Dear friends, I've resubscribed so that I might express to you my sense of loss at Marc Schindler's passing. I did not always treat Marc with the respect he deserved or give adequate weight to his opinions in some matters; shamefully, I used this very forum more than once to express my displeasure at him. In fact, I thought very highly of Marc and learned much from him, not just about history and politics but about email communication, maturity, and tolerance for diverse and seeming wrong-headed opinions. As I wrote to Marc's father and brother and a few other people, this world is a better place for Marc's having lived in it, and I only hope the same can be said for each of us when our time comes to leave this sphere.
I've offended many of you with my insensitive blundering, or my sharp tongue, or my occasional sarcasm, or my strange sense of humor that often sounds like sarcasm. For that, I apologize and ask your forgiveness. Though I am no longer a part of this forum, I have fond memories of it and its participants, and sincerely wish you the best.
