Can we try to focus on the issues (and avoid ad hominus personal

The reprimands are well-deserved and I'm sorry. I didn't even realize that
my nastiness evoked comment until Jim Devine replied to an apology I sent

gutter in the future. Far better to charbroil our enemies intelligently than
our allies mean-spiritedly.
