Guys, the POLITE thing to do when someone offers a sincere appology is to accept it. For those who are continuing, you’re really no better than **Flam** was in the original thread. You don’t have to accept it-but to keep up with the pile on is in poor taste. ---

Um, guys? The only people who need to accept the apology are **Tiburon** and John. They apparently have. Ergo, case closed, whether you think the apology was weak or not. The masses don’t get to call for blood after the harmed party begs off. ---
