>Are you insane?

A bit.

>Apologize to Mark for what?

For what you said.  Go back and read it.

>There ain't no way in Heaven or Hell that I'm going to actually
>apologize to Mark

Well, I just said it would be agreeable to me.  The safe bet was that you
wouldn't.

>But for you to tell me that I'm supposed to apologize

Just callin' it like I see it, and standing up for some of my fellow
listers.

>for an innocuous remark about Jeff - THAT JEFF
>HIMSELF DIDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH - you're even crazier than Mark is.

Innocuous. <chuckle>  Hmmmm.
And, if you think for a minute that Jeff didn't have a problem with
it.......
Funny isn't it?  Now you're using Jeff to defend yourself.
Sounds to me like Jeff rose so far above you he's got you all bamboozled.
That's the kind of class act that you felt compelled to insult and smear
after he was gone.
Don't you see?  Jeff just wants peace on this list.  The same as most of us.
How was it that Mark put it???......Can't help it if you screwed the pooch?

>Stay in Tune Kevin.

Well, at least I know you read my posts.

>To quote Mel Brooks:  "I'm surrounded by assholes!"

That's nice.  I prefer to let people speak for them selves...........
Here are some of your best quotes......

>"I feel your pain Kev - I had quite an exciting exchange with Jeff (among

The

list,

>I don't know, I felt the same kind of backstab that Kev apparently is after
>Jeff said that he never talked to me off list.  Spooky, ain't it?

And you wonder why Mark called you on it?
Come on.................
Stay in Tune,
