<VV> Apology to Roger

[Ken Wildman]

I just want to apologize to Roger Gault.

Rereading my post I realize that Roger and I essentially agree.  I took his 
comment about "lazy abusers" out of context and made that the focus of my 
post.  That was an error on my part and I apologize.

I do, however, stand by my comments about the rudeness of some others to 
sincere questions.  Those questions are submitted to the entire list and 
are not demands on any single individual's time or private store of 
information.  No one is forced to respond to a question.  If you choose not 
to because your are tired of answering the same question multiple times, or 
lack the knowledge to respond, or you are just surly, then all you need do 
is nothing.  Don't respond.

What has made this community so valuable over the many years that I have 
been a member is the spirit of helpfulness and friendlyness that always 
overcomes our brief eruptions.  We risk losing that spirit if we just 
standby when members, new or old, are treated badly.
