I'm going to reply on list only because this comment was made on list.

Robert, this information was PUBLIC P U B L I C!
It was not a secret! It was not private. It was not anything that some
one with a keyboard, a computer, and a few fingers couldn't have
uncovered.

I'm sorry if I spoiled Christmas for you.
I'm sorry if, in your mind, Lary is hurt, and Jeff are hurt.
And I'm sorry that I had a little fun pointing the curious to the info.

I'm also sorry that I've had good food to eat today and there are
people starving in other countries. Maybe I'll skip dinner because,
again in your mind, that's what's right.

Sincerely
Rusty
