I was suffering from a coffee shortage, too, and just now noticed that
Michael's email went to the list and not directly to Mr. Andes, as well.
Guess I'm just as glad of that.

Hi listees and Mr. Andes -
I have to agree with Mark here. Mr. Andes words caught me bright
and early in the morning before my coffee kicked in, and I was
feeling pissy. I really should put a lock on my keyboard early in
the morning.
I apologize to the list and to Mr. Andes for my harsh choice of
words. I stand by the underlying message and sentiment of my
letter, but I regret my choice of harsh words. In hindsight, I
could have expressed my displeasure in a more tasteful way.
Regards,
MikeG

Michael:
I can tell you feel strongly about this, and I fully
understand why. But,
your overwrought diatribe does collectors no more favors
than did Mr. Andes
poorly chosen words. In fact, I think it stands to make
things even worse.
I am very sorry you chose to send it.
Not necessarily "more sophisticated," but
cringing nonetheless ...
