Re: you really should check before you say "You are WRONG" to someone.

Yep! I sure should!

Because you were *ABSOLUTELY CORRECT* that that word "naturalized" *DOES APPEAR* in the Constitution of the United States of America.

(Just not in the section about required qualifications to be a President of the United States....)

My apologies for the error, and thanks for the correction!

Re: "A little more humility is in order."

Sure!

How about this:

"I offer a complete and utter retraction. The imputation was totally without basis in fact, was in no way fair comment, and was motivated purely by malice, and I deeply regret any distress that my remarks may have caused you, or your family, and I hereby undertake not to repeat such a slander at any time in the future."

-- John Cleese, while being dangled from a window by Kevin Kline in the 1988 film "A Fish Called Wanda."

(Don't think I can put it any more elegantly. :-)
