Bob W,

What can I say other than OK, I apologize to you and to the group 
for being off-track and intolerant.  I suspect somehow there is a 
"cultural" (only word I can think of) difference between myself 
and others in the discussion and I should have simply ignored 
what  thought bothered me.  The reason I say cultural, and I wish 
I could bring up the word I really want, is because when I went 
back and re-read the post I responded to, I still felt the same 
way, but ... that's just an excuse.  It may be that I haven't 
come to "know" DF as others have here, and thus I didn't pick up 
on nuances that the rest of you did.  Therefore, I bow to the 
knowledge and considerations of yourself and others and in the 
future I will attempt to be more thoughtful.
   I abhor provoking, trolling, whatever you want to call it, and 
I agree I may have seemed that way, especially on this group.

Thank you for your calm and firm response.  I do appreciate it, 
believe it or not.  I'm pretty tired and I know that's clumsily 
worded, but it's the best I can do for the moment.  Please accept 
my apologies to DF and the other participants.  I -do- see your 
point.

Pop
