Folks,
I can see no way to open an email by saying "not to nit-pick", to follow that up with "I am picking on you", and then to close the email with "I hate to pile it on" without picking up the sceny of one's own ass in the air. Further, to speak from one side of the mouth about incorrectly filching one's good name, while the other side of the mouth blames the person whose reputation was impaired for his own misfortune is just unspeakable. Now for a "shout out": Dale, you own this listserver, and if you want to kick me off of it then go ahead. But what you told David should have been said privately, with more tact, and with more contrition.
