Good morning, JLA, I do want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Not only for being a good sport, and asking SI administration to reinstate me, which is, of course, worth thanking you for (Thank you!) but also for agreeing to take the high road and allowing the acrimony to die down (Thank you!). I did enjoy talking to you on the phone, you sound very intelligent, educated, witty, cogent, thoughtful, it would be very difficult for me to flame you in the future, because I know you are a real human being, and a good one. Several people have told me that we are just images on computer screens, but I don't believe that. In fact, I think that thinking of each other as images on computer screens is how we get into trouble, sometimes. As Edwarda said, repeatedly, if we knew each other as human beings, we couldn't be so cruel to each other.
Hope things will go better in the future. |
