When I saw your initial reply to Antonio's warm gesture, I was tempted
to write and express my wish that you receive the lump of coal for
Christmas that seemed merited by your remarks.

However, I was impressed by your ability to recognize and willingness to
apologize for your mistake. That does take some courage!

And so I wish you and every one on this list a very happy holiday
season.

And may we all learn from this mistake and resolve for the new year to
treat everyone with courtesy and respect.
