If you aren't willing to make an honest apology, phyllis, then don't
bother making an insincere oone. You don't apologize by repeating the
offense for which you are allegedly apologizing, If you really wanted
to apologize then you would have refrained[1] from writing "I maintain
the opinion expressed" and would have taken the trouble to get my name
right.
[1] Surely in your years of experience you have encountered the
concept of a tombstone announcement.
