Agreed that this was an attack on you, but as you said, I wanted
to make it clear that what you were saying, offends someone.
I had taken a one paragraph from you elaborating about how I should
get off my duff and go transcribe the tapes, an activity I will be doing. What
I disagreed with at the time was the ferocity of your statements, and that
is my only complaint against your messages.
Thank you for your response,
