RE: Tall Flames from Little Acorns Grow....




Greetings to the Dead Horse 8^), and especially to Henry Best!

Henry sez:
%I said:
%> Okay, okay. I didn't see the post Annie is responding to either.

My mind must have skipped over that too casually.  *I've* been sitting too
close to *my* monitor.  Then again, it's a HUGE monitor--it is a bit 
difficult
to escape from....  Apologies to you, Henry.

%NEXT time, I will say:
%
%DISCLAIMER: As I am writing in reaction to a post which is in reaction
%to a post which neither I nor the reactor of the second part ever actually
%read, please disregard any comments or allegations which are not 
applicable.
%The party of the first part intends to be a generally reasonable person;
%but wishes to give public support for an overworked and underthanked 
friend.
%
%Or some sort of babble to that effect.

     (apologies to author)

%Siobhan, Ellwood, please accept my apologies for any inconvenience I may
%have caused you. I had hoped that by admitting up front that I had not
%read whatever upset Annie, I would protect you from whatever unhappiness
%I might inappropriately generate.

Well, things really have gotten out of whack over some of what I thought 
were
innocuous comments.  I'd like to call out the fire department and hose down
all these embers before they turn into flames.  Sorting out how to speak
in email is a tricky business!

%Oh, and Ellwood: I _never_ put anything vital near my monitor.....

Henry, it was a JOKE!  I even pointed out the smiley to make sure....  I was 
just
curious how anyone would come to the conclusion that the Principality would
solve any perceived "problems" with the _Acorn_.

Apologies for wasted bandwith.
In service,
Ellwood
