you are not
interested in. I believe most posts get some response from others - so they
are not all as bored as you. You don't need to be such a stickler -- as the
young would say - chill out!

Elizabeth
