Apology to Helen

[Drew99GT]

It's miss-communication of this magnitude that could have escalated the Cuban Missile Crisis! A few days ago, I could no longer post on the board. I could log in and I could PM Helen (that still has me scratching my head). I thought I'd been banned. Been close several times before. So I basically lost my temper and gave Helen a serious rant.

Turns out, the add-on noscript got buggy and was blocking javascript on this board.

Sorry about that Helen!

Most crises in my life are of my own doing and I still can't get that through my skull.

You should be banned.

Just kidding.

Been there. Done that.

testing. OK, it still works!

That is the nice part of this board, while all folks make mistakes,
what makes this a good place, in my mind, are the willingness of the members to take responsibility for their actions.

I am glad to have this forum to visit!

Drew,

We all make mistakes and it takes a very big person to admit it. Thank you. I was partly to blame because a long time member would not be upset without cause. I should have ask more questions as to what was happening.

Tony banned me, or at least I think it was him, it was such a long time ago, and Helen nearly banned me recently, as I shold have been, due to a problem I won't go in to. We all have bad days but need to keep them of BITOG.

My Dad relayed this anecdote to me many years ago:

He was fishing, and a fellow fisherman was getting
his line hung-up in trees on several casts. Finally
after getting hung-up once again, he threw his
fishing rod in the water, and stomped off muttering
"@#$% you Richard Nixon".......

That's a deep and interesting story. It's going to take some meditation for the full weight of it to sink in.

Wow; thankfully I haven't lost it as bad as Max_Wander!

It is good to see that people are cool about this kind of stuff, as there are plenty of things to be upset about lately....
