Shubert, A friend of mine told me that, if I made a reply while I still felt hurt, I would be sorry. She was right. She suggested that I write you in private. I wouldn't listen. She was right again. My knee-jerk reaction has caused a public mess. I am sorry too. Please let's put this thing behind us. There are a couple of things I know I am right about. "The 'net isn't the only thing in this world that ain't perfect." (I'm living proof.) And you, my friend, are a mountain of a man. George ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++ My darkness inside is full of stars - and each one has a name. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shubert Kersey Jr." <skersey2@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <pchelpers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2004 12:48 AM Subject: [pchelpers] Re: Firewalls I'm not so stupid as to think there are > absolutes when the patterns we see in the computing world so clearly > indicate otherwise. I am sorry George, but I never thought that way. I guess my wording left a lot to be desired. Please forgive any offence I have caused you. >It doesn't sit well with me for you to suggest that I am. I never intended to imply anything George that lessens my feelings about about your ability. I, like you am a learner. I guess I should not have emphasized anything by the capital letters. I only wished to draw attention to the fact that you already know. Please accept my appologies. Probably I should have emailed directly to you. Sorry for not doing so. So I make this public plea for your forgiveness. Please! yb shubert Regards, John Durham (list moderator) <http://modecideas.com/contact.html?sig> Freelists login at //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/lsg2.cgi List archives at //www.freelists.org/archives/pchelpers PC-HELPERS list subscribe/unsub at http://modecideas.com/discuss.htm?sig Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
