I think it is because people like to think the worst of me, except, 
someone whom I thought would know better posted to me privately to complain.

It well may have been a kind of whistling by the graveyard response to 
the situation.  I've only met and talked with Baron Miles a few times, 
nothing very serious, but he has always seemed very friendly, outgoing, 
and personable.  Just what one would want in a Landed Baron.

Obviously, a lot of people seem to be distracted from the fact that Her 
Excellency could probably use some help.  I certainly was not being 
mean-spirited.  I don't know why they are.
