Maybe, but don't you know yet that you shouldn't try to hurry a lady. They work in a different time frame than us guys. BTW, thanks for the "insult free" post, see you can do it :-)

I thought it was a legitimate question if she was truly interested in an apology.

I encouraged Neo to share his funk with us and he got creamed. I've been working on X to get her to join us here, she finally does, and she gets creamed. I'm beginning to go into a funk of my own with guilt feelings.

X shows up. Then Bill shows up and the very first thing he posts is:

<<The stench of sanctimonious hypocrisy which oozes from your fingertips makes E's skunk-infested clothes smell good today. But please go forth and I hope you have a nice day teaching the little children.>>

At the risk of sounding, er, judgmental...I'd say that's pretty nasty. And based on old antagonisms rather than the subject at hand. You reinforced, encouraged, and embellished his comments.

I usually stay out of these things, but I thought we were trying to establish a civil place here. I know that X can give as good as she gets, but shouldn't the thread wait until she gives before she gets?

X provides a unique perspective, which I think adds to the color and texture of our discussions. I'd like to see her participate. I would hope that you and Bill would allow that.
