I had a bad day; everyone has bad days once in a while. In retrospect it was a bad idea, but it seemed like a good idea at the time. You know, when you think you're just being stern, but you cross the line and become overtly hostile. I did not mean for the thread to burst into a flame war, and I did not mean to anger so many people. But just in my defense, why is it okay for Mr. Sarginson to use mis-conceived assumptions and hostility as a means to criticize me, but I am forbidden to use the same in at least a directed argument? Please don't take this the wrong way, but in my eyes, Mr. Sarginson's post had as much point as mine, maybe even less. This is all I will say about this matter. Mr. Sarginson, if you have issues with me and you wish to discuss them, I urge you to email me personally (off the list) and we can discuss these in private. The same goes for anyone else I have offended; I will extend a personal apology to anyone who emails me directly and requests such. Once again, I sincerely apologize for my behavior on this list. I am never interested in making enemies but sometimes the worse half of me takes over. I also apologize for causing the list to be polluted with off-topic posts. Once again, this is a generic apology; if anyone wishes to discuss this matter with me any further, I urge you to contact me directly and keep this discussion off the list. I've done enough damage already without polluting the list further. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
