Frankly, Marjorie, my intent is not to argue but to clarify whether my
request be to you, Bob or anyone else.  However, I don't know the
personalities on the LIST, and oftentimes I find that there are so many
signatures-some above, some below-closures are not always clear to me.

NOW, LET'S SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT.  MY DEEPEST, MOST HUMBLE APOLOGIES,
BOB.  I'LL STAND BY PATIENTLY AND IN CONTRITION WHILE I AM FLAILED WITH
CONDEMNATION.  I ACCEPT MY GUILT.

TO MARJORIE, MY SINCEREST THANKS FOR SETTING MY PC AND ME STRAIGHT(SEEMS I
CAN USE SOME ASSIST IN THE VISION DEPARTMENT, TOO).  MY APOLOGIES FOR NOT
DIRECTING MY COMMENTS TO YOU INITIALLY.  CERTAINLY, I CONTINUE TO LOOK
FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE WHICH I KNOW IS FORTHCOMING.

In the meantime, I would also request that since many of our communiques
are lengthy and continuous-from one member to another-that some separation
be indicated.  Under no circumstances would I wish to commit this faux pas
again.
I stand humbled as I enter the headdress of the sun!
Sincerely,
E
P. S.  You handle the keyboard most competently, and you express yourself
beautifully and in a most caring way.  My response was to comments written
for the LIST.  I would hope you would post your reply in kind. If that is
uncomfortable, my email address is above.  I hope that this exchange is
between new friends.  There is no malice intended here.
