Mea Culpa to Jon

Jon,

Somehow I feel we have gotten off on the wrong foot here. I read all
of your posts and I am impressed with the depth of your knowledge as
I am with your willingness to help others. I too have leared a few
things from them.

It takes time to craft carefully considered replies to people seeking
help or clarification. Few people put out the effort you do.

I sense I have somehow given you offense; if I have, be assured it
was unintended or was sheer obtuseness on my part. I respect your
knowledge on matters far broader than mine and I do not seek to
denigrate you in any way.

If apologies are in order, I sincerely offer them.

Mariss
